Info:

Central To The Israeli Club Scene, Deepa & Biri Have Long Been Defying Expectations Even Within A Community They Helped Construct. Serving As Resident Djs, Activists And Bookers For Tel Avivs Legendary Barzilay Club, The Pair Helped Build A Transcendent Club Scene. Hugely Influential Artists Such As Robert Hood, Derrick May, Rødhad, Ben Klock And Moritz Von Oswald Passed Through The Club, Enjoying Legendary Crowds And What They Could Surely Sense Was A Genuine Air Of Anarchy, Rebellion And Unadulterated Rave Pleasure. As The Duo Held Down Dozens Of Parties With Dozens Of Djs, There Was No ‘eureka Moment For Their Emerging Sound, Just A Steady Stream Of Brilliant, Inspiring Electronic Music, Much Of Which Left An Indelible Imprint On The Pair. Now Based In Berlin, For Deepa & Biri, Things Are Much The Same, Even If The Landscape And The City Is Different. Always Rooted In The Fertile Ground Between Machines And Emotion, On Their Second Full-length Lp, ‘dominance, The Duo Demonstrate Their Unique Grasp Of The Sensitive, Unfolding Relationship Between Man And Machine. Steadfast In Their Insistence Never To Remain In One Lane In Terms Of Their Sound, ‘dominance Flawlessly Segues Between Forcefulness And Weightlessness. From Beginning To End, This Is Not A Record Afraid To Show Its Teeth With An Uncompromising, Instantly Recognisable Techno Palette That Kicks The Foundations Of Any Sound System With Menace, Anger And Determination, Particularly On Tracks Such As The Dense ‘voltage And Pulsing Throughout The More Industrial Flourishes Of ‘ecole De Nancy And ‘seeking Solace.
