Incienso

DJ Python's first solo record since the release of the critically-acclaimed album Mas Amable. it's too nice to just have your thoughts float in the space of your head endlessly forever and you don't have to decide which you focus on unless you want to i got a stone to skip 6 times across the water on the river i grew up by now i like to get the heaviest rocks and the lightest ones and drop them in the river to see which sink most beautifully I have no interest in saying the right thing anymore just the true thing --- DJ Python on collaborating with UFO Parfums and Candle Object: "we all appreciate each other’s work and thought it would be nice to do something together :) both candle Object and ufo Parfums are involved in music and inspired by music. Dj Python is inspired by candles and perfumes. To light a candle spray your wrist or put on a record . Same thing yo (~,’"

From the creator of Deep Reggaeton and the hit record ​"​¡Estéreo Bomba! Vol. 1​"​, DJ Python, returns with the first masterful full length album "Dulce Compañia". Comprised of eight ethe-real, banging hits of the most unique and thought provoking calibre - mixing Deep House, Shoegaze, Trance, and of course, Reggaeton - these songs-not-tracks slide over the Dembow in the unique way only Python can dream up. Rated E for Everyone.

Pitchfork gave it a good score of 7.4! Anthony Naples and Jenny Harris are well known for their work on The Trilogy Tapes and Proibito, and are also known for their work on the Harris' "The Trilogy Tapes" and "Proibito" labels.
DJ Python is also known for the smash hit "Dulce Compañia," his 17-year debut LP on Slattery's hot label, Incienso.
DJ Python's second album is an immersive sound that blurs the boundaries between ambient and dance music. The second album from DJ Python, who has been known around the world as "deep reggaeton", is an immersive work that blurs the line between ambient and dance music, updating Jamaican dance sounds from dancehall to reggaeton to dembow with a deep ambient perspective. The preceding single "ADMSDP" (B2), which features poet/performer LA Warman on vocals, is a masterpiece. The soundscape is a complete knockout!

Tokyo based producer and City-2 St. Giga label owner DJ Trystero arrives on Incienso with his debut LP “Castillo”. Over nine tracks Trystero explores uniquely spontaneous modes of rhythm and sound - turning ambient, breakbeat, electro, techno and house into blurred sonics that expand on their own time.

Ex Wiish is a fleeting dream. The new musical project of Ben Shirken, a sound artist and composer based in New York City. Shirken is the founder of record label & performance series 29 Speedway which features improvisational electronic music, 4-point guerrilla sound installations, live multimedia performances and has hosted Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Poncili Creación, Debit, Pent, James K and various other New York-based artists. Shirken also produces for and plays modular synths in acclaimed free jazz group ‘Nu Jazz’ with Dan Orlowski of electronic hardcore staple Deli Girls. Their debut record, “Shards of Axel'', is out on Incienso June 23, 2023. Born from a story-based video game composition; the listener finds themselves as the disoriented main player respawned into a harrowing, metallic landscape, wandering through cable ridden labyrinths, caught in progress traps as digital noises grind past submerged cityscapes.

The first Huerco S. album in 6 years, glyding into new territory with a pool of glassy synths, padded subs and cascading arpeggios, pretty much unlike anything Brian Leeds has made under any alias. "His sound palette has broadened to absorb and refine trap’s un-smeared geometrics and drill’s taught rhythms amongst the gaseous bodies and soul-piercing ambience that has garnered such acclaim; Where those previous veins were rooted in the pre-Columbian civilizations of his native Kansas, Plonk reflects the mournful sodium glow of cities at night, street corners that light up with painful moments of clarity you wish would disappear."

An intimate, mesmerising record about loss and change, sorry i thought you were someone else is K-LONE’s most personal album to date and his debut release on Incienso.

Made after his father’s passing, the album became a place of escape and reflection. A warm, hypnotic space to drift within.

Properly mesmerising, deep, minimal and dubby techno-house mutations by Brian Leeds (Huerco S., Pendant) in Loidis mode, shuffling a custom production palette to dead sexy effect across nearly 2 hours of prime material tipped FFO Villalobos, Anthony Naples, Marc Leclair, Shinichi Atobe, Wolfgang Voigt . A reliable font of modern ambient and dance musics since the early 2010s, Brian Leeds continues to come into his own as Loidis with his most personal love note to the ‘floor. ‘From The Toolkit Of Lovers’ spans a dozen tracks that take their sweet time to stretch out and absorb heads within fine-lathered, hands-on arrangements of robust subs gelled with writhing textures and hypnagogic hooks. Offered as his “meditation on life, love and dub”, it works a damn treat for minds in lucid or altered states and bodies in motion, working from the toes to the nose with the same sort of sensuality and grooving impetus that gained cult acclaim to his RA.965 mix and preceding album ‘One Day’, also for Anthony Naples & Jenny Slattery’s Incienso. Call it micro-house, dub techno, or just plain old hypnotic dance music, the results see all Leeds’ circles bleed into a definitive album statement slanted to off-peak hours when mind and body are still whirring. It plays out with loose sequencing primed for sinking into, or equally well as a bevy of aces for discerning DJs. The lip-biting micro-funk of ‘TT Stunt’ follows the clipped strut and 3D-dubbing of ‘Towlift’, a filtered, discoid house zinger in ‘Possession Centre’, and exquisite vocoder processing in ‘Horse on Wheels’, next to the restless bassline of’ Running Rich’, and Villalobos levels of detail in the corkscrewing drums and fruity pucker of ’Shopgirl Keepsake’. The final one-to of subaquatic dub house ‘The Lowest Word’ and compressed pulses to ‘I Would Be Glad To Be On It’ see off an immaculate 2 hours in Leeds’ presence - no doubt a hard act to follow for whoever has the aux cord at the afters.

This is a tribal experimental sound where the horizons of another world appear, whether it is a fantasy or a cutting edge? Marco Shuttle's third album, Cobalt Desert Oasis, features a varied collection of music recorded across a two year period. Often traveling to remote destinations, Marco would come back to Berlin with field recordings, images, and other inspirations to process in his studio and turn into sound. The theme of the journey turns into a something more abstract than a travel diary, where environmental sounds blend in with modular synthesis, drum machines, effects and analog oscillators resulting in a cinematic listening experience where psychedelia, ritualism, and mysticism weave together in a sort of alien soundscape - that as the title of the album suggests, is reminiscent of a parallel utopian world. The album is rich in complex rhythmics, and more than in any of his previous work, has strong acoustic elements. Amongst other percussion instruments, Marco used the Tombak, a traditional Persian hand drum capable of reaching a very wide range of frequencies - from deep round subby toms, to high pitched sharp rimshots, throughout the record. Marco Shuttle is certainly not new to these sort of elements, but in Cobalt Desert Oasis he brings the environmental element of his sound into the forefront in a way that takes the listener into a hazy expanse where it is sometimes difficult to distinguish the machine elements from the natural - and where the music almost becomes a visual experience, which relates to Marco's own photography used throughout the cover and insert images.

The debut album of Istanbul born, Berlin & Copenhagen based artist Nene H (real name Beste Aydin) titled ‘Ali’. In this record Aydin has used her background as a classically trained pianist and her deep, foundational knowledge of musical theory to synergise contrasting electronic compositions and the mental process of mourning the death of a loved one. Born as a tribute after the passing of her late father, Aydin has found catharsis through a personal odyssey, the reflection of which can be seen through these 8 tracks. Raised in a traditional Turkish family and now living in Germany with its westernized lifestyle, informs the intersections of identity and duality that Aydin exists and creates from within. This consolidation of identity has pushed her to seek solitude and confidence in the power of being able to represent the process of her existence in the scene as a Middle Eastern woman with Muslim upbringing.

Incienso chase Loidis’ acclaimed AOTY ’24 with Raven’s lush debut salvo of wistfully warm and fuzzy ambient house. RIYL NWAQ, Anthony Naples, Huerco S., Actress, James Stinson.

Effortlessly comfy as your favourite fleece sweats, ‘Gnosis’ dials into a real classic vein of lounging ambient music where spirits of US new age and neo classical waft into beatdown, deep house and vaporous dub techno. It’s not their first rodeo - there’s a string of self-released works behind this one - but it’s likely to convect their sound far and wide amid good company on Anthony Naples & Jenny Slattery’s cherry picking, NYC-based label.

Each cut hits a proper sweetspot between nostalgia jogging electronica and afterhours couch-gouch with the slow-burn efficacy and groggy seduction of THC edibles. The breezy petal scatter keys and high-tog tape fuzz of ‘Gnosis Theme’ invite comparison to BoC via NWAQ, before the album sashays between a series of charms with the dazed arps andwrabling chops of ‘Endless Edition’ thru the shine-eyed beatdown of ‘Jupiter’, to Actress-alike drifting keys on ‘infinite Edition’, with a dead sweet lift reserved to the album’s final 3rd of half step dub techno ‘In Loving Memory’ and San Fran disco kiss ‘Unlimited Edition’, to the Drexciyan impulse of ‘Final Fade Sync.’ 

No brainer!
