Werewolf!König x Female!Reader: Controllable Urges
Trigger Warnings: NSFW, smut, mating seasons, monsterfucker reader, slight shifts, knotting, multiple positions, werewolf!AU, creampies, biting, scratching (fic under the cut)
Tumblr media
Werewolves were something you’d always believed only existed in fairytales and made up stories about feral, nature connected men living in the forests. But after encountering your own boyfriend and finding out his true identity, you fully believe that they’re real. “K…König?” you ask softly when you knock on his door. There’s a soft growl followed by a whine, as if warning you to keep away. But knowing how stubborn you were, you weren’t gonna leave him alone or go away. “Are you okay..? Need me to come in there and comfort you..? Is the shift a bit painful this time around?” you ask from behind the door. “N-No…I don’t need help…do not come inside the room…please…” König growls. Just the way he sounds, all raspy and dangerous, it intrigues you more and more. You only become more worried, leaning against the door a bit more to hear what’s going on.
You can hear him panting heavily, like he’s out of breath after running around for so long. But it also sounds slightly…pained? There’s also the soft and faint sound of something squishing. “Are you…sure you don’t need any help?” I ask. “Stop asking me…hffh..~ s-stupid questions, Maus…it’s dangerous for you to c-come inside my room right now…” König growls softly. Scowling slightly, thinking he might be in some actual form of pain and doesn’t want to be treated and scolded by you, you decide to just open the door. And once you do, your eyes go wider than the moon when you see exactly what your boyfriend’s been doing this whole time. He’s in heat? Or is it a rut? You can’t really remember much about the proper terminology; all you knew was that he was in what would be considered his “mating season.”
But the sight…it’s one to truly see. König’s not completely in his other form; only his forearms and a bit of his back are covered in fur. His signature little wolf ears and tail are sticking out from his head and back, and his claws are sharp against the skin of his own thigh, piercing through and making him bleed as the other grips his throbbing cock. His eyes pierce right into yours as he scowls, growling lowly at you, “I…I thought I warned you…” he seethes. Your eyes soften a bit and you cautiously walk over to him, gently pushing him back into his bed. “What are you doing…?” König whispers breathlessly, letting his back fall onto the cool, silk sheets of his bed, making him wince softly. “Shh…I’m going to help you, okay…?” You whisper softly. Carefully, you then climb over him and sit in his lap. You can feel him burning through his dampened clothes from all the sweat and lean in, kissing him.
König’s eyes go wide and he’s doing all he can to make sure he doesn’t lose control when you sit in his lap and kiss him. He’s kissing you back gently, not trying to get too into it to where he ends up accidentally hurting you. Pulling away for just a moment, you stare at his piercing blue eyes. “I told you…I will help you whenever you need me to…” you say. Your tone is gentle and calm, sweet and kind, and it’s everything König needed right now. His eyes seem to water a little before he eventually speaks up, “I just don’t want to hurt you…I-I’m insatiable right now…” Your smile just seems to get a bit warmer when he says this, “Oh König, it’s okay—I told you I’ll help you whenever you need me to. Now tel me,” You begin, gently putting your hands into his hair and messing with his little ears and giving them gentle squeezes.
König instinctively leans into this, moaning softly when you start to scratch behind them. “Do you want me to help you through your mating season?” you ask firmly. He nods furiously, whimpering softly. “Take off all your clothes then. I promise I’ll take you as you are, but don’t be afraid to lose control—I understand and I trust you to not hurt me too badly,” you say, climbing off him to let him take off his clothes. Sitting back up on his knees, König snarls as he straight up just rips every piece of fabric on him off. You see little scars all over his body, presumably from him digging his claws into himself to keep his self-control. “You know, you could’ve told me you were a werewolf a long time ago—I would’ve been more than happy to help you out the way I am now,” you say.
König’s eyes then dart to yours and you could see that he’s already begun to break free from the chains of his self-resistance and self-control. His pupils are dilated, shoulders heaving up and down as he stares at you and breathes heavily. “Are you…really sure that…y-you’ll be okay with this? Because once I start…” he says in that same raspy voice, snarling softly, “I won’t be able to stop until I’m satisfied.” You feel your entire body fluster at this display he’s giving you. He looks so much hotter in this form, and you can’t help but wonder what it was like to fuck him this way. “I-I’m okay with this, promise…I want to help you however you need…” you say softly.
König nods and then begins to rip your clothes off, letting the shreds fall completely to the floor. “H-Hey!” you can’t help but exclaim, only to yelp slightly when he lifts you up and lays you down on your bed faster than you can even register. “I’ll buy you new clothes, now hush.” König says. He climbs over you as you lay there in your bed, and you can feel him slightly slap himself against your clit. Your eyes go even wider than before and you bite your lip. “You feel wet enough already…surely I won’t need to worry about teasing you,” he also sniffs the air, snarling softly. “Smell it too…I just want to get this all over and done with…” König groans.
And just as he says this, he lifts your legs up to your chest to put you into a mating press position. “K-König, wait!” you protest to no avail. There was no getting through to him now once he slowly pushed himself inside of you, making you whimper and moan from the stretch. König takes no time to start, gripping the backs of your knees so tightly his claws dig into you and he starts to thrust himself in and out of you. He’s much more forceful than he was every other time, driven by his primal instincts to breed you during his mating season. You can’t help but squeeze his cock tightly, as his tip practically kisses your cervix. It’s a bit painful, but you can’t help moaning over and over from how good the pain feels.
König’s larger stature still manages to tower over you even when he’s got you like this, his eyes screwed tightly shut as he thrusts into you like there's no tomorrow. The man’s lost himself to the pleasure of you clenching tightly around him, the pleasure of getting to finally mate somebody. “Fuck, Maus…you were practically made for me…I’m going to fucking mate you and make you mine~” König growls, opening his eyes slightly as he then lets a groan rip from his throat. You can’t say anything at all, accepting your fate as his forevermore as he pounds into you. “Y-Yours…I’m all yours…~” you manage to say through your helpless, wanton moans. “That you are, Maus.” König growls.
“Du gehörst mir...du bist mein Kumpel... und ich werde dafür sorgen, dass die ganze Welt es weiß…” he whispers. Suddenly, König pulls out of you before flipping you onto your stomach, raising your hips so your ass is in the air. “This is much more fitting…” König snarls as he pushes back into you. Your hands grip the bed sheets tightly, moaning even louder as his unrelenting thrusts resume again. One of his clawed hands has moved down between your legs, rubbing at your sensitive clit to make you squeeze him tighter from the sensation. “König!~ T-Too much!~” you whimper loudly, turning your head slightly to look at him.
König says nothing, giving you a sharp-toothed grin and a cocky laugh as he continues. “This is nothing yet…you’ll be begging and crying for me to stop the further I go. Like I said,” he leans down to whisper in your ear as his fingers rub deeper and harsher circles against your clit, “I won’t stop until I’m satisfied. Pass out, become completely incoherent—I’m not stopping any time soon.” he snarls. Your hips jolt slightly, as the sensation of him rubbing circles against your clit and his forceful thrusting becomes all too much. Your eyes start to slightly roll back, drool dripping onto the mattress as your jaw hangs open to moan loudly. König’s pushing you further and further towards the edge.
Feeling proud of himself, he then pulls back slightly and sinks his sharp canines into the nape of your neck right as he pushes back into you and finally finishes off inside of you. All of this has become far too overwhelming and you can’t help but finally have the most intense climax of your life; and many more were to follow after this. Your entire body’s quivering as he keeps you in place like this, hearing him growling from the satisfaction of being able to do this. König continues to thrust harder, until you feel something else press into you. Completely sheathed inside you, his knot keeps him in place as he finally reaches his own climax.
A loud snarl followed by a howl resounds in the room, his hips still slightly grinding into you until he stops. You remain there on the bed, whimpering pathetically as the stars in your vision slowly dissipate. “Fuck…oh my god…wh-what is that..?” you ask softly, trying to wiggle yourself away onto to find yourself stuck in place. König leans back down and licks the blood seeping from his bite away, as if tenderly comforting you after. “Maus…I just knotted you…you’re mine forever now that I’ve left my mark on you…” he says softly, continuing to lick at your blood. “O-Oh…how long does it last…?” you ask again, curious as to how his werewolf anatomy works.
“Hm…I’m not too sure…I haven’t knotted anyone before…” König whispers. He then presses soft kisses into the sides of your neck, moving his hands from your hips and cunt to gently roam around you. “Guess we’ll just have to wait…” he whispers once more. “Fuck…and it’s just going to be this all night, isn’t it…?” you ask. König chuckles softly, sighing happily as he gives you a nod. His ears are flat against the top of his head, tail slightly wagging. “S-Sorry, but yes…” he apologizes. You just huff through your nose before laughing softly, “It’s okay…wow…so this is what it’s like to get fucked by a werewolf…” you say softly. König nods once more and continues to tell you sweet things in German, praising you and thanking you for doing this with him.
Oh yeah…it was definitely going to be a long night.

NSFW Alphabet
Smut warning
Spencer Reid x fem!reader
Tumblr media
A-Aftercare (what he’s like after sex)
After being rough, he would clean you up
Make sure that you’re not hurt and if you are, he would message you anywhere you needed it
He would put you in the bath or shower and wash your body and hair
After he would apologize profusely if he thought he was being too rough on you
“Baby, I’m so sorry. Please forgive me, I didn’t mean to-“
“Spencer, shut the fuck up. Your dick is magical.”
B-Body part (his favorite body part of yours)
Definitely your thighs and your hands
He likes gripping your thighs when his head is between them
He just lies grabbing them in general
Like there isn’t a time when he’s not touching your thighs sexually or not
Your hands bc he loves when you wrap them around his dick
Or when he has you in missionary and your hands are squeezing his biceps
C- cum (anything to do with cum)
He loves it when you tel him to cum inside you
He’s more than happy too really
When he doesn’t finish inside, he pulls out and comes on your stomach or back— whichever way he has you
D- dirty secret (😈)
He secretly likes it when you take control in bed
He also secretly likes it when you can barely form words when he’s inside you
When you try not to moan but end up failing miserably
When your nails tear skin as they claw at his back while he fucks you
E- experience (How experienced is he?)
Honestly, he wasn’t very experienced before he met you
He had only had sex with four or five people before you
He was a natural though
He knew how to pleasure you by asking you
Spencer is an obedient man— when you tell him you need something, he’ll do it
F- favorite position (what’s his favorite position to have you in?)
He absolutely loves missionary— seeing your face change with every thrust
But he also likes it when you ride him so he can look down and see his dick disappearing inside of you
He also likes when you’re face down, ass up gripping the sheets and arching your back
G- goofy (is he serious or funny during sex?)
When the moment is right, he will definitely laugh with you during sex
Like if one of you laughs, the other one will too
The giggly sex is most likely gonna be in the morning— don’t know why it just seems like that
He’ll be wayyyyy more serious at night
Like after an argument or on an anniversary
Or to celebrate something one of you achieved
H-hair (how well groomed is he?)
He’s not completely shaved down there but he’s not like wild
I’m gonna stop there bc this one is just awkward to me lmao
I- intimacy (how intama
He’s literally the most romantic man during sex
I just can’t like stop thinking about how he would hold you hand against the bed as he went a little slower than usually if you had a bad day or something
When he’s feeling a little down that day, he’d pull you close, chest to chest
His face either hidden in your neck or his eyes closed focusing on your proximity and the way you feel
J- Jack off (when does he get himself off?)
Any time he’s away on a long case
I fully believe that at some point, y’all were having sex and this man just like whipped out a Polaroid camera, took pictures and stuffed them in a secret pocket in his go bag
He’d call you when he knew you were awake and asked if you could face time and show him your 🍒
He’s more subby when he’s masturbating because he’s desperate
K- kinks (what kinks does he have?)
Dirty talk
Praise link
Overstimulating (you)
Dacryphilia (idk if this is a kink but he loves to have you in tears)
You calling him doctor— Ik it’s weird but he’s literally a nerd 😭
Semi-public (I’m talking like bending you over a desk in an empty private office at the BAU)
L- location (where?)
Like I said previously— in an empty private office
Mostly in bed tho
Or bent over the kitchen counter
Or the bathroom sink, making you watch yourself in the mirror
M- motivation (what turns him on?)
You
Literally just you
You could be watching tv and he would be turned on watching your tongue poke out the corner of your lips
He gets turned on when you’re washing dishes
When you’re eating
Literally doing anything
N- no (something he wouldn’t do)
Hit you— he would never inflict pain on you, that’s stepping over a line
Letting someone watch y’all do it/3somes— you’re enough for him
Toys— he wants your orgasms to be from him and him only (and yourself if he’s ever away on a case and you need release)
Spitting on or in you— he thinks that’s weird and a great way to spread germs (and so do I)
O- oral (what’s his preference on oral sex?)
He absolutely loves giving you head
He’s a god at it
He can literally make you come with his tongue in lest than 3 minutes
He loves the way you taste— he thinks you taste better than coffee and sprinkled donuts
Spencer also loves when you give him head
Loves the feeling of your lips and tongue wrapped around him
Thinks that it’s the second best feeling in the world (your pussy being the first)
He loves the way your mascara runs as you take him almost touching the back of your throat
P- pace (is he fast and rough or is he slow and soft?)
A little bit of both
He likes going rough when he needs it- like when he’s mad or frustrated with someone or something (obvi if you ask him to go fast and rough he will— mans will do anything for you)
He’ll go slow if he’s stressed or sad
And if you want it slow he’ll give it to you slow
Basically it depends on the situation
Q- quickies (his opinion on quickies)
He doesn’t really prefer quickies but if he has to leave for a case for a few days he’ll get one in before he has to leave
He likes to take his time therefore, quickies almost never happen
R- risk (is he willing to take risks?)
As long as you want it and it’s not one of the No’s, he loves to experiment
The riskiest thing you’ve ever done is handcuff him to the file drawer in the BAU and suck his dick, almost getting caught by Derek
Laughing when you guys experiment bc he’s all like “this is what I’m supposed to do, right? Are you sure?”
S- stamina (how long can they last? How many rounds can they go?)
Spencer has built up stamina from the start of your relationship to now
He used to only be able to last about 4-5 minutes inside you
Now he can go up to 10 minutes if you go straight to the penetrative sex
If you fore play, he lasts about 7 minutes
He can usually go three rounds before he has to stop
You’re usually a wreck after he’s done
T - toy (does he use toys?)
No
U- unfair (is he a tease? How does he react when you tease him?)
Spencer was too shy to be a tease in the beginning of your relationship
So you were the first one to do the teasing
You walked out of his bathroom the morning after your first time having sex in a towel and dropped it right in front of him
You pretended to not know that his eyes snapped to your dripping wet body and hair and walked towards his closet picking out a pair of his boxers and his shirt
“If you out those clothes on your body before you let me fuck you, I will lose my mind.”
His first time he teased you he called you good girl when you threw a crumpled piece of paper into the trash can from your spot at the kitchen table
“What the fuck did you just call me?”
“What do you mean?”
“If I get on my knees will you call me that again?”
V- volume (how loud is he when doing the deed?)
This man is LOUD
Not like the whiny loud tho
He’s the deep, sexy kind of loud
He’ll breathe all heavy in your ear
He’ll groan loudly and throw his head back when you on your knees for him
Sometimes Spencer will even bite his lip to try not to be loud but It never works
He’ll praise you and then moan low and deep right after
W- wild card (random)
When he plans to have sex, he’ll crate a playlist
“Good girl.”
“Keep those pretty eyes open, for me.”
Loves hearing your moans—
Loves it when you say please/ when you beg him for something
Will turn into a sugar daddy bc he can’t say no to you lmao
He’ll buy you anything you want or even glance at while you guys are walking around a store or a mall
Thinks buying you lingerie is awkward so he just asks you to get a certain set and gives you his credit card
The king of worrying
“Are you okay?” “Does that hurt?” “Did you come? We can go again i swear-“
X-ray (what’s going on under those pants!?)
8 inches
Literally didn’t expect it but after you got used to it you were like
“Oh yeah this is right.”
Y- yearning (how high is his sex drive)
This man can’t go a couple hours without being horny
He’s always wanting you
He always imagines you moaning his name
Long story short, he’s always horny and your sexy ass is to blame
Z- zzzzz (How quickly he falls asleep)
He waits until your comfortable and asleep before he even thinks about going to bed
He scoots closer to you and wraps his arms around your chest and falls asleep a while after
————————————————-
OMG WHAT IS THIS—
Oky sorry i love you babes! Hope you enjoyed this and I don’t totally suck at writing HCs. There’s a SFW one coming soon tho!!! Stay tuned for that and chapter 12 of Sick Surprise :)

Zajok a nappaliból – Traxelektor 2024. 09.
Tumblr media
Megkaptam, hogy az augusztusi Traxelektor „elég befelé fordulósra sikeredett, kicsit hiányzik a tánci” – teljesen jogos. Sajnos a lemezpiac tevékenységére nincs semmiféle woodoo praktikám. Olyan ez, mint szegény Rossi bácsi esete a magyar labdarúgó-válogatottal, hogy ha nincs jó magyar csatár, akkor nincs jó magyar csatár, és én még honosítani se tudok, lejjebb vinni az elvárásokat nem fogom, „amíg ennél a háznál vagyok, állat lesz!” S közben a dolgos szeptember végére totálisan becsengettek, feléledtek az urak / hölgyek, és elkezdtek ömleni az új megjelenések. Ami különös, hogy legalább 15 kis-nagylemeznek álltam neki, hogy erről biztos írni fogok. Aztán sorban a Traxelektor-ba került a java, és búcsú. A másik egy örömteli sose volt még, hogy a Spotify-os Traxelektor 100%-ban azonos a sajáttal.
Tumblr media
A bolgár Etien Slavchev nagyon komoly ember. Az Evitceles műveitől úgy lohad a jókedv, mint a Roxfort-tóparti virágok dementorrajzás idején, és csak azoknak javallott, akik képesek értékelni fagypont környéki kompozícióiban a kristályosra dermedő cseppek sűrű, kesernyés zamatát. Tavaly, amikor először hallottam tőle, talán a Velvet Room nyitó szerzeményét, a Waiting For Too Long-ot, tudtam, valami értékesre bukkantam. Lassú ritmika, mélyben csavarodó szintetizátorok morognak, tompa basszusok verődnek a semmibe, portisheadi tempóban haladunk, és végtelen alattunk a mélység, de csak sejtjük, mert oda nem látni le. A szeptemberben, a vadiúj olasz kiadónál, a Repulse Xplosif-nél megjelent Erosion hibátlan folytatása a fent megidézett tavalyi albumnak, sőt talán kicsit polírozottabb, nedvesebb ambient-ként dereng, némi fényt is visszaver. Szófiában, Slavchevék utcájában már szeptemberben is november van.
Tumblr media
Azt is mondják néha a barátaim, hogy a Traxelektorok nem éppen „csajozós zenék”. Hát, nem! Nagyon nem. Bár itt van ez az átható tekintetű, mélykék szemű olasz hölgy, bizonyos Mariachiara Troianiello – marhajó neve van – na ő biztos nem akadna fent egy Evitcelesen se.
Tumblr media
Dehát aki a Katatonic Silentio művésznevet választja, nem gumicukorral hinti a rivierát – vamos a la playa, la bomba estallo. Hallottunk már tőle klub-orientált szerzeményeket is, de a mostani Axis of Light EP nagyon nem az a világ. Meditatív, köldöknézős, technóbol derivált, broken beat-tel asszimilált bluedub. Egyetlen, világos gondolatkör ötfelé szelve, porítva, lassú tűzön pirítva, denaturált olasz konyha, granulált fény Mariachiara-módra, egyétek kedveseim!
Tumblr media
Múlt hónapban nagy csinnadrattával vezettem fel a hónap jeles kollabját, most nem lesz ilyen! Pedig lehet megérdemelné(k), csak valahogy a minimalista tálalás áll közelebb a szerzőkhöz / viszont lesz nostop „tánci”. A főleg Rrose néven ismert, kaliforniai születésű, londonban élő Seth Joshua Horvitz (Sutekh) 12 éve van a pályán, bár saját kiadójánál, az Eaux labelnél szereti megjelentetni anyagait, szorosan kötődik a berlini Stroboscopic Artefacts kiadóhoz (Lucy, Dadub és többiek), legaktívabb, kvázi fénykoruk a 2010-es évekhez köthető, amikor újrahúrozták a nemzetközi techno lantját egyedi megközelítésmódjaikkal. Rrose technoja mindig is valami réveteg, pszichedelikus, industrial / experimental / tribal elemekkel átszőtt árnyékos matéria volt, és ez sejthetően már így is marad. Lindsey Wang számára fontos Berlin, konkrétan ott él, és őt meg Polygonia néven tessék keresni a line-up-okban, s ha megtaláltátok, ne is hagyjátok ki! Ő annyira fiatal, hogy még csak négy éve van a pályán, mégis 4 albumot és 15 kislemez/ep-t hozott össze, ami magasan átlag feletti termékenység, róla is írtam már többször. Ami fontosabb, hogy Polygonia soundja nagyon felismerhető, kihallani benne az ázsia gyökerek aromáját, a természetközeliséget, melyek organikus fúzióban vannak a modern textúrákkal, legyen az deep-techno vagy downtempo. Tehát adva van egy mosolygós kinai lány és egy queer zseni. Hat nagyon erős felvételt tartalmaz a Dermatology címet kapott minialbumuk, témája a testünk, a bőrünk, a keringés, és a légzés. A negyven perces pszichoaktív poliritmika és moduláció kettejük tökéletes kollázsa, a Stretcher közepén megtapasztalható, milyen érzés lesz, amikor majd egy perc alatt kicserélődnek a Föld mágneses pólusait – lehet rá gyakorolni. A háttértörténet se rossz: Seth 2022-ben kereste meg Lindsey-t, miután feltűnt neki, hogy gyanúsan sok Polygonia lemez kezd el feltűnni lemezgyűjteményében. Ő egyébként nem keresi túlságosan a különféle együttműködéseket, de itt érezte, kapcsolat van a zenéhez való hozzáállásukban. Mint kiderült Lindsey pedig 2018-ban annak hatására kezdett el technoval foglalkozni, hogy Rrose-t elcsípte egy fesztiválon. Az ellipszis bezárult.
Tumblr media
Valószínűleg a zenetörténet legizgalmasabb fejezetei olyanok lehetnek, mint a Seefeel históriája.A Sarah Peacock, Mark Clifford, Iida Kazuhisa és Shigeru Ishihara felállású post-rock/shoegaze banda 1992-től kezdve addig alakult, finomodott koncertjei alatt, míg az évtized közepére a sheffieldi IDM hangzás egyik legnagyobb nevévé nőtte ki magát. More Like Space [EP], Quique [LP](1993), Starethrough [EP](1994) Succor [LP](1995), Ch-Vox [LP](1996) a Warp Records, a Rephlex és Astralwerks kiadók büszkeségei, s persze a Time To Find Me Aphex Twin remixei, az Artificial Intelligence II-re beválaszott Spangle. Majd volt egy évtizednyi szünet, négy-öt éve aktív újra a társaság. A sheffieldi repülőgép-anyahajóról, a WARP Records kifutójáról rajtolt az új album, az Everything Squared. Ez a Seefeel teljesen ugyanaz a Seefeel, még az elemei is változatlanok, mint Sarah kürtjel hosszúságú vokáljai, amiket bevonzz Clifford gravitációs mezeje, elkezdenek körözni, összeütköznek, keverednek a régebb óta ott keringő elemekkel, és minden megy magától, mint a nap az égen.
Tumblr media
Nem szerepel az albumajánlóban a Banco De Gaia új lemeze – vagyis most már szerepel – meg szarul is érezhetném magam, ha nem először fordulna elő, hogy albumszinten nem éri el az új BDG album a mélyebb elismerést. Ugye ez azért kellemetlen részemről, mert Toby Marks – Last Train to Lhasa albuma körülbelül a Pink Floyd – Meddle-lel azonos jelentőségű produkciólént robbant 1995-ben, az ambient-trance-ethno-tribal nagyon bátor kombinációit felvonultatva, fülbemászó dallamokkal, hosszas elszállásokkal, csodálatos utazásba rántva a hallgatóját. S akkor feltette a második albumot, amin 3 olyan ambient remix szerepelt, amik csak 11+36+13 percben fértek el, s mint egy meditáció, végtelenre nyitották a teret. Ám aki átesett a bátor kísérletezés korán, annak már kialakult eszköztára determinálja a lehetőségeit. Vagy ha meg nem, olyan furcsaságokat eredményezhet, mint az új albumot nyitó Mir, az elnyújtott hetvenötös floyd ambepicsax szólójával, vagy más kínosan műanyag pillanataival. Nem lenne rossz album a Trauma (lásd Traxelektor: Electric Sheep, War), csak összességében félrehord, mint a botoxolt jakupcsek thumbnailje.

Sajnos az industrial szcénát is uralja a trendi hangzások követésének homogenizáló, kiüresítő hatása, például hiába szeretnék írni a nagytiszteletű Bill Leeb (Delerium, Frontline Assembly) új albumáról (Model Kollapse), ha annyira közhelyes, hogy a Traxelektorba egyetlen felvételt se tudok behúzni és a Haujobb (Daniel Meier, Architecht) egy hetes albuma, a Machine in the Ghost sincs hónap lemezei között, ez van! Üdítő kivétel, mi több: ellenérv, a Black Dot néven futó balkáni páros, a szlovén Kristjan Kroupa és a horvát Jasmin Mahmić új EP-je. Valahol már az is védjegy, hogy az Italo Moderni-nél jelent meg a Love At Glance, amely négy és hatszámos verzióban is elérhető. Hiába old-school, akkor is friss, menetelős electric body music, néhol kriszbahás, máskor fischerspooneres felhangokkal, Marcel Dettmann és Adrian Marth (az I.M. alapitó-tulajdonosa) remixeivel, amikhez az alapanyag is kellően erős, minden bizonnyal elment az eszem, hogy a Losing Game-ből mindhárom verziót beválogattam a Trx-ba, de oka van. Valahogy ezeket az Italo Moderni kiadványokat nagyon könnyű szeretni, mert ennek a katalán (barcelonai) label-nek a névvel vállat hangzáshűsége folyamatos.

De legalább olyan, mint a neve – gondoltam az előbb Furious Frank dísztelen négyszámosát hallgatva, konkrétan a Wize Guy 3AM Acid verziója szólt. Egyik kedvenc nevű kiadóm, a belga Kalahari Oyster Cult jegyzi a Raving Lunatic EP-t, és ez a cím se hazudik. Gyilkos tánczene, acid-break-techno-trance, néha old-school-nak hat, pedig egyáltalán nem az. De az! Meg sötét is, és többször hallani benne Orbital-szerű elemeket, okosterem, okostábla, okostánc!

Panaszkodnak, hogy Berlinben haldokolnak a klubok, tönkremenőben vannak, és jajj mi lesz! Nos egyfelől a föld alól nőttek ki anno is, még a kezdeteknél, szóval ez a világörökséges megmentősdi nagyon stílusidegen kezdeményezésnek tűnik, másrészt ha valami már nem működik, engedni kell elmúlni, átalakulni azzá, amire szükség van. Na meg, amíg Berlinben olyan tökéletes szobazenék születnek, mint mondjuk az 1996 óta alkotó Monolake, nagyon ezen nincs is mit csodálkozni. Az egykori trió, majd Robert Henke és Gerhard Behles párosa mára csak Henkét jelenti, de ez nem hallatszik kiadványaikon. Henke laboratóriuma csak tökéletes kompozíciókat szintetizál. Utoljára négy éve volt módom magasztalni a Monolake-et az Archaeopteryx album kapcsán, oda is ért év végén a Top 12-be. Egyszerűen csak Studio címet kapott az új album, tíz változóan erős, de minőségi felvétellel. A nyitány egy tisztelgés, a The Elders Disagree-ben felismerhetőek az LFO 1996-os debutalbum címadó és szintén nyitó felvételének, az Advance-nak a hangmintái. Az egyik Henke-féle jolly joker tökéletes példánya a Global Transport az utazós fajtából, míg a Thru Stalactites a kraftwerki metal-electro, nanotech felbontású csúcsterméke. Henke Robotics – Alles in Ordnung!
Tumblr media
Midnight Tribes – a görög Anatolian Weapons, az orosz Sepehrvilágával rokon slow-dance idm vonalról érkezik a wroclawi Splot kiadásában a lengyel Entire – valós személye ismeretlen – egy négyszámos EP-vel. A 100-110 BPM-en tartott pszichedelikus, törzsi techno kompozíciói ködös révülésbe vezetik hallgatót és táncost egyaránt. Nem javasolt vezetés közben hallgatni.
Tumblr media
Nem lehet nem észrevenni a Traxelektor tanulmányozásakor, hogy egy bizonyos válogatásról meglehetősen sok felvétel került be. Szinte mindenben rendhagyó, ugyanis ez az indiai Qilla Records kiadványa és a Chakravyūh címet viseli. A (चक्रव्यूह) szankszrit szó, a létezés örökké forgó kerekére utal, mely fenntartja a változást. Az album kereke ezúttal 12 ország 34 alkotójának esszenciáját szövi össze, és ami igazán fontos, zeneileg erősen célra tart a techno kreatív területeire, mégis széles spektrumot fog át, ezért hallhattok 19 felvételt róla a havi TRX-ban.

Signes avant-coureurs
Signes avant-coureurs Prédication pour le deuxième dimanche de l’Avent par Andrew Rossiter à Villeneuve sur Lot le 10 décembre 2023 Esaïe 40.1-11 Marc 1.1-8
Tumblr media
Tout le monde connait Rosa Parks. Tout le monde a entendu l’histoire de cette femme noire aux Etats Unis qui s’est assise à la place réservée pour un blanc dans un bus à Montgomery (Alabama) le 1 décembre 1955. Elle refusait de changer de place, et elle a été arrêté, jugée et elle a payé une amende de 15$ (Il faut savoir que le salaire hebdomadaire pour un noir était 10$). Rosa Parks était l’étincelle qui a provoqué l’engagement de Martin Luther King dans son combat contre la ségrégation.
Mais avez-vous entendu parler de la soldate Evans? Sarah K. Evans était une jeune soldate en permission, fatiguée de son voyage elle s’assoit dans les premières places d’un bus à Roanoke Rapids (Caroline du Nord) en novembre 1952. Elle refusait d’aller s’assoir au fond du bus sur les bancs réservés pour les noirs. Elle a arrêtée et mise en prison. Elle a fait appel et elle a eu raison dans un jugement rendu en novembre 1955, juste quelques semaines avant l’affaire Rosa Parks.
Tumblr media
Sarah K Evans en 1952 et 2020 (décédée en 2023)
Ou encore qui parle de Claudette Colvin, une adolescente noire de 16 ans, qui en mars 1955 refuse de céder sa place dans un bus à un blanc. Elle a expliqué, « Nous venons d’étudier la constitution à l’école et je sais que j’ai le droit ». Elle aussi a été arrêtée et mise en prison.
Tumblr media
Ce sont des voix qui crient, l’écho de leur paroles résonne plus tard dans la vie et l’engagement de Rosa Parks et dans les vies de beaucoup d’autres.
Esaïe lui-même est une de ces voix, une voix qui indique quelqu’un d’autre, qui proclame quelque chose d’autre que lui. Son message s’incarne cinq siècles plus tard en la personne de Jean-le-Baptiste. Jean est aussi quelqu’un qui vit et indique un autre. Il tourne notre regard de lui-même pour montrer un autre qui n’est pas lui: Jésus, qui a son tour, dans son ministère terrestre, nous présente autre chose que lui, la venue du Règne de Dieu.
Claudette Colvin et Sarah K Evans sont les signes avant-coureurs  qui préparent le terrain qui ouvrent le chemin et qui font aplatir la route de ceux qui viennent à leur suite.
Ces pionniers et précurseurs sont souvent oubliés ou rendus au deuxième rang. Leur combat est un combat qui n’est pas évident et nous ne souvenons pas d’eux et l’histoire ne nous fournit pas de détails de leurs vies. Mais leurs actions sont essentielles afin que d’autres puissent emprunter les chemins qu’ils ont préparé. Sans Claudette et Sarah il est possible d’imaginer que Rosa Parks et Martin Luther King n'y auraient pas eu leur place dans l'histoire.
Jean est justement une de ces personnes. Il sait que ce n’est pas lui qui va sauver son peuple. Il sait qu’il n’est pas celui que nous attendons. Il arrive sur la scène dans le récit de l’Évangile de Marc sans introduction. Là il n’y a pas de crèche, ni naissance, les bergers. Les autres additions folkloriques sont absentes dans Marc. Marc commence son évangile, tel un scénario d’un film blockbuster, avec un personnage hors-norme qui reprend le message de ce prophète de l’ancien temps. Et Jean va vivre en parallèle avec Jésus, ils vont partageaient quelques disciples ensemble et ils suivront chacun la carrière de l’autre jusqu’à ce que Jean est arrêté et condamné à mort par décapitation.
La vie de Jean-le-Baptiste nous dit que le chemin emprunté par ces avant-coureurs n’est pas sans danger et qu’il y a souvent un coût à payer. Tout comme Jean, Evans, Colvin et Parks ont été arrêtées et ridiculisées pour leurs actions. Tout mouvement de transformation a besoin de ces personnes qui œuvrent cachées, qui sont prêtes à être oubliées, qui poursuivent leurs convictions pour semer la récolte que d’autres vont ramasser.
Jean est dans le désert, il vient du désert et il appelle, là où il est. C’est dans le désert qu’il prêche, qu’il baptise et qu’il poursuit sa mission. Le désert était le lieu des démons et du danger. Le désert était le lieu où personne habitait, c’était un endroit à craindre et à éviter. Le désert est le lieu d’errance du peuple avec Moise pendant 40 ans. Ils y ont marché sans direction sûre, ils y sont tournés en rond. Le désert est la place où on se perd.
Mais, paradoxalement, le désert est aussi ce lieu propice pour la rencontre avec Dieu, si nous trouvons le courage de s’y aventurer. C’est ici que Dieu a parlé dans un buisson, qu’il a chuchoté dans l’oreille d’Elie et qu’il a guidé Hagar après qu’elle a été éjectée par Abraham.
Le désert est à la fois lutte et promesse.
Tous les habitants de Jérusalem venaient pour écouter Jean. Ils ont trouvé dans ce lieu aride chose dont ils avaient besoin. Ils ont quitté le confort et la sécurité de leurs maisons de la ville pour venir aux abords du désert pour rencontrer un homme habillé en peau de bête qui leur disait qu’il faut tout changer dans leurs vies.
Ils étaient attirés par le message de cet homme qui se tenait aux marges de leurs vies. Un homme qui ne pouvait pas vivre avec eux, mais qui devait se trouver hors de leur porté. Il représentait cet aspect de notre vie qui n’est pas facilement contenu dans notre vie de tous les jours. Quelque chose dont nous soupçonnons l’existence mais qui ne se manifeste par directement devant nous. Il faut que nous tournions notre regard pour voir ailleurs, pour apercevoir sur la périphérie de notre vision une autre réalité qui prend forme.
Ce que nous cherchons le plus ardemment ne se trouve pas généralement juste devant nous, dans nos habitudes et dans les normalités de nos vies. Mais souvent il est un peu plus loin, marginal à notre existence, là où il faut faire un déplacement. C’est ce que Jean appelle un changement radical de vie. Un moment de réalisation que la vie n’est pas comme elle se présente tous les jours. 
Il se peut que nous devons nous assoir sur un siège qui n’est pas destiné à nous recevoir. Ou encore qu’il faut refuser de bouger au nom d’autre chose que la convenance ou l’habitude de la société ou les lois injustes. Il se peut que notre manifestation n’aura pas de conséquences, que nous serons vite oublié, et que notre action sera considérée comme sans importance. 
Sarah, Claudette, Rosa ont toutes déplacé des rochers qui encombraient le chemin du développement d’une société juste. Elles ont contribué en silence à fait émerger quelque chose qui les dépassait.
Il est bon que nous rencontrons Jean-le-Baptiste dans cette saison de l’Avent, lui qui nous oblige à poser un autre regard sur le chemin de notre vie. Lui qui nous offre la possibilité de saisir une autre réalité dans notre existence, d’entendre une autre voix et de pouvoir nous déplacer vers les marges de notre vie.
Avent nous fait entendre les voix de ces avant-coureurs qui tracent le chemin vers celui qui vient.
Alors si vous n’avez pas encore allumé votre deuxième bougie de l’Avent à la maison, faites une pause juste avant de mettre la flamme à la mèche.
Marquez un instant d’arrêt pour rendre grâce pour ces innombrables personnes qui ont ouvert la voie pour d’autres. 
En silence, tenez-les dans votre esprit. 
Et souvenez-vous de leur engagement et de leur sacrifice.
Pour que nous puissions aussi, dans nos paroles et dans nos actes, devenir avant-coureurs pour ceux et celles autour de nous, pour toutes ces personnes qui cherchent lumière et vérité dans leurs vies.

Today's compilation:
Back to the 70's 1987 Soft Rock / Pop / Country / Pop-Rock
Well, this release from K-tel's Dominion arm probably would've made for a nice collection of soft 70s AM radio fare had it not actually primarily consisted of re-recordings instead 😒. Great tracklist on paper, but like the rest of this series, a very shoddy product. My suggestion to you is that if you're not too familiar with this side of popular American 70s music—because a lot of our remembrance of this decade seems to be more focused on the push-and-pull between hard rock and disco—look up the original versions of these songs instead, because those versions are a whole lot better than nearly everything that's supplied on this CD here.
Me forcing myself to listen to the defiled version of George McCrae's "Rock Your Baby" that's on this release, rather than its original version, which is one of the single-greatest songs that we've ever managed to produce as a species:
Tumblr media
All that said, though, thankfully Dominion still spared a few bucks in order to acquire the original master versions of at least a *few* of these hits. Vicki Lawrence, who at the time was a cast member on The Carol Burnett Show, and then went on to star in the popular sitcom Mama's Family afterwards, delivers her signature hit as a musician, "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia," which is a terrific piece of chart-topping country-gothic storytelling that spins a tangled tale of murder and corrupted small-town power. And then immediately following that is Al Wilson's "Show and Tell," a smooth bit of classic, passionate soul that also went to #1.
Other than those two big gems, though, none of this comp is worth the rest of your time. And it's a shame too, because had Dominion poured some more money into this thing, it really could've made for some good reminiscence on a bunch of quality, easygoing hits; but unfortunately, that was never really their business model 😔.
Highlights:
Vicki Lawrence - "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" Al Wilson - "Show and Tell"
