was für ein zirkus: be svendsen hat sich 4 titel von 4 virtuosen klangakrobaten geschnappt und jongliert sie im freien raum zwischen schnittigem house, klassischer rummelplatz-atmosphäre und stummfilmmusik der goldenen 20er. so beschwippst und überschwänglich dieses manöver klingen mag – wer sich rhythmisch dazu bewegt wird schnell merken, dass hier nach dem muster routinierter dancefloor-präzision gestrickt wurde. dafür bietet acid pauli natürlich eine echte steilvorlage: be svendsen schnallt die schunkelnden klavierakkorde von requiem for a loop auf eine swingende bassline, schlägt verwegene kapriolen und landet mit jazziger lässigkeit doch immer wieder auf der eins. die vielschichtige komposition, aus der sich der zauber des schlaraffenland vom electronic swing orchestra ergibt, untermalt er mit schlichten aber effizienten beat-texturen. zusammen mit monolink und inspiriert vom detailverliebten tiefgang des micronauten entsteht der wohl hypnotischste titel auf dieser ep, nämlich ein wunderbar verträumter remix zu modulation transfer function. und dann wäre da noch die zackige vertracktheit von the one, welche die hörerschaft wohl unwillkürlich in menschliche kanonenkugeln verwandeln dürfte.

merck 274350 with its propulsive mechanical basslines, industrial-strength percussion, and a germanic vocodered mantra, this teutonic panzer tank of a track takes absolutely no prisoners - an electronic matter of fact statement inspired by the passing of time, fate, circumstance, and synchronicity. holland s misanthropic high priest of psychedelic, doomy, dark house & techno, drvg cvltvre, delivers a trippy interpretation, turning the track into a lysergic love letter to this iconic chemical catalyst, maintaining the dynamic bassline of the original but adding a nagging 303 line to deliver an explosive 3am dancefloor device. one step closer to heaven begins with a metronomic, rhythmic new beat stomp and a nagging insidious synth refrain that recalls the more electronic side of new order. muscular synth riffs then drop in and out of the mix, taking the track into dark ebm territory and ramping up the pressure before the influences of giorgio moroder and cerrone come to the fore, propelling the track into a rapture of hypnotic celestial electronic disco.
