Solid release on MBF The usual quality tech house sound that I have come to expect from Piemont. Big on air reactions to the quasi mono remix. Have also played out with this beast.
Pick of the releases had to be Reshef on trapez. Tribal monsters that cross deep house tech even with a bit off prog. Deep a and biri have been the stand out artists in Europe along with Kaiserdisco and Edu and coyu imbernon for me over the past 6 months and I thank you for introducing them to me. In January have played all for versions on the air. Marcu Sur remix is special. Will stay with me through till the summer definitely. Spoiling us with this so early in the year.#
Halfstereo, Istanbuld fm, radio (T): cool collaboration. Just like a orac sound. And more forward thinking. Like it especially Never Beat
Tomaz, telenet, radio (BE): Never Beat is excellent. Good groove and catchy vocals. Playing !
Kanal K, radio (CH): Played and charted
Fresh Meat / Berlin Mitte Institut, radio (GER): Nice minimaly groovers, thank you !
Diversions Radio (CA): Played and charted
Radio Calade (FR): Played and charted
Pulse radio: (a]pendics.shuffle, AKA Kenneth James, remains one of EDMs most enigmatic stalwarts - his proto-tech, tightly-tooled bleep-excursions finding favor with high-brow chin-strokers and SanFran raver-crusties alike. James (who's prolific output also encapsulates monikers Eight Frozen Modules / K.J. Gibbs / The Premature Wig and several more) seems as perpetually enamored by sound-design as by dance-floor mechanics - with a knowing sense of tech-savvy mirth perhaps only paralleled by a certain Richard D. "Aphex Twin" James, yet never falling captive the Warp imprint's occasionally superfluous experimentalism. His discography is immaculate - Mille Plateaux, Force Inc and a plethora of genre-defining imprints a testament to his well-earned respect. Similarly, collaborative partner in crime , Dilo, with confident embrace of 4-to-the-floor techtonics, has consistently inverted and elasticized the dance-floor template, embracing experimentia for labels like Igloo and Adjunct Audio, whilst remaining fantastically groove-savvy. Exhaling unexpected shards of organic minutiae, weird dub-treatments and vocal oddity into the atmosphere cleared by the falling kick-drum, this is a producer-pairing as well-synergised as one might expect. Dilo's take on electronica has veered toward the darker and more reverent end of the spectrum, whereas Mr Shuffles persistent "P-Funk" sensibility, has ensured productions rarely veer into techno-sophism. For all the clicks, pops and psychedelics, Mr Shuffle came to dance. Probably drunkenly, pants falling off a sweaty arse, glass of red-wine in hand. So, to Trapez 105 - the most recent offering from a label seemingly intent on expanding its well-established repetoir to include an increasingly diverse palette of contemporary techno sounds. Whilst many labels are trimming-fat and 'pressure-cooking' their sonic buffets to palid generic mush, Trapez are venturing deeper into the wilds of the underground cook-out; drunken-noodle and peppery tofu-surprises, washed down with strong moon-shine liquor and a deft pull from the shisha-pipe. With Trapez 105 Shuffle/Dilo offer a rather-more jacked-up Trapez sound. Its house-music, but not quite as we've known it; with a deeply swung and 'booty-bass' driven sound - less Berlin minimal, and more Chi-Town pump and hum and mystery. Compelling, very fresh stuff, and all refreshingly impure. Cowboys Flyers, the A-Side cut, sounds brilliantly coked-up, saturated with nods to an almost Doors-esque psychedelia - whispered vocals and double-entendre, mutant, dripping organ-lines and relentless cowbell. Detuned lyrics swoon with curious mentions of flying cowboys, floating people and anything being permissible. Somewhere above, Lucy stares down from her Diamond encrusted Sky. Eight and a half minutes later, and the trip feels like it could continue for days, but probably shouldn't - James' dystopic vocal ringing with the wry irony Hunter S Thompson peddled so brilliantly. Only fractionally more sober, is B-side, Never Beat, vocal-driven and blipped-out, though more tightly-tooled than its predecessor, but rolling on with a fathomless sub-bass and kick-combo, offset with shavings of sizzled-out hats and dubby echos. Deceptively minimal stuff, laced with super high-end detailing and effortless flow. The real mirth, as with much of Shuffle's work, reveals itself upon repeated listens - sub-mixed vocal gesticulations dripping with sci-fi and substance abuse, glued together in a soupy, Floyd-esque sort of psych-funk. No More No Less (b2) astutely closes a trinity of knowing paranoia; rich swaggering montage of original vocals and classic interview snippets from Bob Dylan's earliest years - hit tone all spit and fire when confronted with mainstream media assault, demanding political dissection of his work. Again, the over-arching tone is one which marries a woozy hedonism with more cerebral/analytical approach to music-construction as an intrinsically political act. Subversive, opiate-laced techno at its finest...
