a diverse and damaging three track ep from bone, exploring and exhibiting detroit techno musically, figuratively and spiritually. a1. here to stay (won t fade away) a nod to detroit as an ever-present - a marker by which others are measured, bone s first track on the detroit ep, here to stay (won t fade away) makes a statement above and beyond just being a fine example the music it refers to. the sumptuous melody that opens the track is accompanied by a substantial yet soft, almost warm, kick, a combination that somehow provides an atmosphere and depth way beyond merely the of the sum of its parts. more rolling percussion and drums are crisply ushered in before the here to stay (won t fade away) vocal begins looping over the composition. linear, straight up loops, grooves and rhythm give a consistent sense of railroad-esque motion atop of an ever-present vein of lush synth and melody. a track that is certainly here to stay. a2. detroit is ... soul with more of an emotional focus than symbolic this time, it s clear this one is from bone s heart. detroit is ... soul, ducks and weaves in the grey area between house and techno, the initial percussion that is brushed over the kick giving more of a house swing than a techno groove. the on/off, cut-and-dry synth chords contrast with the looser fluidity in here to stay (won t fade away), and gives a real sense of intent and desire. the real focal point however is the profound vocal that comes swirling over the top, -detroit is what i love, detroit is what i need, detroit is where i m from, detroit s the air i breathe?- no explanation necessary. b. detroit is ... hard bone rounds off part 1 of his detroit ep with aplomb. where the previous two tracks have drawn on the emotional and symbolic significance of detroit as a place and as an ideal, detroit is ... hard, cuts straight to the chase. utilizing the same vocal sample as detroit is ... soul, bone feeds things through the grinder and comes out with a late night dancefloor destroyer that blends millsian fury and red planet mystique with the archetypal subject detroit aesthetic. chaotic arpeggiated melody, indignant claps and breakneck drums and percussion are the chosen company for bone s words on this flipside to detroit is ... soul. detroit is ... hard, undoubtedly to become a mainstay for sweaty after-hours affairs the world over

die -freak ep- ist nicht nur das ergebnis der letzten monate in berlin, es markiert auch den wechsel nach ibiza, wo ellen die warme jahreszeit nutzt, um unter anderem im dc 10 ihren positiven vibe zu versprühen. -butterfly- macht den anfang und setzt nicht nur anmutige 808-nadelstiche, mit der verträumten melodie im hintergrund entsteht eine sehnsüchtige aura, die ellens warme seite offenbart. gerade das bass-grollen betont auf imposante weise die physische verve ihrer musik – kurz: pure liebe. -come to me- ist begierde und leidenschaft in siebeneinhalb minuten. zusätzlich zum deepen grundgerüst drängen sich groovy beats, die eine hypnotische beschwörungsformel freisetzen. willenlose dancefloor-magie, die mit dem eindringlichen rave-signal, schwebenden roland-synths und sh101-raveline die zeit zurückspult. mit dem titeltrack -freak the night away- ist ellen einmal mehr eine hymne gelungen, die sowohl die devise jeder großartigen nacht als auch die atmosphäre ihrer energetischen dj-sets verkörpert. auch hier hören wir erneut ellens stimme – verrückt, verspielt, kreativ. immer nach dem motto: einfach go! mit scheppernden claps und einem warmen bass wird das tanzen nicht nur zum zwang, der track geht mit seinen 303-acid-andeutungen sowie roland piano-sounds eindeutig unter die haut und öffnet die pforten in eine andere dimension.
