>impolite to refuse< by claude young remade and remixed by santiago salazar and esteban adame as ican. originally released in 1996, >impolite to refuse< immediately inspired the future members of ican. it had that detroit techno soul with latinized bass and percussion, even before knights of the jaguar, claude youngs masterpiece had won us over. also included on this release are two new versions of >impolite to refuse<. esteban adame and santiago salazar did their homework to recreate the strings, bass and then added their own inspired twists for the ican remake. esteban adame slows it down to 118 bpm for a latin funk jam on his deep mix.

fresh 2010 repress !! historia y violencia is a new project exploring the hispanic roots of santiago salazar (dj s2) and j. mendez (silent servant). both producers dissect their latin upbringings as a cinematic theme to create snapshots of the day-to-day blood and sweat that has shaped them as individuals. the sound takes cue from detroit, berlin and chicago to create classic, deep dancefloor tracks. santiago salazar started djing in the early 90s inspired by mix tapes his brother was bringing back from the gay underground scene in los angeles. his style has always been a mixture of house and techno. after moving to detroit, santiago began his music training with mike banks, label founder of underground resistance. he is also half of the duo ican (ican productions / planet e) who have been responsible for some killer techno releases. the central american born j. mendez cut his teeth as jasper in the late 90s/early 2000s, running the california-based cytrax label. a veteran dj from the age of 16, he has performed worldwide in clubs from berlin to osaka. along with technical wizards kit clayton and sutekh, he helped shed light on the small but influential minimal techno scene on the west coast. a chance meeting with karl oconnor in 1999 established a friendship that would later open the door to the sandwell district label in 2006. silent servants sound is a reinterpretation of early 80s post-punk electronics, paired with the deep, metallic sounds of basic channel and downwards.

collaboration has become a cornerstone for motech. maintaining its diverse sound requires diverse collaborations. the sound that emerges on >midnight express< is no exception. combining the ever evolving sound of dj 3000 and the synth mastery of esteban adame (galaxy 2 galaxy, los hermanos, ican w/santiago salazar). this new 12 inch is a driving exploration of where the sound of detroit is going. joined together are the ethno-percussive elements instrumental to shaping the motech sound, as well as a dance floor driven synth pattern that beckons your inner desire to move.

santiago salazar aka dj s2 is better know as one half of ican. he has also been part of ur production units los hermanos and galaxy ii galaxy. he has also recorded as aztech sol. with this materia oscura he has delivered a release that >techno detroit< can be proud of. two deep, building techno tracks, in which you can easily hear his heritage. for fans of carl craig, ur etc. this is part 8 of 12 in this series.
