yeelen is a brand new project forged in the heart of a forgotten past. joe drive, of lux rec fame, and maurizio martinucci aka tez aka pragma have joined forces to sculpt, in their own words, -sonic constructions that transcend the canons of electronic music.- a bold statement, but then again this is a pretty bold ep. -techno tribalism and ritualistic soundscapes- are the bedrock from which this partnership cultivate their sound. figures and forms of a bygone time are conjured through intoxicating drum patterns, lost lands of dense jungle and windswept hills summoned through loops and samples to ensnare and entrance. polytheism explored through the prism of a polyphonic synth, mysticism born from machine drums, -ethnosonology of the future.-

the nose of clarity (one + two) is obscure and mystical techno with a hypnotism rhythm construct. part one is coming for the long nights in the clubs and bringing darkness dance moves. part two is more deeper and darker with a slowly trippy and layered loop sound. on the flip side the obsession (from don«t«be on acid ) dwntmpos rework is downtempo sound in perfection. the rhythm is going straight in the head and bring the deepness with a slowly pitched vocal in front of all understanding. the second rework is more dub influenced with warm chords, delays and echos from a other galaxy. the vinyl is hand stamped and numbered and comes with a a4 graphic art print. mastering by xergio c—rdoba at eternal midnight mastering studio madrid, spain

throwing snow declares the death of pragmatism on his new ep for houndstooth.

phi002 returns to your favourite record store with a vengance. the pragmatism ep opens with a subtle yet catchy electro rattle crawling from a wet basement, soon opening rusty iron doors with an -early 90s electronica- sign with the help of a massive atmoshperic push. dial-up terror manages to recall the boundless sounds of pioneering techno days only to give hand to the playful and jacking afterhours stomper that is no - fun + compute. crossroads between ambient and electro rarely sounded as dreamy as with timeless ultrasonic sensei particle and its kaleidoscopic arrangements, that might have landed on of your favourite early warp releases. phi002 saves best for last with cinematic hypnotism called memento mori, a perfect closure for a colourful release that carves a soundscape deeper than trendy genre names.

pure techno bomb! dark, excessive and apocalyptical sounds such as the spheres of mescaline. including a fat, delusional remix by drumloch, label owner of pragmatik recordings.

straight from buenos aires, brimful of sun, comes brouqades latest release. nina soul convinces with his intense, pulse-pumping house productions. pushed by an extremely funky vocal, >feel you< rolls in on a wave of gentle piano chords just to capture you entirely by concentrating on its crystal clear, cracking beat. >to me< interweaves smooth groove with finest old school elements, discretely tightening the track with acid vocals in the fill, to end up cool and relaxed, pouring out into balmy summerparty nights. in >try to pretend<, the dark, metallic sound encounters melancholy female memory on a sigh (well...). faster looks at the matter more pragmatically. in his remix, his focus on sound and mood creates a hypnotic track - entirely devoted to the dance floor and to the children of the night.

step forward dubfire (aka ali shirazinia from grammy winning dj and production duo deep dish) whos already hit top form this summer with some tasty releases on desolat, funkwelle.net and whose thumping >emissions< features on the minus compilation >expansion contraction<. the beauty of this rework is that it doesnt stray far from the original vibe. dubfire pays the track the full respect it deserves, adding contemporary beats, bass and hat patterns, subliminal efx and tweaks that perfectly compliment the eq sweeps and machine gun snare rolls of the original. panikattack (originally released on plus 8 in 1996 as the b side to sickness) gets a more radical overhaul with guido schneider turning in a typically pragmatic version. by excavating and enhancing the gritty funk that lies buried under the feverish textures of the original, he discovers a totally new dimension. combining the plastik elements with his own trademark swing and razor sharp percussion programming, schneider coaxes the track out of the shadows for some serious peak time action as the bassline bounds forward relentlessly occasionally enveloped by stuttering delays, to negotiate its way through the dubbed out breakdown and on to the end

tangible assets returns with its fourth release in the series by label owner stojche. an outlet that’s given the berlin based producer the freedom to explore and distill his trademark dubbed out detroit fueled productions. asset 04 follows on from three previous releases and opens its account with ‘payback’. a dubbed out affair that’s firmly grounded in a powerful groove. stojche sets about reinforcing his strengths in composing a surgically laden foundation with precision placement of 909 toms, panned snares and staggered kick drums that proceed into razor sharp hats, blooming into subtle delayed pads which are further lifted by emotive and colourful chords. payback’s true charm lies in its ability to capture an honesty and sincerity that’s as captivating as it is transcendent.“tunnel’ continues where ‘payback’ left off and leads in with a booming cavernous kick drum, diving directly deep into a wonderland of mysticism, an effortless trademark that’s clearly evident within all of stojche’s productions. rich swirling pads rise and sit happily beside cleverly programmed melodic keys that tease in out of the mix, directly complementing the main elements of its structure. if anything, ‘sinister alley’ should be further proof of the macedonian born producer’s maturity in exploring the outer worldly and broken beat time signatures. his approach in creating both depth and enchantment is both pragmatic and effective. beautifully deep, undulating and atmospheric. ‘sinister alley’ opens with an airy signal that captivates upon overture. combining quintessential snares, a series of rapid fire hats that are anchored by an analog baseline, he sets about creating hypnotism with layers of atmospheric suspense, while fluttering waves of electronic circuitry waver in the distance. a multitude of pads and textures combine to create an ethereal feel and harmonic cloud to float within. tangible assets 004 is far more than just another chapter in stojche’s musical journey and much more than just another release on his label. it’s further evidence and development in a sound that truly captures the essence of the man behind these tracks. an ethos he’s been exploring for quite some time, catalyzing imagination and furtherance that’s beyond tangible.
