adam feingold aka ex-terrestrial, finds himself providing a hit single along with two remixes on the flip from project pablo & diji himself.

three cuts from max mcferren & project pablo as 2 responsible

jump source is a collaborative effort between two pals, francis latreille & patrick holland (project pablo). it all started on a thursday afternoon in montreals mile end at francis home studio. over an mpc 2000xl, moog source, modular kit, and some junos, the two tweaked breaks and blended pads until things sat just right. guide to action fits 4 tracks, some of which include solos, vocals, and amusing fadeouts

interior groove traveler, and recent resident of canada’s “left coast”, unknown mobile has honoured us the privilege to issue his first 12-inch record. the three cuts hike through rolling levels of melodic foley and pensive oral snippets, laid over tough low-end and resonant harmonies. percussion is sparse yet carefully woven around patterns that wash in & out. while “no motion” and “rhododendron” induce a state of calming limbo, “mantra” offers a celebration of dance.

priori ist ein pseudonym von francis latreille, der zunächst solo-veröffentlichungen auf dem griechischen label echovolt und dem kanadischen label asl singles club herausbrachte. latreille ist als begeisterter kollaborateur bekannt und ist an einer reihe von projekten beteiligt, darunter jump source, m.s.l., housemates, new world science, anf und andere. er hat auch an mixing-projekten von künstlerkollegen wie roza terenzi, ex-terrestrial, ramzi, bambii und ouri gearbeitet.

the second release in no bad days’ sister imprint no bad edits comes from montréal upstart unknown mobile, who first caught our ear with a lovely debut on asl singles club. here, he looks to the 1980s for inspiration, channeling that decade’s confidence and colour with three shimmering reworks. the a-side’s “dream state” matches its namesake, evoking a busy fourth world market scene, with pipes, bells and flutes chiming away in happy harmony.
on the flip, “programmer” is a slab of excitable and effects-slathered fusion funk, as if a computer has sprung to life and begun to dance. the 12” wraps with “valerian slip”, where unknown mobile folds the strands of silk from a free-form windham hill deep cut into a new shape, every bit as smooth as the original but with a nagging groove to underpin it.
