it s not all minimal techno in romania, as the p-balans crew ably demonstrate on this second release from local hero the holy fix. the synths come down thick and gloopy on -the void- before -slagwise- ramps up the horror tones with a perfect distillation of what makes a soundtrack pop off. this is nightmarish disco music in the vein of maiovvi and the like, and it s delivered impeccably. there is a greater focus on club tones amongst the atmospheric fx on tracks & traps though, with -quite vicious- in particular conjuring up a thrilling, madcap romp through buffed up disco techno.

knapp zwei jahre nach der veröffentlichung des selbstbetitelten debütalbums melden sich nick millhiser und alex frankel aka holy ghost! mit neuen songs zurück. dabei zeigt *dynamics* deutlich, dass die beiden new yorker sehr an selbstbewusstsein gewonnen haben und ihre musikalische erfahrung, die sie über die jahre in form von single- oder ep-veröffentlichungen sowie zahlreichen remixes für z.b. mgmt, cut copy, moby, phoenix oder lcd soundsystem, gekonnt in die songs einfließen lassen. holy ghost! haben ihren extrem tanzbaren elektro-sound mit dem neuen album perfektioniert, sie kümmern sich nicht um etwaige trends und konzentrieren sich auf ihre stärke, einen sound zu kreieren, der sofort in mark und bein geht.
die 2x12 inch vinyl-lp kommt im klappcover, inklusive cd-version des albums.

the final single from the self-titled holy ghost! lp before alex & nick return to the studio, commencing work on lp2. the b-side features an amazingly retro extended 12 inch remix by dimitri from paris. limited to 300 stamped white label copies.
in its original form, holy ghost!s debut album cut >hold my breath< is, pure and simple, great dancefloor electronic pop, in the hands of shadowy duo tiger & woods, the song has been totally reshaped and refracted through 80s r&b radio. they have slowed the pace and inserted synth-funk hot flashes that recall prince – and, no kidding, the time, and jimmy jam & terry lewis – to create a mood that fits comfortably (and pleasurably) within their future boogie m.o. cosmic kids ron poznansky and dan terndrup have taken the track in a more tensely dramatic direction. it might be the vaguely darkened synthline upon which much of that track sits that lends itself to its more intense feel here, and gives it such a pleasant nocturnal feel. finally, theres falty dls re-envisioning, which goes down awfully smooth for a track so full of the big, thick, bumping bass beats. it’s an aural pleasure to find yourself dreamily lost in the brooklyn, new york producer/djs halls of reverberating sound.
with u is the debut release by elusive producer holy other. following on from critically acclaimed records by balam acab, ooooo and how to dress well, with u is the fourth release on tri angle records. taking the alien kinetics of uk garage, the euphoric highs of vocal house and the slow, sensuality of r&b, holy other has created a sound that s as melancholy as it is beautiful, spectral and yet slightly at unease with itself. playing these five songs feels like a slow, solitary walk into the city night, lights flashing around you, muted where once they seemed to shine more brightly. with u was recorded in berlin, gothenburg and manchester, where holy other currently resides.
there are certain songs that are so very good, the only singular word that accurately describes them is satisfying. >wait & see< is one of those: an aural pleasure that scratches an itch and hits the spot so precisely, it almost feels like self-denial not to listen on repeat. on holy ghost!s latest ep, the absurdly catchy single from their self-titled 2011 debut gets a makeover from three of dance musics titans: cfcf, kris menace and richard x. and while this batch of remixes finds the artists behind each track steering in new directions, each finds a way to capitalize on the irresistible danceability of the original.
glaswegian producer, label owner and globe trotting dj graeme clark, aka the revenge, takes on holy ghost!s >say my name< – a song from the duos ep static on the wire that, in its original incarnation, is a lovely, smooth slice of electronic pop. the revenge re-models the single three times over, into a trio of distinct remixes all bearing his unmistakable signature. first up on the vinyl 12inch is the revenge remix, which starts out like a hollowed-out, hall-of-echoes version of its predecessor and then grows – bit by bit and synth by syth – into a gorgeous swirl. on the revenge instrumental, clark ups the disco ante, removing the vocal melody and replacing it with elements equally as compelling: a classic beat, synthesized strings, double handclaps, and an essential electric bassline
holy ghost! return for a brief hello while they complete their debut album and prep a new single for dfa. kindred spirits and label mates mock & toof hold up their end of the remix trade with not one but two remixes, both quite different interpretations a playful stab at minimal techno and a psychedelic disco funk.
originally recording under the name automato for dfa & capitol records, holy ghost is the latest discoid creation for dfa. a product of their obsessions with analog synths & rare disco >hold on< is a thumping disco trotter with a spiced up house remix from french house vet blackjoy.
