Yann Tiersen & Jay Haze

COMPTINE D UN AUTRE ETE I APRES MIDI

Tuning Spork

TSPORKULTRA

Info:

Once Again, Tuningspork Records Ventures Away From Its Trademark Funky House In Exchange For Something A Little More Unexpected. Last Summer, The Label Issued >free Your Mind< (tsextra), A Baleraric Groove Crafted By Jay Haze And Ricardo Villalobos. Now Comes Another Non-sequitur: >comptine D Un Autre été: L Après-midi< (tsultra), Mr. Tiersens Piano Composition Reconstructed For The Dancefloor By Jay. French Composer Yann Tiersen Has A Minimalist Approach That Many Electronic Producers Could Learn From. His Piece (the Title Of Which Roughly Means >nursery Rhyme Of Another Summer: The Afternoon<) Provides The Basis For This Melancholy Track. Djs Addicted To Hyperbolic Effects Plugins Might Hesitate To Play This - But Those Who Appreciate Subtlety Will Be Rewarded Here. Tiersens Original Composition Is Tastefully Manipulated Into A Track That Makes Sense In A Club Context, Yet Sets Itself Apart From The Usual Techno/house Fare, Providing A Rare Introspective Moment On The Dancefloor. And It Might Be Worth Mentioning: If You Play This Track And The Floor Doesnt Fill Up With Ladies, Then It Probably Means Youre Djing At A Gay Club. (not That Theres Anything Wrong With That!)
