OW12 Loek Frey - Nayan

Some things simply need time to brew. Loek Frey returns to Omen Wapta with his third release on the label: Nayan. The Amsterdam-based artist shares a long-standing friendship with label head Woody92 – keeping each other in motion as artistic peers since the label’s inception. Over time, they’ve built a shared archive of material: sound sketches, tracks, and sonic touchpoints – an ever-evolving third space where their paths continue to meet as they move in parallel. Nayan emerges from this deep-rooted exchange: a distilled six-track release that fuses Frey’s cerebral intricacy with the label’s primordial uncanniness, reaffirming both as key voices in a yet-to-be-defined sonic realm.

Diving into the release, Frey’s signature remains intact – tactile, spatial, and rhythmically precise – but a subtle shift is at play. A paring down. A move toward something more reduced, maybe even more patient, yet no less absorbing. The A side leans inward: deep pressure, spectral traces, and an undercurrent of tension that never quite resolves. It’s music for staying with, not escaping from. Flip to the B side and the palette widens – kicks land heavier, patterns loosen, textures fill the full frequency field. Still deeply rooted in the Wapta world, but with an assertiveness that whispers rather than shouts. Somewhere between absence and force.

With Nayan, Loek Frey carries his Omen Wapta narrative into new territory – merging restless experimentation with dancefloor intention.

PREORDER: https://virtualforestrecords.bandcamp.com/album/diplopia

French-based Virtual Forest Records delivers an intercontinental ode to its corner of the international underground with 'Diplopia', a 13-track compilation featuring collaborative contributions from pole to pole. With increasing synergy, France's psy-tipped fringes mirror that of Australia's, pushing a depth in sound and space that each country's raves and DIY festivals have become known for.

French producer RM Estali's collaboration with Naarm/Melbourne's LOIF, 'Cutting The Rind', is a perfect example of this synergy. Chunky snares lay the groundwork for a near conversational dubstep wobble, before it settles into full psy-breaks swing. 

Of the collaboration, RM Estali shared that "Declan (LOIF) came to play in Paris at Les Amarres last year, and finished his set with some nasty dnb tracks. When I found out we were gonna make a tune together, I was like, 'what don't we have a shot at making a track like that?'"

'Diplopia' releases on Wednesday, November 26 via Virtual Forest Records' Bandcamp.
