Dza http://soundcloud.com/dza Sasha Dza is an electronic music producer from Moscow, Russia. electronics

As one of
the first in Russia to begin experimenting with a new form of instrumental
hip-hop, he has been perhaps the most prominent face of a genre that is swiftly carving out its own niche in the world beatmaking scene. He is the founder of the well-know Russian musical community How2make Crew, which has organized crazy parties in the most unusual places, staged what could be the world’s first s

uccessful “hip-hopera” and toured throughout Russia and Europe. After being selected to participate in the 2010 Red Bull Music Academy in London, he signed record deals with Error Broadcast and the Bristol-based label Black Acre. A cassette-only version of his now-legendary beat tape Five-Finger Discount was released by Error Broadcast last year, and Black Acre has issued a 12” featuring Sasha, fellow Moscow musician Mujuice and L.A.-based rapper Non Genetic. For such a short musical career, Sasha has proven himself to be extremely prolific, producing countless tracks of his own on a daily basis and doing remixes for a variety of artists — from American and Russian underground rappers to the British heavyweight Hudson Mohawke. Dza was also prominently featured in last year’s extensive feature about the new Moscow electronic scene on the famous American music site Pitchfork.com.

Looks like it’s gonna be a great day today.

The moment is finally here: our second device is ready.

Tomorrow we start shipping the first Concrete orders, and we hope to send out all pre-orders within the next week.

A huge thank you to everyone who pre-ordered, supported us, helped us, shared kind words, gave feedback, tested early units, and believed in what we are building. Thank you to our family,friends, our distributors, and everyone around Light Reft who made this possible.

The first batch is almost gone, but there is still a small chance to jump on the last train and order Concrete today. Only a few units are left.

And if you miss this one, no worries. We will start working on the next batch soon. The exact date will be announced a little later.

Thank you so much.

Seven years ago feels like yesterday. And at the same time, knowing you for only seven years somehow feels like we’ve known each other our entire lives. I love every second I spend with you and our daughter. Thank you for walking beside me and supporting me through this journey, which isn’t always easy. You are my greatest inspiration in life. I love you.

Concrete is a new instrument that we developed, marking a new stage for Lightreft.

At its core, Concrete is a stereo saturator and analog filter. An instrument designed to work at the edge of control and destruction. It can enrich a signal with subharmonics, add warmth, weight, and body, or move in the opposite direction and literally break the sound, turning it into a raw, unpredictable texture. This device is not about correctness. It is about character and outcome.

The idea behind Concrete largely grew out of my interest in brutalism. In Eastern Europe, brutalism is often perceived as something heavy and oppressive, associated with gray everyday life and pressure. In Japan, it is read very differently. As an extremely functional, honest, and even expensive language of form. The same concrete, but a completely different meaning.

Concrete itself is neutral. It has no inherent color. Everything depends on context, on the environment, on where and why it is placed. The same is true for Concrete as an instrument. Saturation and filter together can work as a tool for subtle enrichment and enhancement of sound, or become a means of total destruction and reconstruction. It all depends on perspective and intention.

Pre orders for Concrete at a reduced price are now open on our website.

A lot of time passes on the JR Line. These rides exist on their own, separate from goals or destinations.

Outside the window it is almost always the same. What changes is the weather, the light, the season, the mood. That is enough to register a shift.

Sometimes these minutes fill with thoughts. Sometimes with tasks. Sometimes with nothing at all. All states are equal.

The train moves, and something moves with it. There is no need to control the pace.

Just motion, repetition, and subtle changes. That is enough.
