sea power & change is a pseudonym for seminal portuguese producer tiago, a multi-talented musician and dj with his attention split between many musical endeavors, this self-titled ep marking his departure into yet another territory. these are four melancholic songs, each independent in mood yet collectively bringing to life a beautifully vague array of contradictions. with sea power & change, tiago taps into our perverted subconscious, developing a cinematic approach by coupling tragic pianos with slow-motion basslines, slinky guitars against industrial drums and grandiose synthesizers over tropical percussion, all bathed in pornographic overtones

remixes von nicolas jaar und ed bangers boogie-revivalist breakbot! matthew dears black city is an opus of bacchanalian futurism, then second single >you put a smell on me< is its presumptive climax—an unblinking industrial march to the center of the brains most neglected corners. its drums are militant, its pace is unswerving, and the squarewave synths that start falling like mortar shells are searing and wide-eyed. then theres the marbled voice of dear himself, pent-up and sexually charged, beckoning you for a ride in his big black car. its the sound of staring down the part of yourself that you are most afraid of. if that seems too daunting, theres always the dub version. when mirrored through the eyes of others specifically wolf + lamb prodigy nicolas jaar and ed bangers resident boogie revivalist, breakbot — >you put a smell on me< starts to feel less lobotomizing. jaars version is a sullen, scratchy, headphone-ready beat trip—atmospheric vibraphone samples here, stilted kicks and snares there, all of it amorphously affecting together. and breakbot has no problem hamming it all up into the sort of blithe electro-funk every prom night deserves.

the owl, like its namesake, sits in the shadows. its deep, dubby bassline lazily rolls along, as our franco-italian alliance layer their percussive elements. string stabs usher in the smooth-keyed break, before that weighty bass drops back in. on the flip, txarco brings a sinister, somewhat industrial brand of funk, provided brilliantly by its growling, predatory bassline. as scything sounds, breathy vocals, and a variety of drums rolls lunge from the darkness, and fade just as quickly, we are constantly guarded by our bassline protector.

incl. sascha dive remix!! ray okparas ama recordings returns after the resounding success of its debut release for ama002, the surrender ep by vernon & dacosta, the belgian based house project of vernon bara and massimo dacosta. the pair have been producing music for 10 years since meeting in belgium and have released tracks on labels such as om records, robsoul, aroma, a second smell, icon, diy, amenti, ready made, klassic fiasco, off rec. and many more. they have remixed over 40 tracks for artists such as brett johnson, fred everything, johnny fiasco, swirl people, jt donaldson, bear who? and someone else to name but a few. the surrender ep is characteristic of their style with a cold, industrial groove comfortably juxtaposed with an infectious soulful spirit. the lead track, about our music, centres on a groove that just keeps on keeping on, sleazing its way through your body before the vocalsam ple with an ode to jazz punctures the track. one of the finest exponents of the groove, sascha dive, steps into the remix for about our music with a dark beat dub that corrupts the bass line and warps the vocal into a distorted, eerie sermon…

first on decks.de !!! heavy beats with an analog feel and loud drums keep spinning and building around noisy crisp techno athmospheres until furious hi hats unleash the very last drop of energy around. the titel track >12 monkeys< appears in three mixes. the rawdub is maybe the toughest emerson track for many years. he already produced a whole series of rawdub techno remixes that will be released soon and this is somehow the blueprint for his new rawdub techno project. the original track sports industrial fueled beats and soundscapes. cut b1 is a remix by the one and only argentinian stallion juan pablo pfirter. he had his latest outings on labels like figure, clr, stockholm ltd & his very own mind trip music, his latest addition to the infamous clr compilation called miestudio had him supported all across the board. here he delievers an outstanding rework playing around with the beats and parts from the original forming it up to a deeper techno anthem with huge impact on the floor. supported by: oliver ho, slam, technasia, terence fixmer, lucy, mark henning, two em, pig & dan, cio d or, danny howells, daniel sanchez, echologist, ...

finally, the live virtuoso olene kadar is back again with release #4 on his homebase mos ferry! not only the really massive kick makes the a-side >deal< a true stomper, that might put a smile on every detroit fans face also a guy called gerald would be thrilled! kadar uses common sounds and styles to stack his own unconventional sound-building - his own >house<. driving is probably the adjective that can express most accurately what constitutes the eight and a half minutes track with its funky organ chords. the b-side >sot:2< contains an equally virtuoso ass-shaker. somewhere between industrial aesthetics of the reverberated snare and the indefinable squawking sound its elements combine into a multi-dimensional piece of >club therapy< full of extremes. the unity of groovy kick and bass constitutes a high contrast to the vast extending percussion that moves at times in dramatic and absurd dimensions. approaching the drop, the almost out of control snare rolls and percussion drown any crowd in their own sweat dripping from the ceiling.

tremsch & metlzer aka martin maier & daniel fuchs have created their own style of music which is based on new school techno house.&#8232,,it is hard to find out which kind of music exactly has influenced these artists but similar to piemont they are merely occupied by their own world of music in their heads.&#8232,,,,,we are sure they have never heard of such warp legends as >sweet exorcist still their 3 tracks carry that northern industrial flavour and combine it with funk.&#8232,,>20 toes< as well as >head games< perfectly transport this spirit, whereas -development- feels housier with samples of child vocals and cut up reverse sounds that create an semi-acoustic feeling.&#8232,,support comes through a remix by mbf core member piemont who have remixed >head games< and have created through that a fabulous rough and crazy chicago track, that holds all the experience piemont have gained through playing live.

michigan central station built in 1913 for the michigan central railroad, was detroit, michigans passenger rail depot from its opening in 1913 until the discontinuance of amtrak service on january 6, 1988. at the time of its construction, it was the tallest rail station in the world. the building, located in the corktown district of detroit still stands today, though it remains unoccupied. restoration projects and plans have gone as far as the negotiation process, but none have come to fruition. spread throughout the city of detroit and its surrounding metropolitan area, the decay of once magnificent buildings during the industrial revolution and automobile era now cast a shadow of despair on a once flourishing city. these monuments of achievement now lay barren and forsaken by city government. infrastructural restoration and city development are fundamental elements in detroits recovery, and the recovery of cities worldwide. it is time for revival in our cities, but first, in our souls. the michigan central station ep is a platform for this change.
