2024 Repress
Following the legendary first two, stoically super minimal records “SOG 1“ and “SOG 2“ that provide ecstasy disguised as boredom on Kompakt Extra/Speicher in 2007, and the outstanding beautifully bizarre “SOG - Abweichung“ on Profan in 2010, we are now listening to “FREMDE HÄNDE“. Like its predecessors, this SOG stands in the tradition of „The Art of Omission“ with Wolfgang Voigt variegating his preference for the bluntly straightforward quaver bass in two different forms. The A-side contains a tonally noncommittal sequence ambling across the keyboard in quantised form, reminiscing of the arpeggiator (accompaniment function) function of early 70ies' and 80ies' synthesizers. On the B-side, daring and thoroughly unquantised quaver rhythms rock around a bass drum that, as the only straight element, tries to keep the whole thing together. The result sounds a little like a delirious Can Live.

Nach den legendären ersten beiden stoisch-superminimalen, als Langeweile getarnten Ekstase-Platten “SOG 1“ und “SOG 2“ auf Kompakt Extra/Speicher in 2007 und der überaus skurril-schönen “SOG - Abweichung“ auf Profan in 2010, hören wir nun “FREMDE HÄNDE“. Auch diese SOG steht natürlich ganz in der Tradition der “Kunst des Weglassens“. Wolfgang Voigt variiert hier seine Vorliebe für den stumpf-geraden Achtelbass auf zwei verschiedene Weisen. Auf der A-Seite haben wir eine tonal unverbindlich über die Tastatur wandernde Sequenz in quantisierter Form, die an die Arpeggiator (Begleitautomatik) Funktion früher 70er und 80er Jahre Syntheziser erinnert. Auf der B-Seite kreist die Achtel-Rhythmik in eher rockigem Sound ganz und gar unquantisiert und rhythmisch gewagt um die Bassdrum, die das Ganze als einzig gerades Element versucht zusammen zu halten. Das klingt ein bisschen wie Can live im Vollrausch.

These days, skat fights with his other personality, oleg, the russian housemaster, weapons are big house beat, basses, rhodes, perks, pads, and on eklo skat is banging hard with his da hunterz ep

you secretly believe that all of the best dance music has an undercurrent of melancholy then you are in for a treat. 0.5, the debut EP from the Fascination Movement, doesn't skimp on either the dancefloor rhythms or the windswept yes-we-remember-New Pop romanticism. The Fascination Movement is looking forwards, not backwards: just because this is music that adapts the same vocabulary created by bands like New Order or early Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark doesn't change the fact that from the first arpeggios of "Just Pretend" you feel the shock of the new. Of course, you may be too busy humming along to the choruses to notice how slyly the band makes a classic sound fresh again...

Ellen Allien meldet sich mit ihrem brandneuen Studio-Album "Sool" zurück. Sie zählt zweifelsohne zu den Pionieren der elektronischen Musik und geniesst weltweit ein exzellentes Standing als Musikerin und DJ. Seit Anfang der 90er Jahre ist sie ein Garant und Aushängeschild für den typischen "Sound Of Berlin", den sie mit in die Welt getragen hat und zählt ganz klar zu den weltweit bekanntesten weiblichen DJs überhaupt.

Willkommen in der Allien Welt! "SOOL" ist subtil, geheimnisvoll und minimal. "SOOL" ist das NEUE Album von Ellen Allien. "Entstanden im Winter 2007/2008 in Berlin, als mein Ventil, mein Ausweg. Die Winter in der Stadt sind für mich schon immer eine sehr kreative Zeit gewesen; vor allem nach diesem heißen, durchgedrehten Sommer und Herbst 2007 in der Hauptstadt. Ich habe keine Gigs, ich bin sonst nie so lange an einem Ort. Ich drehe stattdessen im Studio an Knöpfen und Reglern und singe. "Yeah! Minimal - was bedeutet das für mich?" Minimal ist einfach da. Das umzusetzen, diese Unmittelbarkeit mit meinen Händen zu formen, das lag mir am Herzen. Ein Hauch von positiver, abgründiger Energie soll Platz für die Ohren schaffen. Für meine, deine, eure. Was ist SOOL? Wer ist SOOL? Wie ist SOOL? SOOL ist alles, Alles und Nichts davon - SOOL ist ein Fantasiewort, eine Schöpfung, die für mich die spezielle Atmosphäre des Albums reflektiert, aber auch meine eigene Person. Ich bin ich, ich bin aber auch das, was ihr aus mir macht, mit mir macht, was ich mit euch mache. SOOL ist Neugierde, Raum, Architektur. Skizzen, zeichnend! Festhaltend!" (Ellen Allien)

Lowfish originally released his 'Burn The Lights Out' LP in 2007 on the US label Satamile but we have found some copies of it in the warehouse. Synth-pop meets breakbeats in an electrifying fusion of emotive melodies and bass-heavy beats across all four sides of the long player with ten then-new tracks and two classics from his Sat.31 EP. They all show that his music, complex yet accessible, evokes images of Blade Runner, Wave Noir, or William Gibson. It is post-modern in approach as it skilfully blends past and present styles to create a sound uniquely his own, seamlessly bridging the gap between eras while pushing the boundaries in his own way.

Kenny Gino and Big Mike a.k.a. the Solid Gold Playaz both started playing records in the late 70's/early 80's. Having family from Chicago, who were DJ's and down with some of the big guys at the time, "heavily influenced our music and production styles" both say. "Living so close to the city, we could go down to all the legendary night spots. The Rainbow and the Warehouse, the Box, the Shelter... places where you could just feel the vibe. And you could hear guys like Farley Funkin' Keith, Ron Hardy, and Jammin' Gerald (the Chicago DJ/producer who is Kenny's cousin) play these incredible records". They both were hooked on the house sound, and would bring it back to their home, a small city named Racine, Wisconsin, located about an hour and half north of Chicago. They continued to develop their DJ and production skills into the 90's, but musically, weren't taking things very seriously until they met Chicago producer Louis Bell. He introduced them to many of the people who were building the mid-90's Chicago sound. "Louis gave us access... access to places we hadn't been before. He took us into the offices of Cajual/Relief Records and Underground Construction, and suddenly we were face to face with guys who were doing what we wanted to do... Cajmere, Paul Johnson, Glenn Underground... showing us that we could do this too. We did a few releases just to get our name out, and soon we had some pretty big named DJ's playing our music. We had DJ's actually looking for our records, and telling us how much they liked our sounds... that just blew us away, especially with very little promotion and in the limited numbers we were pressing... our music just started to build a name for itself."

months after the last Uturn output it's time for some news. The project C-MEM delivers this great debut contribution to the selective catalog of the Uturn label, the rude dark brother of Kanzleramt. The project fits perfectly with the small but like-minded Uturn label family. It's functional chord-techno without any intellectual concepts or advancements but with deep production skills and effective pure essentials.
