After the great start of the budenzauber label with
Ali Khan there are now following 2 artists who can
be confidently entitled as the guardians of minimal
Swedish techno. Together as Skugge & Stavöstrand,
Johan (Skugge) and Mikael (Stavöstrand ) show us
again the unexpected. Both are well known from
their releases on Onitor, Defrag Sound Processing,
Tic Tac Toe, Mille Plateaux, Force Inc, Textone,
Contexterrior, Source, Thinner and of course on
the own label Mitek.
Their manner to avoid traditional structures and discosuperstar
thus constantly building a pulsating scaffold of sounds with little changes and developments in sound and rhythm is almost unique. Thereby they
aspirate a new life in electronic music and take the November 2005
listeners to higher and unexpected level. That’s why
they are said to have a not existing attraction to the
floor but there’s nothing to notice on this release.
The A side is a pure ear candy with a sweeping
constantly changing melody, a lot of groove and breathtaking vocals. On the flipside the tracks appears more subtle and deeper as 2 hypnotic grooves. The record is already played by Djs like Mathias Kaden, Wighnomy Brothers, Cio d’Or and James Holden. So it’s definitely a
must have opus for the next months.
