(PLUS FREE MP3 DOWNLOAD CODE, INCL. BONUS "OM UNIT & CAPRACARA" REMIXES). / Brassica presents Temple Fortune; a beautiful, bittersweet EP of synth-steeped electronic music and the producer’s debut for Civil Music. The record was created during a year of musical experimentation and inspired by club experiences, both good and bad, childhood memories and existential anxiety. Incorporating analog synths, vintage drum machines, rave nostalgia, 80′s electronic pop, cosmic slow jams, avant-garde electronics and a melancholic crush of Italo, Electro and disco bearing vocals, Brassica’s music remembers much – memories that are worth the price of admission alone – but drawing in part on the urban solitude each evokes and coupling with feelings humid and raw, the music of Michael Anthony Wright is able to express so much more, a quiet storm of musical restraint and emotive power. Aligning music with that of greats such as Throbbing Gristle, New Order, Joy Division, Cabaret Voltaire is a daunting prospect; but gazing out of the sensual and emotional ‘Temple Fortune’ is an artist showing the vision and individuality to place himself among such exquisite talent. Resonating with ghostly funk, intimate and sagely Temple Fortune is intelligent and immersive. Haunting lead track Modern Magic is equal parts theatrical, romantic and wrenching. Led by a bass line (from a fretless bass guitar) which sees the spectral image of Joy Division’s Peter Hook alive and well, it features live drums, restless vocals and long, slow, constellation mapping synth lines. The playful/woeful space jam of Lose Him follows, and includes the vocal of long time friend ‘Stuart Warwick’. A nervous death dance interspersed with (ware)house bass lines and sinister synths intensify over a furtive playground chant. Milieux Metrix includes the hushed voice of Ghostape. Bass heavy disco stomps and key lead synths swirl alongside strange sounds while low vibrato cello calls give tension/release to the disorientating ancient meets the modern age theme. The EP closes with the soulful, ghostly rave of Lydden Circuit. The rushing anxeity and dancefloor disquiet have somewhat made an underground hero of Brassica for a quiet generation of lost ravers. (To which the comments on the self made & mesmerizing video appearing almost a year ago on youtube attest.) Add a floor ready acid disco remix from Capracara, & Om Unit’s consistently unique take on the footwork sound adding a new dimension to his rework, this is quite a package. Brassica views his music as a highly personal, pure distillation of his own experiences. As a child his desire to “go beyond listening” and “somehow get around the back” initially manifested itself at a very early age – modifying the family tape deck, removing the erase function to endlessly overdub and create cassette tape collages. Entering his teens rave happened. religiously attending local under-18’s raves he indulged in Ratpack, Slipmatt, DJ Hype & more. Subsequent spells in various prog, hardcore and metal bands developed into adventures in experimental music and performances with the London Sinfonietta + airings of his compositions on BBC Radio 3. However a realisation that “chin-stroking, experimental music buffs actually cared less about the music than the¬ party people, who were physically showing their appreciation for the sounds they heard” lead him to his ongoing love affair with italo, nu-disco, house and synth-based sounds. His first output was immediately snapped up by innovative underground labels, including Andy Blake’s Dissident, Tartaruga and Cyber Dance, simultaneously inducing feverish excitement from tastemakers 20 Jazz Funk Greats, Vice, BICEP and more, and paving the way for the Temple Fortune EP, his most accomplished offering yet. The Temple Fortune EP will be available from 19th November on 12″ & Download from Civil Music. A nostalgic trip through the past of synth-led music this is not. Cerebral and pioneering it exhibits an ahead-of-his-time mind in full flow, it is a monument to passion, energy, and cathartic despair.

"Check 1,2" (Emperor Remix), "Check 1,2" (Starkey Remix), "Check 1,2" (Danny Scrilla Remix), "Check 1,2" (DJ Kentaro Remix), "Check 1,2" (Original Mix). / Since the latter half of the last decade, Alex Melia aka Reso has been blending heightened technological futurism with dancefloor prowess to create a densely cinematic musical universe. Following last years ‘Ishimura’ EP, ‘Check 1,2’ is the next single to be introduced from forthcoming debut album ‘Tangram’ on Civil Music. An unflinching vision of the future and complete competency in his craft sees Reso construct a brave new narrative in the way that timeless artists like Richard D James, Photek, DJ Shadow and A Guy Called Gerald have done for earlier generations. ‘Check 1,2’ is a curveball that reveals Reso’s love of dark hip-hop, melding sounds and influences from MoWax, Ninja tune, sci-fi and dubstep. Whereas the album ‘Tangram’ succeeds in weaving a multitude of electronic genres together, the guest remixers on ‘Check 1,2’ break things down into their own dark corners of expertise. 18-Year-old ‘Emperor’ (Critical/Caliber/Modulations) is one of the new breed of uber-talented producers currently making waves within the drum & bass community. His heavyweight remix confirms this and shows just why Reso chose him to be part of the package. Philadelphia’s Starkey (Planet Mu/Ninja Tune/Civil Music), delivers a frenzied revision. Ahead of this forthcoming album ‘Orbits’ due late Nov on Civil Music, Starkey combines his Street Bass sounds with Amen breaks and 8 bar grime to make a true club weapon. Munich’s Danny Scrilla released his first EP for Om Unit’s Cosmic Bridge label earlier this year and support for his raw sound was unanimous. Seemingly built on a template of vintage dubstep his remix subtly updates the dark sparse sound to a ‘slower than it feels’ 85bpm. Running double time the high hats add to the heavy head nodding roll and chest rattling subs of this ‘One to Watch’ artist. Look out for Danny Scrilla’s first EP for Civil Music late 2012. Japanese 2 x DMC world Champion DJ Kentaro closes out the package. Kentaro is a huge Reso fan and fresh from releasing his 2nd album on Ninja Tune, (a campaign to which Reso contributed a remix) whipped up a beat-juggling, electro-workout that lurches and bounces with more edits than you can count. | | schließen |

(PLUS FREE MP3 DOWNLOAD CODE) - Incl. "Been Lookin", "Freeze The Star", "Paperball", "Vibrate". / Civil Music’s latest transmission comes in the form of four advanced dancefloor cuts from Moscow’s Alexey Devyanin under his Pixelord moniker. Having a rich history in electronic music, with beats released under a number of different aliases (including a rich vein as Gultskra Artikler), Devyanin’s latest incarnation as Pixelord has seen the producer traverse a wealth of influences, from the experimental field recordings of Fennesz, to the heavy-hitting rhythms of a new Russian beats scene and beyond. With the Supaplex EP we see Pixelord taking the reins of an exciting new chapter for his country’s club music, leading the way through Russian juke, emotive digitalism and half-stepping bass works. Opening with the unmistakably Chi-Town indebted beat patterns of ‘Been Lookin’, the EP outlays the 2012 Pixelord dynamic; heavy trippin’ juke rhythms, pitched down ghost MC’s duetting with their angelic female counterparts, and sky high synths that sear their way across the heart. ‘Freeze The Star’ takes this template and twists it into a deeply layered ode to trap architects like DJ Toomp, Beat Billionaire and Burn One, part low swung call-to-arms, part melancholy reflection. Complete with Q-Tip’s heavily treated vocal sample and looped r’n’b couplets, the tracks multitude of components oscillate around each other, dipping and weaving throughout the waveform to create something equal parts solid and elegant. ‘Paperball’ follows, acting as a frenetically percussive demonstration of this artist’s programming chops – all tempered hand claps and rolling 303 drums – before finally ‘Vibrate’ rounds things off with perhaps a more recognizable UK lean. Gloopy, rumbling melodies scale their way across galvanized percussion, as stuttered MDMA-dipped synth work creating the perfect foil for the tracks second drop, which sees polyrhythmic UK funky-isms played out against a backdrop of broken halfstep beats. Alongside developing acts like 813, DZA, Lapti, OL and Vtgnike, Pixelord is spearheading a burgeoning Russian scene that’s progressing the bass game to the furthest corners of Europe – the Supaplex EP reaches far beyond this Muscovite’s neighbourhood, beaming his multi-faceted sound to the world. | | schließen |
