Union of Antwerp synthesist David Edren and Tokyo minimalist Hiroki Takahashi is a fit so natural as to feel preordained. Both traffic in subtle shades of contemplative electronics, marked by patience, space, and poetic restraint. And both have rich histories of curation and collaboration – Edren in the duo Spirit & Form alongside Bent Von Bent, and Takahashi as proprietor of the Kankyō record shop, as well as one fourth of cosmic ambient quartet Unknown Me. Mutual fans of one another’s work, th…
Venndiagram
Back in 2017, Black Sweat produced a lovely reissue of DSR Lines Spoel. It was easily one of our favorite records of that year. Continuing their dedication to its creator, the label now brings us yet another stunner - a reissue of a little heard tape only release from 2013, Venndiagram. Like its predecessor, we can already tell that this one is going to top our year end lists.

Spoel
Appeared only on cassette in 2014, this new edition in double Lp features 3 unreleased tracks. David Edren's organic minimal electronics are never majestic or magniloquent (like Klaus Schulze or Froese) and never neurotic or aggressive for that matter. It is a soft music, delineating echoes of sacred geometry in the emotional balance between oscillations, frequency modulations, and rhythmic pulsations. Diamonds, mineral combinations, emerald luminescences, hydrogen cascades and stratospher…
Analogie Van De Dageraad
Taller than most members of The White Sinterklaas Club or Boyd Rice, DSR Lines (or David Edren’s) stack of analogue synth beauty is finally towering over the dwarfs that roam the abandoned Smurf villages right next to Synth Niklaas! It surely is a pleasure to see him play beyond Belgium: a die-hard, and for a very long time one of the country’s best kept secrets in electronic music. Slowly expanding from throbbing analogue dreamworlds to Battiato-style joy, this record is a reissue of a c…
