Isomer Transition - Bright Lights, Big City [2009, file, dope recordings]

august 2009
lbl: Dope Recordings
#: DOPE53
electronic
techno, minimal, tech-house
320kbps

A.		Bright Lights, Big City (Blackout Mix)
B.		Bright Lights, Big City (Dub City Mix)

Producer - Richard J Valeo

note: "Dope Recordings is proud to announce the release of its newest single,
Bright Lights, Big City, by the NYC based artist Isomer Transition. This
release features two remixes of the original version created by Isomer
Transition himself. Organic, yet scientifically precise, these two tracks
speak to a wide range of tastes.

Bright Lights, Big City (Dub City mix) – The name speaks for itself, a warm
and driving dubbed out jam destined to move the late night crowds. Warm
synth washes matched with a relentless and subtle bass line are the core of
this mix. The Dub City Mix is a soulful, heartwarming track reminiscent of
the early days of massive warehouse raves and early morning sunrises.

Bright Lights, Big City (Blackout mix) – This mix is a haunting and
slightly more experimental take on the original. Attention to detail
presents itself through a slow buildup of sonic structures that slowly
coalesce into the soul of the track. Starting off as a sparse soundscape, the
sounds meld into a rhythmic crescendo that releases into a pumping dance
floor groove." - Dope Recordings.

Al Tourettes - Dodgem / Sunken [2009, vinyl, apple pips]

october 2009
lbl: Apple Pips
#: Pips008
electronic
dubstep, techno
320kbps

A.		Dodgem
AA.		Sunken

Producer - Alec Storey

note: "Deep tripping techy styles from Apple Pips with their second drop of the week. Al Tourettes hails from Bristol and follows in that rich heritage of electronically enhanced bass music, folowing the tech-stepping lineage from the Full Cycle crew or Tech Itch through to Peverelist and RSD with two intricately programmed and darkly tinted killers. 'Dodgems' on the A-side is more compatible for the dubstep crew with skittering 140bpm syncopations also belying an electro influence from the likes of Two Lone Swordsmen and Ae, while the flipside cuts into a tricky techno groove reminding of Kontext with a more driving intent. If you've checked any of Appleblim's DJ sets recently you'll have no doubt heard both these cuts rinsed out." - Boomkat.

Steinhoff & Hammouda with Dionne - Touch [2009, vinyl, smallville records]

3 june 2009
lbl: Smallville Records
#: SMALLVILLE 13
electronic
techno, minimal, deep house
320kbps

A.	Steinhoff & Hammouda With Dionne -	Touch
B.	Steinhoff & Hammouda -	You Are (Jus-Ed U.Q. Euphoric Remix)

note: "As one of the founders of the Smallville Records retail store and record label, Hamburg’s Julius Steinhoff has a proven ear for quality when it comes to forward-thinking dance music. The same refined taste can be detected in Steinhoff’s handful of collaborations with Abdeslam Hammouda (and, in this case, Dionne as well). Last year’s “Tonight Will Be Fine” EP was built of cottony hums, cascading melodies, and patient grooves. Their sophomore EP offers warm, deep house to get lost in — a perfect compliment to the immersive, deep techno of the year’s other Smallville release. The undeviating repetitions of the title track’s cheap-sounding piano stabs lend a touch of minimal, but also summon a cloud of magician’s smoke, diverting our attention from developing modulations in the percussion that discretely reward a full play to the end. By the time the sunny, “woo-woo” vocals begin five minutes in, we only faintly perceive how far we’ve come." - Chris Burkhalter, Little White Earbuds.

Floating Points - Vacuum EP [2009, vinyl, eglo]

september 2009
lbl: Eglo
#: EGLO002
electronic
deep house
320kbps



A. Vacuum Boogie
B1. Truly
B2. Argonaute II



Producer - Sam Shepard

note: ""Vacuum Boogie," as the title suggests flows upwards, straight into air. The melodies reach, reach, reach until you're nearly ready to dive into the track yourself and push them where they so obviously want to go. This sort of unresolved tension is where Points, AKA Sam Shepherd, excels. You're either hanging on to the edge of your seat or hanging on to your dancing partner waiting for the hit. The same goes for "Truly" and "Argonaute II," on a more muted scale. The groove is paramount, the instruments locked into a Bolero build that only rarely gets extinguished, only to be built up again. Like Plessow, Shepherd's talent on this particular EP is in creating glowing bits of soul and then simply letting them run their course. Both producers often create more challenging work elsewhere, but Raw Cuts and Vacuum Boogie are a classicist's dream." - Terry Fonseca, RA.

Producer - Arne Weinberg

note: "A very nice release indeed here from the pairing of Arne Weinberg and Echocord. Coming as the first 12" in the colour series it's a really nice meditation on the dubbier techno sound from Arne and he hits exactly the right spot with it. The way he uses his more Detroit influenced sounds as well gives it a really deep feel but with plenty of subterranean groove."

Producer - Mark Stewart

note: "The first Claro Intelecto album, the electro-dubtronica record Neurofibro, came out four years ago. Since then, Mark Stewart has relocated from Ai Records to the deeper trenches of Manchester’s Modern Love, which last year put out his much drooled over Warehouse Sessions series. Pounding, floor-friendly and sharply produced, that series of four 12-inches delved into the darker sides of techno and electro, but Metanarrative is something different again. Where the Warehouse Sessions were functional, Metanarrative is emotional, although, in typical Claro Intelecto style, it is an album distilled from an extensive array of influences—electro, IDM, Detroit techno, Berlin dub techno." - Janet Leyton-Grant, RA.

note: "Hiding behind the enigmatic Dcast Dynamics moniker is our favorite Shad T. Scott. Maybe better known as Gosub. The well known Miami based artist once again joins forces with the frustrations department to drop one of his best outings ever. These experiments go deep. Way deep. Melancholic melodies drowning in running tape delays.. wobbling analog pulses that seem to come from beyond the aquatic triangle. Dcast Dynamics continues to explore where The Other People left off."

note: "Brendon Moeller skanks out on a big-room dub-techno flex with the 'Big Shot EP' for Connaisseur Recordings. The title track is executed with the srt of spacious quality and expect you'd expect from Moeller, building mammoth dub-chords over powerful kicks, while the 'Big Shot Dub' switches to a dub-rolled skanking breaks mode with broken-garage syncopations and the requisite amount of stretched Berlin dub-chords. To keep the dance heavy 'The Boost' and 'The Urge' make their mark on the 'floor with strong and uplifting variations on the dubby tech-house theme."
