Having spent the last 6 years of his life in dedication to his craft, Fauxe is one of the few artists in Singapore that continuously pushes the boundaries of music through his experimentation across different musical styles. Pushing the format of freeform music, he has originated multiple musical projects and worked on a myriad of musical collaborations - all of which stem from Fauxe’s humble aspirations to grow as an artist and to musically affect the people around him.
Ikhlas, an album originally released in 2018, is now seeing its release via the vinyl format. Ikhlas is an exploration of the Kuala Lumpur music scene told with samples from traditional Malaysian music. Inspired by an eight month visit to Malaysia, this 30-minute album is a true modern ode to the sonic legacy of the country. Ikhlas covers a wide range of styles through the roots of hip hop, disco and the use of breakbeat inspired textures. A recontextualized project, the album highlights Fauxe’s ability to take music from the past and interpret it with his own flair and individuality to create something truly original.
The Analog Vault is supremely honoured to be working with Fauxe for its first ever vinyl release under its newly launched record label, TAV Records. According to Sharon Seet, co-founder of The Analog Vault, “as music lovers first and foremost, we strongly believe that Ikhlas should be heard by more people, especially to inspire creativity and confidence within the Singapore music scene. We truly believe that a vinyl release of this album will serve to increase the reach of Fauxe’s music to a wider audience. This collaboration is representative to the identity we want to push forward as a record label – we want to showcase music that is distinctly progressive and wildly creative. Faxue’s music is definitively so, while paying homage to his Asian roots.” The album’s vinyl release will see an initial launch limited to 150 copies. Available on 180g LP, this record was mastered by Rohan Mansell and pressed at Zenith Records, Australia.

Sometimes you hear a piece of music and you can’t believe your ears. This was how me and Maft Sai felt when we first stumbled across the music of Soonthorn Chairatanachot and his short run of releases on the Khaen Sang label. The sparse production style immediately marked it out from other molam we had unearthed through hours of searching, and two tracks ‘Kieow Choo Pern’ & ‘Toey Bump’ became staples of our sets, always incurring curiosity from punters and occasionally a query as to whether this was something we’d remixed. Ultimately, this was because the records felt so ahead of their time, though whether this was intentional or not is hard to pinpoint.
Soonthorn was born 16th May 1938 in the town of Sarakham in the north-eastern district of Isan, and passed away on 10th January 2004. He was one of ten children, and both his parents were famous molam singers. He and most of his siblings followed the family tradition and he was trained in the ‘molam glone’ tradition as well as learning to play khaen. It’s claimed that he learned a year’s worth of repertoire in one month, and was playing in public from twelve years of age, touring throughout the region until he was called up to military service in 1957. - Bandcamp

"After the sprawling Rifts, one of drone's top new artists returns with a more focused yet more complex album.
For fans of drone-heavy psychedelia, these are bountiful times. Emeralds, Tim Hecker, Kevin Drumm, Gavin Russom, Ben Frost, Black to Comm, and Oneohtrix Point Never are among a current wave of artists synthesizing their way to a kind of liquid nirvana, sculpting music into impossible shapes right there in the air between your speakers." - Pitchfork

"Ghettoville is the bleached out and black tinted conclusion of the Actress image.
Where the demands of writing caught the artist slumped and reclined, devoid of any soul, acutely aware of the simulated prism that required breakout.
Four albums in and the notes and compositions no longer contain decipherable language.
The scripts now carry tears, the world has returned to a flattened state, and out through that window, the birds look back into the cage they once inhabited.
Spitting flames behind a white wall of silence.
The machines have turned to stone, data reads like an obituary to its user.
A fix is no longer a release, it's a brittle curse. Zero satisfaction, no teeth, pseudo artists running rampant, but the path continues.
R.I.P Music 2014."

We went diggin with producer and sampling extraordinaire Fauxe to find out what his favourite records are at the moment! Have a tour through the jazzier corners of the vault with this man ;)
A music writer (Daniel Peters) and the Middle Class Cigars label head honcho (Nigel Lopez - aka Guided Meditation) go diggin' at the Vault! These two talked about some of their favourite records (in terms of music, direction, artwork and more) and recorded a mixtape to go along with it. Enjoy!
