state is the debut from ore, this is techno deftly delivered. four original tracks showcasing an artist ready to make their mark plus remixes from darling farah and jon convex. a debut that stands out - state showcases an artist ready to make their mark. prime-time berghain techno functions are triangulated with detroit in 1987, birmingham in 1997 and london right now. the result is sumptuously textured asymmetric dance music. richly harmonic, expressionist techno that takes in pneumatic hi-tech funk, warehouse-maddening propulsive hydraulic and rarefied low frequency dub chords. complete with laboratory-precise edits, cold, crystalline sampling and skeletal machine effects ore recalls richie hawtins plastikman all the while keeping a rooted afro-rhythmic swing reminiscent of theo parrish with shuffling hi-hats, deep bass and strokes of barely-tamed percussion.

tropisch, festlich und lebendig, dylan starks heartland klingt wie eine parade und der dschungel zugleich. heartland ist ein album źber die eindrucksvolle kraft der musik, źber vier jahre aus tausenden von samples am pc kreiert, die der 24-jŠhrige in portland, oregon ansŠssige dylan stark zum leben erweckt, als ob er ein orchester leitet. es ist ein emotionales erwachen, das dem album eine freudigen €sthetik, die weder zwangs- noch selbstbewusst aber schšn naiv scheint, verleiht. schamlos amerikanisch, ist heartland voller gefźhl, emotion und spontaneitŠt. dies ist freigeist musik.
