Sagans – Coherence
“IDM amazing genre. This is an uncompromising journey to other worlds, with its own laws of sound synthesis. All that must be done before listening is to throw out all existing thoughts out of your head and completely immerse yourself in the boundless bowels of this track. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

Employ AI technology to create otherworldly visuals for 'Coherence'
Enigmatic multi disciplinary creative collective known as Sagans, have employed the use of artificial intelligence technology, to create a stunning, otherworldly Blade Runner-esque music video metaverse for their latest single 'Coherence' due this June.
They say: "The first video is called 'Coherence' and it is about a city that is constantly changing and evolving. The video shows how the city changes over time, and how the character gets lost and adapts to the changes. The video is a mix of different styles using the latest AI algorithms, some latent diffusions but also using a neural-style transfer algorithm, similar to the algorithm used to create the 'DeepDream' images. It's really interesting to see how the AI collective was able to create something so unique, definitely an interesting take on the cyberpunk genre."
About Sagans:
The group known as Sagans is made up of music artists, graphic designers and AI researchers who create music and visuals with the help of artificial intelligence. The group was formed in 2022 and consists of members from all over the world. The AI Collective is dedicated to creating new and innovative ways to create music and visuals, and they believe that artificial intelligence is the key to unlocking new creative possibilities, something that is truly unique and expressive.

Souvnear -True Sunshine
“When you hear beautiful chords, you feel amazing harmony with all your notes, you automatically immerse yourself in the entire track. And if all this sounds in conjunction with a beautiful vocals and accompanied by Organic House rhythms, then the price is too high to let it miss out of the field of vision. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Когда вы слышите красивые аккорды, ощущаете всем своим нутром потрясающую гармонию, то вы автоматически погружаетесь в трек целиком. А если всё это звучит в совокупности с красивым вокалом и в сопровождение ритмов Organic House, то цена такому треку слишком высока, чтобы пропустить его из поля своего зрения.”

After the success of his debut album "Via Havana", the American pianist Joachim Horsley comes back with a new track "Mountain King Cha Cha". Derived from the the Edvard Grieg’s masterpiece "In the Hall of the Mountain King" (written for Hendrick Ibsen’s theatre piece "Peer Gynt"), this new piece picks up his interbreeding work between European Classical music and Afro-Caribean music, offring to the audience a cheerful and inspired artistic encounter.

Lotus is a five-piece instrumental band that has evolved and grown over 20 plus years. They were early adopters of fusing electronic beats and sounds from dance music with jam music, but also drew on psych-rock, post-rock, disco, funk and jazz. All of these influences are present throughout ‘Tar Pits’, which evokes a sense of mystique and allure in the listener’s mind.

Les Cooper – Anyone
“A fabulous, slightly mystical symphonic intro slowly fraught on his palms, like an ice cube, when a voice -es cooper- is replacing him. Its timbre can be compared with a cup of hot tea, which melts the hearts of its listeners. Rhythm comes from the middle of the track - and real miracles begin here. You realize this as soon as you listen to the track from beginning to end. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Сказочное, немного мистическое симфоническое интро медленно таит на ладонях, словно кубик льда, когда ему на смену приходит голос -Les Cooper-. Его тембр можно сравнить с чашкой горячего чая, которая растопляет сердца своих слушателей. С середины трека вступает ритм - и здесь начинаются настоящие чудеса. Вы осознаете это, как только послушаете трек от начала до конца.”

On his debut solo album, Noise, Toronto-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Les Cooper is stepping out on his own with eight tracks that delve deep into his sonic toolbox, exploring the worlds of electronic rock and dream laden pop.
Noise includes the sweeping and pensive “Anyone,” which features lush string arrangements written by Cooper. The track reflects on an individual perpetuating a cycle of harmful behaviour while navigating relationships.
For over two decades, Les Cooper has been regarded as one of Canada’s leading music producers, earning JUNO Awards for his work with The Good Lovelies, and further JUNO nominations for albums he produced for Jill Barber and Madison Violet.
With Noise, Cooper has finally allowed himself to push the envelope with all of his creative faculties. After laying down basic tracks with some of Canada’s most in-demand session musicians, Cooper describes his process as reassembling them almost like Lego pieces until, in most cases, the final songs were unrecognizable from the original takes.
Against this shape-shifting musical backdrop highlighted by Cooper’s skill with electronic treatments and string arrangements, the effect of listening to Noise can be both soothing and unsettling, depending on one’s state of mind.
