donnacha costello - 6x4

Já tinha ouvido falar, mas ainda não tinha tido oportunidade para apreciar o seu trabalho. A primeira abordagem vai para este vinil de grande qualidade. Techno minimal, influência de Detroit e Chicago. Quem quiser pesquisar mais, este 6x4 é o segundo trabalho do projecto 6x6=36.

quesh - love

Duas músicas. Dois lados distintos. Um som de qualidade. Não conhecia, fiquei a conhercer. Recomenda-se.

"The third release of our Love series presents Quesh who again comes up with a postmodernist reference work where he is skillfully juggling most different styles and quotes. His variations of up-to-date electronica are ranging between minimal club tunes and most refreshing listening electronica in the style of Massive Attack. 'Katharsis' is a wonderful club hit with this summer's necessary trance attitude. A really massive groove combined with unique sounds and a perfect arrangement. The track's elaborate tension leaves nothing to be desired and is definitely a real dancefloor smasher."(forcedexposure.com)

james figurine - eleven numbers

Segundo vinil deste artista, que desta vez deixou o trabalho para os talentosos homens da Kompakt DJ Koze e Superpitcher. Pop e electrónica juntar, duas faixas para se deixar levar.

"Koze is first up and throws together a version of 'Apologies' with the grace and style that made his debut album so affecting. Reminiscent of Farben-era Jan Jelinek (which we all know was his best work) this is a slow burning, brooding monster of a track with all the minimal charm and dancefloor push you need to get those dancing feet moving. Flip over and you'll find the Superpitcher cut, one for the sweaty clubs of Cologne this is a synth-heavy monster based on the track '55566688833' and gives the great Georgio Moroder a run for his money."

reload - evolution

A mailing list da flur chega ao e-mail, salta à vista o palavreado sobre este "reload-evolution", um triplo LP, "evo001, evo002 e evo003". É a reedição de três primeiros EPs lançados pela editora "evolution" em 1992 de Tom Middleton e Mark Pritchard. Originalmente eram "the reload", "the autoreload" e "the biosphere". Essênciais para compreender o movimento da música electrónica.

"Some of the deepest, rawest and most forward thinking Techno music produced to this day re-released and re-mastered in one highly collectable, limited edition package - we've had endless queries about this so demand is sky high with a very limited amount of stock available to us - dont hang around on this one. Mark Pritchard and Tom Middleton released some highly limited records on their Evolution label which later became Universal Language. Tom and Mark continued to produce many great records as Reload, Global Communications, Jedi Knights, Harmonic 33 and several others projects. These 3 records represent the beginning of the electronica movement which they started with like minded artist such as Aphex Twin, The Black Dog, Autechre and others. Mark and Tom were strongly influenced by Derrick May, Juan Atkins, Carl Craig, Kraftwerk, Mike Dunn and Richie Hawtin to name a few and they produced some amazing records which sound just right 15 years on from their original release. This is a super-limited package with all three of the ultra rare original releases bundled together. If you want one - Hurry. Tracklisting in full : Can't Wait Tonight, Death Of A Disco Dancer, Birth Of A Disco Dancer, Feedback Energy, Nasu, Ptyzm, Peschi, Teque, The Biosphere, Nemm, Mosh." (Boomkat.com)

zentex - kuitu

Techno minimal. Finlandês. Terceiro original. "Kuitu" nome do vinil, nome de uma grandiosa faixa. Corrosivo. Imperdível.

"Its "hallowe'en" everyone - Jari Marjamaki, the finn behind Zentex, blends iberian styled fours with the johnny carpenter tune you know and love. This version is a world away from the recent xela hand-stamped tribute - all cheese and grapes here, living la vida loca or somesuch, we should warrant. Flip for two proper tracks - bass troublers from the darker side, and such a relief too."(Boomkat.com)

james figurine - forgive your friends

James Figurine era um nome desconhecido, e a compra deste vinil foi devido ao lado B, onde se encontra uma remistura de John Tejada, que também comecei a ouvir à custa do vinil. Imperdível este "forgive your friends" na versão original e trabalhada.

Da boomkat:
"No surprise then that this is a minimal techno remix ep – and included here are two of the scene’s champions; the always reliable John Tejada and Kompakt’s bright young hope The Field. There’s also an electropop workout from David Figurine in case the minimal techno isn’t doing it for you, but for those of you that like to pop your body to drastically less beats than you should be, the Tejada remix is a real winner. Taking the analogue synth squelches from Figurine’s original track, Tejada reworks it into a moving club epic, trust him to get it right huh?"
