great new downwards remix project from russell haswell. forerunner to a new 10 track lp ! haswells improvised modular synth recordings are given the radical remix treatment. fellow midlander, regis, delivers a beat driven techno noise mulch classic, then, the legendary whitehouse founding member, and more recently cut hands, william bennett, has spatialized the original mono source into a stereo head fucking, brain floss session. the entire b side of this ep is given over to chicagos experimental music master, kevin drumm, who expands the chosen track into a striking 8 minute noise/ambient conundrum

the pedigree of this collaboration should need little explanation. luminaries of british electronic music spanning over two decades, russell haswell (gescom, haswell & hecker) and downwards label founder karl o connor (regis, sandwell district, british murder boys) have come together to produce three tracks of inimitable experimental techno in their debut collaborative release. with each track built upon a permutating sonic foundation, these are muscular and expertly paced compositions that effortlessly transition between hypnotic rhythms and textural and timbral experimentation.

brooklyns boroughs are contaminated by creators, so the only surprise hearing alex burkats first 100% silk masters was how subtly exquisite he had nailed them down. patient, swelling loops of new age club mist give way to classic chicago figure-8 bass patterns, and dubby, sampled drum fills punctuate before billowing back out into breathy warehouse atmospherics.

nicolas cantu makes a welcome return to sequencias with the lost tribe—a brisk 808 workout with lush synthwork and psychedelic acid stylings. this is a more breezy approach compared to his work on other labels yet spares none of the imaginative or emotive qualities. on the flip side, label head jm de frias offers up the dissonant groover the light as a follow up to his debut track from levon vincents acclaimed fabric mix cd. brash percussion collides with staccato melodies awash in echo and organ, sustaining an intensity that never quite boils over. the two team up for the closer the last light, an atmospheric epic of growling strings, breathy ambience and melancholy stitched together with creaky, decrepit acid stabs and brittle percussion. this is the beginning of an on going collaboration between the two, keep your ears open in the near future.
