pianetisintetici - 侍栽培二 🌾

Pre orders / previews now live on Bandcamp and voidvinyl.eu 🌀

The second release on Samurai Music sub label Saibai welcomes Italian sound-world-builder Pianeti Sintetici for a richly rendered foray into dynamic electronica that moves like a set of vibrant ecosystems.

Davide Perrone has developed his Pianeti Sintetici (‘synthetic planets’) alias to explore the idea of creating imaginary worlds through teeming, densely layered arrangements of modulating synthesis. He’s previously delivered spellbinding albums and EPs to respected labels like Astral Industries and Hypnus. On SAIBAI2, Perrone ably blurs the lines between percussive, textural and melodic parts, letting voices bend and warp as each sound evolves through the labyrinthe lattice of his constructions. This is electronic music so dynamic and ever-shifting, it sounds positively sentient, and yet there’s a strong emotional sentiment that binds these fantastic visions together as sincere expressions from a grounded, human perspective.

True to Saibai’s focus on deeper, mellower flights of fantasy away from the dancefloor, SAIBAI2 offers a kinetic, engaging listening experience dressed up in opulent tones that gleam, shimmer, bend and flex with hypnotising dexterity.

Brendon Moeller - 侍栽培一

Pre orders / previews now live on Bandcamp and voidvinyl.eu

Released on Limited Edition (200) 12” and Digital

Samurai Music heralds a new seam of spacious, rhythmically curious exploration with the launch of the Saibai sub label, opened in mesmerising fashion by Brendon Moeller.

The overarching premise of Saibai is to nurture a more delicate, meditative inversion of Samurai’s physical, dense sound, leaning less on the dynamics of the dancefloor while holding true to the intricate drum play and dubby principles that bind the label’s sound together.

In this open-eared, inquisitive environment, Moeller is the perfect fit as an artist with decades of diverse offerings across all kinds of dubwise manifestations. On 侍栽培一 (SAIBAI1), the US-based, South Africa-born producer stretches out with a live-sounding drum palette and exquisitely rendered synth work loaded with detail, character and organic flourishes. It’s a light-footed approach with plenty of air flowing through the mix, but there’s considerable weight in every notch of the production, not least the imposing channels of sub bass coursing beneath the frequency range.

侍栽培一 is a feast for the senses, wholly immediate and front-loaded with fascination, setting the perfect tone for Saibai as a platform for charming, immersive electronics that take a fresh diversion from the fundamental core of Samurai’s sharply defined sonic focus.

Pianeti Sintetici enters the Samurai world with his first contribution — the second cultivation of Saibai, a dynamic ecosystem of evolving rhythm and resonant synthesis.

🌾 Pre-orders for the first two Saibai releases start tomorrow via Bandcamp and voidvinyl.eu

04/11/2025

Brendon Moeller inaugurates Saibai — a new branch of Samurai Music focused on depth, texture, and rhythm — with 侍栽培一, a contemplative first cultivation that drifts between ambient reflection and dub-techno gravity, rooted in 85/170 flow.

🌾 侍栽培二 is revealed on Thursday.

🌘 Pre-orders for both titles open this Friday.

30/10/2025

A new branch of Samurai Music begins: – Saibai 侍栽培 🌱

A quiet cultivation — music shaped in stillness, rooted in instinct. Drawing from Samurai’s sonic language, it lets light in — shifting textures, low-end warmth, and rhythm as breath.

Saibai cultivates spacious, organic forms of electronic music. Stripped of excess and centred on atmosphere, each release invites deep listening and slow unfolding. Some pieces drift, others radiate — all tuned to the same inner signal 🌕 🌀

Pre orders for the first two releases emerge November 7 — on vinyl and digital. Full details next week

It’s our pleasure to welcome Pianeti Sintetici to Samurai Music

A cartographer of imagined worlds — music as terrain, rhythm as shifting gravity.

His two upcoming EPs for us trace fault lines between pulse and stillness, pressure and release. Every sound a fragment of an unseen planet — metallic air, weightless bass, echoes folding back on themselves.

Precision as meditation.
The first orbit approaches.

🚨OUT NOW – The Untouchables - Lost Knowledge LP

Today we celebrate the arrival of Lost Knowledge – the third full-length LP The Untouchables have delivered for Samurai. A deep dive into the shadowy, razor-edged world only they can summon. Years in the making, this record embodies their signature pressure: stripped-back menace, sub-heavy movement, and pure sound-system intent.

Big love and thanks to Kate and Ajit for the constant flow of killer music and fun collaboration, and of course huge respect to everyone who has supported this project.

* Vinyl is slightly delayed, digital is available now at all the usuals - Bandcamp is our preferred purchased point
