munichs martin matiske started his recording career at fifteen with his stunning ep stars & galaxy for dj hells gigollo records back in 2002. here he dons 4 fresh tracks for the vivod label with his trademark electro sound, somewhere between dopplereffekt, classical & wave. kicking off the ep is die nibelungen, a sort of speak & spell classical piece with an electro backing track. a2 - bayerischer wald is a chord heavy majestic bomb in a 5/4 time signature, maybe a stretch too far for the linear techno dj but thats what makes this ep so interesting. b2 - virtuosic mechanic harks back to his previous work on gigollo records, a more club orientated track which should do some effective damage on the floor. rounding things off is kammermusik, a subtle electro ballad. if you like your electro with a heavy classical influence then this is your ep.

monumental house anthem alert! another classic jammer from 1992 lifted straight from the strictly vaults. this one s huge. phuture aka acid house pioneers spanky and dj pierre (with a little help from roy davis jr) turn in a driving, acidic monster in true wild pitch style. probably the only record that begins with a sinister voice saying this is cocaine speaking before diving head-long into one of the best anti-drug house records ever. absolutely brilliant. bubbling 303 basslines and cavernous handclaps combine with a funked out, dubbed out synth line that just doesn t stop. phuture will survive, and they weren t lying when they said that as this record (among too many others they had a hand in) still rock today. yep, still fresh. tried and tested, often imitated, never bettered. phuture are the originals. open up your eyes (and ears). this one s a tasty 2017 reissue and remaster, featuring all 4 mixes as per the original release way back when. essential stuff here. you simply need this one.

four years after his excellent eclipse 12-, roberto auser is back on a rotterdam staple: pinkman. color your soul has adopted some, but not all, of its older brother s attributes. lumbering with menacing intent, the title piece leaves wreckage in its bruising wake. -do you want to believe- is cut from the same deviant cloth. grunting rhythms stomp on tortured strings, industrial shrieks cry beneath the boot of a raging beat. the closer, -wake u up-, has auser toying with his victim. steam hisses, acid lines bulge, pistons pound and sirens blare in this boiled work of brooding brutality.

während das *text-album* in momenten an sonic youth, pavement, cocteau twins, stereolab, velvet underground, the national und sonny&cher erinnert, lösen sich die songstrukturen auf dem instrumental-album zart auf in zwingende soundscapes zwischen noise-miniatur und cinemascope-breitwandepos, wecken assoziationen zu neu!, goblin, feelies, young marble giants, wendy carlos oder mogwai. die vermeintlichen widersprüche ihres scheinbar unbegrenzten pop-entwurfs, die gleichzeitigkeit von unaufgeregt und völlig durchgedreht, schüchtern und radikal, krachig und hymnisch, radiotauglichen melodien und avant-experimentalität schaffen eine große, befreiende leichtigkeit. und alle konzeptualität mal beiseite: es sind einfach wahnsinnig schöne songs. ob mit worten oder ohne: locas in love sind in ihrer nüchternheit und melancholie, in ihrer unzufriedenheit und uneinverstandenheit auf ihrer neuen platte lebensbejahender und umarmender als jemals zuvor. und das macht ihre musik so hörenswert - und wertvoll.

the soul, creativity, or love put into something, the essence of yourself that is put into your work.
