EAST 3 & EAST 4 NOW AVAILABLE

Dear Listeners - SEA STATE here - welcome to new experiences!
a weird world at all, but we didn't hung our heads in desperation since the last releases. here is new amazing stuff for you, wherever you walk/swim/fly/dive around the planet or beyond.

EAST3
Reutoff "No one's Lullabies"
MC + download code, 80 copies
 
east3 is here: We hug Reutoff from Russia! for Sea State they come out with rhythmic Lullabies to highlight what dreams may wait inside the hollows of a human mind. or maybe they just wanting our legs to take over. in case you want to try the last-mentioned, the bouncy "Ice in my Liver" is recommend. but be sure you're shaved off properly before dancing, it's a delicate track right from the Red Room. the hymnic opener "Slumber Song" speaks of a dystopian design, we expect a mostly uneasy sleep. in the end the song turns more and more into something cleansed, the tunes get thinner, get separated, revealing another level of perception. the b-side hits with two more nocturnal statements. while "Edge of Oblivion" is a kind of noisy slow motion stomper, the clockwork-like "Dead Templar's Groove Manuscript" reminds us of the placid beauty of Brendan Perry's solo works. remaining a final question: who is "No one"? a persona non grata, a classified subject? or no one, nobody? as you know; the question is also the answer.
a further profound work is the package made by Mogul Nudge. the heavy cardboard slipcase is re-covered with the sheets of a book (about nursery) from the beginning of the 20th century. as you may have presumed there are some stamped marks and a sealing sticker on top of it all.
 
may the groove be with you!

EAST4
E-Musikgruppe LuxOhr "Der Planet der Melancholie"
MC + download code, 80 copies
 
E-Musikgruppe LuxOhr - once we saw them playing live in Turku/Finland. They were awesome! we wanted them to do a release on SÜE and we never lost their trace. and now we only say one word: PARTY! it's done and we're happy with the result. Pertti Grönholm, Kimi Kärki, Jaakko Penttinen and Ismo Virta gave their band a german name as a bow to bands like Tangerine Dream/Klaus Schulze, Can and Kraftwerk. the list of the synthesizers, drum-machines, guitars, sequencers and samplers they use is as long as the finish winter. and what they do with the listed equipment is playing, creating, is timeless space music. the six tracks of "Der Planet der Melancholie" are part of the early sessions for "Kometenbahn" recorded in 2011/2012. close the door, disable the doorbell and the mobile, disconnect the phone, shut down the computer. turn on your stereo - a auto reverse tape deck would be the optimum solution. and then let the sound of traveling asteroids, drifting radiation, rotating gas and breathing galaxies occupy your room. as welcome guests. all you have to do is listen. and to be thankful to be a part of the universe.
the heavy cardboard slipcase is exclusively designed and made by Mogul Nudge for SEA STATE.

ANTLERS MULM "SILBERGRAUER STAUB" WRT021

a rerelease. yes. it's the debut album of Antlers Mulm from 2003 - not less than a stunning thing. it's dedicated to German S. Titov, to the kosmonaut, to the nonconformist.
coming from his former art project Radio Eichenlaub - a constructivist's/cut up wing foundation operating with samples of tracks from the Pet Shop Boys and Orchestral Maneuovres in the Dark - Hans Johm showed up a brighter side with his new incarnation.
Glissening electronic scenes, sparingly used synth layers, heavy doses of war drums and drum-machine sounds, the narrative voice; something began to move on, spreading it's audiovisual aesthetics - a origin was created. with it's "song-but-not-a-song"-songs Antlers Mulm was and is still a fundamental influence on sonic projects and bands. "silbergrauer Staub" bears the weighty seed of "snowscapes, feral loops and grubby dub" - as Hans Johm characterizes Antlers Mulm a decade later. time matters; through the years the one man project became a three head band: Stephan Spreer (Llovespell, Sunday Strain) and Martin Rauch (Johnny Punchout) came to stay.
the album has four intros or interludes: "cleaner", "c2", "c3" and "c4". name meets function.
the journey opens with "Morgenrot" a trip towards sunrise and also into the arms of a circle of questions or consequences.
"feeding you" is a second waking, a stumbling, a pre- and a post-delirium at the same time and one of THE tracks of the album. two words: relationship, society.
no words needed for one of the A.M. classics; "untruth", you may have witnessed the continuous variation of this track while seeing A.M. live from time to time.
listen to "im Meer" for the beauty of slightly deranged electronic instruments. not more.
"out of line" - a stomper that worships WoMen and nature as the facts that they seem to be. the following tracks in german language are a kind of key code in the whole ensemble: "silbergrauer Staub" and "ferne Freunde". endless space breathes, make sure you've fasten the seat belt while listening to these cosmic orgies. feel the charme, the hugging coldness, the stumbling of earthly elegance...rejoice and feel left alone. pause.
the simple but complicated "Gipfelsturm" is a on-and-on drumming instrumental dedicated to another hero of the 20th century; David Ben-Gurion. a reverse allegory. hope, youth, energy.
with the epic "sunloop" (21:06 minutes) this album let loose itself into the universal roundabout.
goodbye earthlings.
welcome.
