TLM087: Deepchild - Dirt Thief
With Safeword, Jens Bond, and Tomas Jirku remixes
Closing out a banner year for the label, we couldn't be happier to release the latest from one of our favorite artists: Deepchild. Dirt Thief is the Australian transplant's first fresh output for Thoughtless since last year's Neukölln Burning full-length, and it sees him furthering his exploration of mutant techno-soul hybrids with a newfound big room emphasis: chugging low-end, blistering synths, disembodied vocals and smart percussion battle for supremacy with compelling results. Following recent successes on Mobilee, Safeword makes his Thoughtless debut with a driving remix that builds steadily through analog bass and thematic textures swirling into delirium. A Berlin institution, Jens Bond delivers a gloomy yet utterly engaging tech-house rework, while Canadian producer Tomas Jirku bends the original into a multitude of newfound shapes while managing to enhance the post-apocalyptic mood on hand. As a final statement, Safe Passage presents Deepchild's unique take on peak time techno with equal parts enthusiasm and finesse, solidifying his identity as an essential artist on the global circuit...
