diamond version craft music that is somehow simultaneously futuristic and archaic. on the surface, its static effervescence and mechanistic precision evoke the march of technology and the sinister detachment of late capitalist society. but it affects listeners on a more instinctive level, interfacing directly with the nervous system and rendering the polyphonic chatter of the bodys impulses crisp and cold. there is something oddly permanent about they rhythms they unearth, as though theyare simply tapping into a deeper pulse that has always been present within their circuitry. diamond version is a collaborative project between two of the most groundbreaking, experimental and forward thinking operators in modern music, olaf bender and carsten nicolai. as joint heads of the berlin-based label raster-noton and with solo projects alva noto (nicolai) and byetone (bender), for over a decade they have been releasing work that spectacularly blurs the lines between the visceral and the conceptual, bridging the gap between gallery and dancefloor. diamond version release the latest instalment in their series of eps leading up to an album in summer 2013.

diamond version ist eine kollaboration zweier innovatoren moderner musik, byetone und alva noto. als führende köpfe des chemnitzer labels raster-noton und mit ihren solo-projekten alva noto (carsten nicolai) und byetone (olaf bender) arbeiten die beiden seit geraumer zeit an der grenze von intuitiver und konzeptueller kunst, einer verbindung von galerie und dancefloor. der dritte teil der ep-serie mit den titeln *turn on tomorrow / turn on tomorrow (version) & sense of urgency* beinhaltet drei tracks, in denen das auditive, das visuelle und das sloganhafte unmittelbar miteinander verschränkt ist. an der crispen, synthetischen oberfläche der songs spiegelt sich die brutale realität der slogans und macht deren bedrohlichen dystopischen gehalt - und ihre absurdität - sichtbar.

sonikku comes riding back into the lobster tropical gardens with a flurry of sparkling, arpeggiator-driven ambient jams featuring three extended reworks from nts regular mobbs.
sonikku’s originals apply a drier and skit-length pop approach to synth-based home listening. building a borderline-saccharine melodic base to each track then upping the sheen and the tropical & twinkling production. shots of balearic appear in earth temple, christmas jingles echo from the depths of diamond dust, while sky garden channels a more direct emotional palette of warm synthesizer heartbreak.
mobbs’ approach is to allow each track to breathe around it’s core strengths over a longer time frame, whilst enhancing and encouraging each element to make it’s space and time to enter the track. the shifts and swaying structures turn shorter synth ideas into fully blown journeys that become almost hypnotic by the end. a soft, dream-like ride into bliss.
