grandiose doppel-a-seiten-12-inch von den beiden angesagtesten dubstep-produzenten aus san francisco - bereits jetzt auf den playlisten von mary anne hobbs & flying lotus!

brendan angelides, aka eskmo is a san francisco based music producer who records music thats influenced by both dubstep and older grime, with a strange added x factor and an instinctive pop feel.
>let them sing< mixes together stuttering, whirring half-step drums and bass with a strange whirring melody that speeds up and slows down throughout the track, backed up with warm sunbeam like chord. the intense trance-like feel of the track is relieved by the dropping in of a neat vocoder vocal for a makeshift chorus. its an unusual track that coils and uncoils the tension throughout, masterfully releasing and tightening the pressure.
track two >from the standpoint< mutates what sounds like a vocal culled from a new age meditation cd into a weird hypnagogic electronic melody, while chords spiral and drums ebb and flow underneath. like >let them sing< the listener is drawn through several stages, from an intense massaging build up, into a period of release completed with that sonic signifier of calm, birdnoise. the track then drops into an extended period of the vocal, as the chords accompany in all their strangeness. its like an extremely artful and arch take on the utilitarian grime technique of changing the track every 8 bars.

its not often that a remix can better an already popular original but then its not all the time that eskmo and his partner in crime antiserum decide to a dubstep remix. keeping the flair of the original and going downright sub low, they turn out a huge remix that is gonna props all across the board. not to be missed.

bibio follows up the acclaimed success of his warp debut lp ambivalence avenue with an album of new work and remixes entitled the apple & the tooth. as well as 4 new unheard bibio tracks, the album will feature remixes by clark, wax stag, eskmo, lone and others. with the apple and the tooth bibio once again plays to his strengths by showcasing a whole variety of songs, from lush introspective music collages to beats that could be like some long forgotten disco treasure dusted off. it would be hard to believe this was the work of one producer if it were not for the inimitable vintage imprint on his music.
