FUTURE THOUGHT REMIXED (BEN KLOCK & ONI AYHUN)(10INCH)
10 Inch 22.03.10
kontra-musik continues its 10inch remix series. this turn is for ben klock and oni ayhun to get busy and rework tracks from the jason fines future thought album. ben klock now finalizes (may we call it the kontra-musik berghain sessions after shed and dettmann remixes) with a stomping, chicago-esque modern dancefloor cut. by adding vocals but keeping jasons original chords, there is some serious anthem warning to this one. on flip there is some magic! oni ayhun leaves us with a stunning and experimental tech electro kraut excursion. think yello magic orchestra jamming on beats provided by morris day and the time... wooow what a track!! another great piece in the carefully builded kontra musik catalogue! check
finally panic bridge, the label run by ben pest (keyboard player with ninja tune artists pest), releases its second assault on the normal record-buying public. this time around ben and pals (some also from the band pest) bring another 4 tracks that pillage from the dank basements of garage, breaks & techno and empty the resulting goodies onto a carboot table of epic proportions

the second half of the great lengths remixes package offers 3 more vividly contrasting interpretations of album tracks. almost a year on from the release of his debut album >one< and with >saviour of techno< plaudits still bouncing off concrete walls, berghain lynchpin ben klock turns in a remix of is this insanity that distills everything inspirational about both the club and city he calls home. spaceapes cracked vocal is welded to a sort of cavernous piston driven groove while traces of the originals melody fractured into the briefest of shards fight their way to the surface only to sink back into the percussive smog. located well outside of the heavily scrutinised uk hype centres, manchesters rising star illum sphere continues to hone his already distinct sound on the flipsides brilliant orange reworking. a clanking off kilter groove rubs up against an extended mutation of the original melody that pushes the track towards a poignant climax, evoking all the ache of reaching for the stars and landing squarely on ones face.

perc trax returns with its 30th vinyl release with a split ep showcasing the works of both its newest and most established acts.
first up is ben gibson with 2 tracks that feature on his forthcoming perc trax album >in a realized luck of immanence<. both tracks instantly demonstrate what made jeff mills sign ben to his axis offshoot 6277. bens sound is a dense, atmospheric take on the now-classic uk techno sound of surgeon, regis, ruskin etc and both the rolling bass of >vanished between< and the sharp stabs of >wirklichkeit< prove that he is an artist to watch out for.
on the b-side label boss perc hooks up with the labels canadian connection metalogic to deliver 2 tracks that flit between broken beat and 4/4 rhythms with ease. both tracks feature an attention to detail that both perc and metalogic are known for with endless dubbed out synths and effects keeping the tracks interesting but never getting in the way of the crisp beats. these tracks have already been road tested around the world by perc in recent months and will be a key part of a launch party for this ep in toronto in october.
collaboration has become a cornerstone for motech. maintaining its diverse sound requires diverse collaborations. the sound that emerges on >midnight express< is no exception. combining the ever evolving sound of dj 3000 and the synth mastery of esteban adame (galaxy 2 galaxy, los hermanos, ican w/santiago salazar). this new 12 inch is a driving exploration of where the sound of detroit is going. joined together are the ethno-percussive elements instrumental to shaping the motech sound, as well as a dance floor driven synth pattern that beckons your inner desire to move.
described by bbc radio 1 dj and experimental music maven, mary-anne hobbs as >one of the most inspired and agile lyricists in the world today<, ben sharpa has created an epic work that takes the listener on a journey into the tortured mind of an artist who has remained fiercely dedicated to his art ... think roots manuva, dj mujava, beans ...
itÆs been a couple of years since victim last released a full 12, but just like the buses you wait that long and then two come along at once. for victim, the >off piste< 12 follows hot on the heels of their split 12 with jerome hill & dont recordings. in the case of ben pest, they are coming thick and fast at the moment, with a recent release on lukes angers bonus round label, and an upcoming 12 on the seriously deranged panic bridge label. so, all in all a busy few months. as for the tracks, they all share in common a seriously weighty bottom end, and a tendency for crunchy acidic midsàbut that is kinda where the similarities end, as ben takes the opportunity to explore various avenues off the main street of techno. from the stomping acid workout of >zeedonk< to the more electro-influenced beats of >pain n gain< this is a record that covers a fair few bases (basses?), although all with the aim of thrilling a crowd that enjoys their techno on the gnarly side.
dionisis sternaras aka dio s, is an exciting greek producer that gives us his second release here, a two tracker ep of gigantic proportions. starting in a deep chuggy prog style gives a false impression of whats to come.. the track turns a dramatic thunderous corner , after the drop!

italian-superstar-dj bendj starts off with a classic single called me & myself which already caused massive reactions in house-land! besides the incredible vocal work, its the brilliant remix by wolfgang gartner that takes the clubbers by storm: banging e
after the success of >disco trix vol. one< hardgroove continues the party vibes with trix vol. two, yet more familiar classics are wacked thru the sampler by mr ben and pumped up for peaktime useage in true hardgroove fashion. this ep features 2 different mixes of >dollar bill y all< as we couldn t decide of the definative version so lazily put both on, >reject 2< which was commissioned as a remix for spain s >dj nuke< but unused and >in the middle< which in our humble opinion is the finest slice of disco fromage sims has created so far
