PROLECANITES GURLEYI
12 Inch
27.02.15
with a firm nod to the community, revered techno aficionado, roberto reveals the launch of his new record label, fossil archive and its first release *prolecanites gurleyi*. roberto has already built quite the discography with previous releases on fachwerk, affin, artform and be as one, as well as establishing himself as a dj with gigs at the likes of fabric, berghain and tresor and recently took time out from his busy schedule to talk to marcus barnes for the independents blog.
entitled narita, the release is inspired by, and dedicated to, japan, and the tracks are a collage of all the experiences and emotions the producer has picked up there whilst on his travels. this release was also due to be the 44th on the label (which has now made it up to number 67) and so has clearly been cooking for a long time. once again it proves the man behind it to be focused on stripped back and hypnotic grooves, shadowy textures and subliminal synths that are abstract and truly heady. up first, sleepless is a spooky and hypnotic techno roller with icy pads and rubber drums that roll on like a haunted midnight train burrowning deep into your brain. ebisu is even more reserved, with just a light, skipping kick and tinkling, glassy keys suspending you in a wide open space of abstract atmospheric soun d. on th e flip side, mountain splitter is more urgent and immediate, with nervy pads this time racing alongside woodpecker precision and supple drums. it s heady stuff that really distracts you from the world before finally trance is a wash of grainy white noise and groaning synths that soundtrack a word deep down in the depths of the ocean. svreca is a master of getting deep inside both body and brain and does so in different but captivating ways with all four of these cuts.
