two new suprawax releases by eduardo de la calle. the four tracks on offer here bear testimony to de la calles search for the perfect loop. they are hypnotic grooves, almost entirely devoid of arrangement in a classical sense. but the tracks are not static. they suck you in by means of constant modulations, build free flowing structures of their own, hints of peaks emerging at the mercy of the low frequency oscillators cleverly set phase relationships. these tracks do not need the in-your-face kick drums and squashed dynamics of the brickwall generation. by leaving space, they work on a different level than solely sound pressure emanated. the simple, repetitive structure coupled with the unhasty development find their way into the dancer’s brain. moving your mind—your ass to follow suit. all records have been pressed in a run of 400 copies and come in inside-out natural cardboard sleeves. no represses are planned at present.
