4 melodic techno tracks from redshape!

4 melodic techno tracks from redshape on limited blue vinyl.

ltd edition color vinyl, auch auf seinem dritten album nutzt sebastian kramer aka redshape den für ihn prägenden sound von 90er-jahre-techno allgemein und speziell aus detroit nicht als zitat, sondern erzeugt mit seinen neuen tracks ein sehr spezielles, eigenes narrativ: düster, gespenstisch, und doch entschieden romantisch. in gewisser hinsicht ist -a sole game- sogar die erste echte redshape-lp überhaupt, die nun nichts mehr imitieren will, sondern sich durch selbstbewusstsein, selbstreflexion und souveränität ausweist. im klassischer redshape-manier begeben sich die acht tracks von -a sole game- auf eine reise durch nächtliche welten und düstere industrielandschaften, durchzogen von seltsamen stimmen und geräuschen. eines der wichtigsten ziele lag unüberhörbar darin, ein nahtlos perfektes, ganzheitliches elektronisches album zu produzieren, das ohne interludes oder typisches füllmaterial funktioniert. entsprechend warm und analog klingt die platte. letztendlich setzt redshape damit klassisches songwriting mit den codes von techno um und macht in seiner musikalischen entwicklung einen großen schritt nach vorne.

redshape stars in another deep tripping, sci-fi odyssey on his imprint for present 16. opening the gate reveals a slow but surely building burner that is classic redshape, ripping the space-time continuum fabric apart at it s spoken word climax narrating of solar winds, cosmic ray particles and the speed of light. heed the track s unmistakable call and take flight on an interplanetary elevator with parched, bone-dry percussion, twisting lines with propulsive bass and growls that rumble underneath, enveloping you in an air cabin of jedi-level sound design prowess. the ride truly begins next with voyager. it s all aboard a throbbing deep low end countered by floating, melancholic sustained chords with twinkling bleeps and fading bloops that light up like the star-studded milky way. frantic hi hats and modulated percussion work keep riders on the edge of their seat through this fantasy space-age joyride at warp speed.

the blink single is a labour of love spanning over 2 years evolving from reshapes live series. the ‘tunnel mix takes its title from being road tested at the now closed tunnel club in paris and both tracks are a homage to early uk and detroit techno which redshape holds fond memories of from his youth.

turbo recordings is proud to present the kind of remix pack we’ve heard you talk about in your sleep, featuring a banging techno remix from masked man/presumed german redshape, an electro-funk jam from veteran clone machinist dexter, and two mixes (one vinyl, one digital) from rising turbo star anna that will enrich the lives of completists everywhere. label boss tiga has declared this to be his favourite release of recent times, with each track instantly plunging him deep into a persona he calls mr. goin crazy, which he describes thusly: your best friend if youre feeling the highs and your worst nightmare if you aint deep in the groove can rap his way out of any cypher naturally good at math makes his own ceramic dinnerware with insane designs and patterns

redshape returns to his own label with a retrovisionist release that looks back in time as much as it looks forward to the future. revving up on the a side is shift, a propulsive hurtle to the final frontiers. starting off ominously with just drums, bass and a pollock splatter of toms, the track is soon overrun by an army of relentlessly running basslines, let loose to steer in and out like searching headlights on a dark and endless highway. with a heavier kick, the track shifts into top gear with pensive pads soaring overhead, mesmerising squeaks and his signature attention to percussive detail. on the flip is drive, which switches gears down a notch as an astrospace cruise along intergalactic coastlines - from summery california to shiny coruscant. a rounded pounding beat with heavy sub bass bounces along to a breezy tropical melody and spacious percussive work, before riding off into a cinematic sunset that is as nostalgic as it is hopeful of the c oming dawn. once again on the edge of spatial sound but grounded in analog warmth, redshape has presented a revision of classic record productions that truly punches as it is meant to be felt and heard - on wax. recommended!

august 2016 saw running back release a first volume of live tracks from redshape, but january 2017 sees the much loved artist return to delsin, his most regard label, for a second offering of the same. this time the ep has one track made in paris, and one in london, and both are filled with the sort of beautifully bleak and lo-fi sounds that have made this man such a standout artist over the years. up first is london, a chugging track that builds in pressurised layers of coarse hi hats, gurgling bass and pinging kick drums. it is a hypnotic groove that teases you as elements drop in and out and hisses of static and broken little guitar riffs add some cheeky funk. on the flip-side, paris is much more playful, with colourful pixelated melodies dancing about the mix, industrial drums working down low and steppy synths fleshing things out. overall it sounds like a future disco for inebriated robots and is one of redshape s more party starting tracks.

10 years redshape live is a special thank you to the labels i mainly worked with in the past ten years and also to all the people on worlds dance floors, which gave me so many stellar moments. starting on running back, the best of live series will contain tracks which were only part of my live set: previously unavailable and not even arranged as full tracks. as i always record my shows, i searched for the moment, in which each of those tracks had their biggest and also earliest impact. i took that recording and rebuild them part by part to make them proper dj versions without loosing their live roots. named after the cities where they were performed. av aviv and rome.

bleep repeat makes for a potent first track. here, a thumping step gives way to synth lines that sting and swell across solar systems. things get headier, grittier, reaching a furious and frightening rush with spectral soundbites to match. a homage to uk rave sounds, this track perfectly captures the uncanny pairing of aggression and rapture at the heart of 90s bleep. paper blades follows, a celestial soundscape punctuated with hissing breakbeats and a sinewy bassline. rippling acid lines beam along the astral plane, and a hallucinatory, near-liturgical melody meanders all the while. spaced-out yet inexplicably driving, this track is elevating, enveloping

here comes the heavy remix package to lake peoples much praised debut album purposely uncertain field. with redshape, lawrence and map.ache three remixes were carefully chosen who would be able to bring their own distinctive sound to the table, but also treat the original tracks respectfully. redshape catapults -illuminated- into the orbit of the red planet, where it rotates in a trippy and hypnotic way. lawrence is drifting red but stays closer to the sun. the dial boss keeps things lighter and brings some bells and a steady bass drum to dinner and knows how to mesmerise. leipzig buddy and kann records co-founder map.ache shifts up a gear with his remix for cooping. twisted vocals and a bouncy bassline make his remix a darling on the club floor and rounds things consistently up.

die cut sleeve, shrink wrapped, stickered. berlins redshape has been releasing records for nearly a decade and in that time has amassed an accomplished discography on labels such as styrax, delsin, leaves, r&s, running back and his own imprint present which have cemented his name the amongst the greats of underground techno. nonplus are proud to release feel like riot and the rift, staying in the vein of his sci fi laden detroit techno style that continues to evolve but stay true to his unmistakable redshape sound.

running backs 50th anniversary comes courtesy of redshape. after his utilitarian bonuz beatz effort earlier this year, the masked man is back on the monolithic techno tip. graced with a sense of tradition and a modern stlye of execution, leaves is the sort of warehouse rave signal that exceeds the sole purpose of a tool. speaking of which, it comes in two different mixes to choose from accompanied by two unclothed versions for the creative dj mind.

running back proudly presents: redshape’s bonuz beatz vol. 1. revisited, reduced and refined beat down versions of some of the masked mans greatest hitz. breakbeats, toms and open hi hats a plenty with more bounce to the ounce. not only for dj use

dont let these carefree techniques fool you, as big on the dancefloor as your headphones everyone from ben sims to deetron to ben pearce has championed his introverted 12inches. providing the sauce on top, redshape remixes the original twice over, with his disco scope and not so serious mix. with a similar attention to drums and raw sounds, the two remixes arm up what is an already strong release.

cool split ep with redshape & fudge fingers

as obvious as techno and houses heavy influence is on 3024, one of the most consistent reference points has been the machine soul emanating from the city of detroit for the last 30 odd years. we will spare you yet another euro-centric pseudo-sociology lecture but the combination of geography, economics and community has produced music with an influence has consistently reached far beyond michigan state. for our 17th release 3024 is honoured to continue our trek into the analogue wilderness with another artist heavily inspired by the city, berlins near legendary redshape.

the man with the mask shouldnt need an introduction: delsin, styrax leaves and his own present outfit have shown the mans ability to maneuver between true school techno, malicious house, break beat bombs and motor city romanticism - all ornamented with redshapes very own mark. for running back, he delivers something like a cross sum of his work. >on da floor< (>da< reads >the<) is subterranean haunted house with a broken heart, while >goom< features a take-your-shirt-off reese-bass-line. if you like it dry, the >bonus beatz< >z< reads >s<) of >goom< will satisfy your needs. bass drum jungle music

part iii ? manipulation musik. manipulation musik is the darkest and most cinematic piece on this collection of eps. delicate manipulated melodies and melancholic strings moves in and out of a crackling and distorted soundscape, telling an experimental sound tale with a sad ending. on b-side redshape (present, delsin) makes a remix solely using sounds from the original. redshape described his tape dub version like this: ?think disco dub, plonk & pain?. not much to add to that ? it kind of says it all. enjoy!

out of the blue we have a new redshape! after a year of silence he is back and delivering one of his best works so far. cutting edge dancefloor material that will keep them moving like theres no tomorrow... limited as always, so dont sleep on this one...
