ibadan records launches itself into the new year with finesse. four tracks produced by jerome sydenham together with sylivie foret & aschka

after the critical success of 2008s >rain< (dcp008), berlins aschka is back with a new ep entitled >cinnabar<, featuring 2 ethereal instrumental deephouse cuts. this time aschka enlisted friend & fellow berliner dirk leyers (closer musik, kompakt), who delivers a mesmerizing, broodingly infectious techno remix. on the bside, ruoho ruotsi serves up a deep melodic yet wistful take on >cinnabar<.

hailing from toronto and now residing in berlin by way of brussels. aschka is a rising star on the european music circuit. she makes her us premiere on defchild with two deep and melodic excursions. on remix detail, chicagos kate simko (kupei musika, spectral, peacefrog) delivers an exquisitely evocative downtempo remix of rain, while new yorks stefny (addon, hector works) serves up a mammoth mix thats a playful and jacking reinterpretation of sensoreality.

incl ricardo villalobos remix

this is the second vinyl in jerome sydenhams 3 part animal social club vinyl series. what you hear is not really the rainforest, or the wilderness. dont let yourears and eyes fool you. the primal edge, that instinctdriven music, raw and inviting, signals another meeting of the pack. and every time the wild ones get together, the quality of the sound is unmistakable. breathe, dance, listen, drink your fill, take it all in: this is an environment where there are no inhibitions and spontaneity is everywhere, in everything. a place where house and techno are the heartbeat. this is the primal universe of the animal social club.
