having established partisan with a bedrock of essential talent, anthea steps out with her debut ep. “smile” kicks off the ep with infectious techno, a healthy dose of acid, and funk induced drum programming. “everything is aok” plots a deeper, trippier course with intricate layers of synth and drum patterns to create a truly hypnotic mind and body workout. whilst “nrg for daze” presents the softer side of partisan, bringing gentle pads into the mix without losing the all-important acid undercurrent that makes for such powerful dance floor material. her “state of mind” ep is the perfect statement on where anthea is at on her artistic trajectory, as a producer, dj and label head.
after 1 year anthea returns to the label brouqade, delivering 3 cuts with experimental edge..
early support by: sonja moonear, barac, tobi neumann, tini, matthew dekay…

alex celler has made quite a splash in 2009! since his tuningspork debut ep trapped in dub, hes had a hitrecord la palma for arearemote, and consequently teamed up with fellow londoner anthea of phonica records. as anthea & celler they released a pair of 12?s forfreak n chic and cÚcille, and now their third effort as a duo appears on tuningspork. down with g.o.d. is a chunky and forceful workout, fuelled by jesus juice, with a distorted bass bounce and vaporous dubovertones that just might make the dancefloorbreak down and speak in tongues.
