>sooner or later< by tom clark and martin eyerer is a classy and solid club tune. both masterminds are offering their own >sooner or later< interpretation on this release. tom clarks mix shows a rough and full body, clear structures and is highly seductive. martin eyerers mix is softer with a touch of minimalistic retro-chic. as both interpretations enjoy the same musical introduction the personality of each stands out even stronger making it a treat to the listeners ears. the daniel dreier & dale remix is an intense opposite to the original versions a techno-esque and sparkly ear feast, while the adrian martin & klangwerk remix has a softer approach pairing addictive beats to an ecstasized bass line. all in all >sooner or later< is a 4 track release featuring 4 outstanding visions of the moment in-between sooner or later, a vision for each and every one of us.

in den vergangenen jahren ist die elektroszene berlins zu einem undurch- sichtigen mix verschiedener artists und stile geworden. die stadt macht ihrem ruf als techno-mekka alle ehre, ein elektronischer klangteppich scheint sie zu u&#776,,,berziehen. in dem meer der zahlreichen beats und rhyth- men wirken namen wie tom clark und benno blome wie leuchttu&#776,,,rme: zwei urgesteine der elektronischen kla&#776,,,nge, die sich sowohl durch ihre labelgru&#776,,,ndungen als auch durch ihre sets und releases als musikalische impulsgeber bewiesen haben und von anfang an dabei waren.

when listening to scsi-9 its quite unavoidable the mind turning apart from the body and flying, fantasizing about unexplored roads and boundaries. once again, anton and maxim are providing a trip within their personal globe, travelling in the terra del fuoco (tierra del fuego), in the southest city of te world, ushuaia. tom turns the wave in an heavy deep stone, surely to become a classic to be hold in the most fond of the genre library. the voice is shaped in the loop and becomes like paraffin, the chords completing the whole, transforming an electronic piece into a classic dance floor track. the second track, chasing shadows, following the first one basic line, fill up the b side with the yapacc remix, not disappointing the expectations and concluding the ep in a classy way, giving voice to monsters and fairies, flowing into or days groove.

constant development in stagnating musical landscapes is the key to remain catchy as an artist these days. adrian martin & eleminal are always yearning for progress. >la calma<, their new release on miniload gives you a listen on their growing sophistication. an adroit beat conduction married to a sneaky bass giving birth to a tremendous and powerful musical moment, peppered with hidden hooks and a savory break. >la calma< is smoother than previous releases by adrian & eleminal without condemning a certain roughness of preceding collaborations. tom clark (highgrade records) follows that footprint, though adding a more frontal bass paired with a dreamy almost breathed on jazzy feel melody construction. miniload artists doppelt gemoppelt are redefining >la calma< in a straighter harmonization. no vanilla - just a clear and well structured body, adding cushy noises and warm imbedded waves.

with this new ep tom clark makes an impressive return to the highgrade release program. following a collaboration with marcus schatz and most recently with benno blome, he now comes back as a solo artist. after only a few beats, you’ll be sure to recognise his signature sound. tom needs surprisingly few elements to build a unique atmosphere and his matchless grooves. on the title track “scorpio“ we find a deep, rolling bassline and a slightly orientally influenced vocal, combined with the typically unique clarkish synth leads, and we’re ready to go. it’s a track that continually keeps the excitement moving while never letting the cat out of the bag, and more than deserves the a-side. then we come to “albino“, also featuring sparkling synths and rolling drums that create an impression of fluidity and an unhurried beginnings, but we also end up in a waterfall… who would have known!? in conclusion comes “sand flea“, as lively as a box of fleas, but not nearly as aggrivating! mister clark is again at his best, with a love for detail, an innate sence for strange sounds and an a significant quantity of leisurely energy, this tune also really hits the mark. this is not the work of a newbie who produces an aggressive sound to prove his talents. the result is the feature of this ep: seldom has an understatement sounded so fresh. + digital-only bonus track “12 notes“!

adf, aka adriano filippucci which manages to achieve a homogeneous fusion combining the euphoric feeling of techno and the vibrant soul of house. the title track, >perugia< is named after adrianos hometown in the heart of italy. whether it is the warmth of the sun or the mediterranean lust for life, perugia turns out to be a massive track, with its sparking melodies and a real sense of atmosphere and dynamic mischief. perugia gets the remix treatment from two of the directors at the highgrade headquarters. todd bodine sends the track firmly in the direction of detroit and into some new sonic territory. label boss tom clark sets the focus on the tracks technoid energy and simply lets the groove run away on route to its own destination. avanti avanti, amici!!
