classic electro album, großes tennis

** released on vinyl only **!!
in the space of two short years shlømo has quickly established himself alongside the likes of marcelus, bambounou, francois x and the antinote records crew as a key figure in paris’ current techno generation. having established his own taapion records label in 2013 and built a roster around a core of local producers including roman poncet, pvnv and antigone, in addition to enlisting stephen brown, conforce and sterac as remixers for the label’s releases so far. for its fifth release, bright sounds - run by fellow parisian kennedy smith - revisits last year’s rechaïm ep (bsrx003), with a trio of remixers offering their own takes on shlømo’s established deep and expansive sound. first up is the aforementioned 50 weapons artist bambounou, who offers a dynamic groove-based version of the title track that bounces along an elastic kick drum with cut-up fragments of the original’s atmospheric pads providing further impetus. label owner kennedy smith takes on theory is the worst by bringing its dub textures to the for while filling the track’s empty spaces with intricate drum patterns. finally, italian techno pioneer donato dozzy turns grounded queen into a classic dozzy slow-burning techno trip, with his trademark layered sound complimenting the track’s subtle rhythmic backbone.

ganze vier jahre nach *gemini* meldet sich jack tatum, der in brooklyn lebende kopf hinter wild nothing, mit einem neuen studioalbum zurück. für *life of pause* hatte tatum das große bedürfnis die genre-grenzen zu sprengen und sich klangtechnisch neu zu definieren. nach einer langen phase des schreibens und experimentierens nahm tatum das neue material schließlich in los angeles und stockholm auf - zusammen mit produzent thom monahan (devendra banhart, beachwood sparks). die neuen stücke platzieren wild nothing inmitten des popzirkus: euphorisch-mitreißende popmelodien treffen auf epische arrangements, und es ist mitunter unmöglich, sich für einen lieblingssong zu entscheiden, wenn diese platte so viele davon bietet.
die limitierte lp erscheint auf siberfarbenem vinyl im gatefold cover mitsamt download-karte.

new beginning is aptly titled because its the first time for wordsworth and donel smokes to collaborate on an entire project. the outcome is bliss, from wordsworth’s graphic, storytelling style, accompanied by the scenic sounds of donel smokes, you get pure, no filter hip-hop music. with songs like f.u.(fingers up) featuring blu, or another day featuring masta ace, or do good featuring chali 2na, you get perspective of life, social issues, and ways to rejoice through it all. songs like hate and test of test will definitely spark discussion of reflection, while believe will give you a sense of optimism. this album is a great listen from new beginning to end.
