Cobblestone Jazz - India In Me - 17-Nov-06 03:57 PM
Cobblestone Jazz has been performing live electronic music for five years together. The three members of the group are programmer Tyger Dhula, keyboardists Danuel Tate and Mathew Jonson. The nature of their music balances electronic composition with a live and moving element that results in the exploration of many different styles. Cobblestone is a bit of an anomaly in this day and age of studio refinement, opting to approach music from a performance perspective first, as opposed to recreating studio pieces for their live shows. A large part of this is due to the involvement of Tate, whose background as a jazz musician has led to a large emphasis on playing live. The group’s influences range from jazz and dub to breakbeats and minimal techno, and many points in between. ‘India In Me’ has been one of the highlights of their recent live performances at venues including the Montreux Jazz Festival and Panorama Bar in Berlin. Likened by some to electronic whales singing to each other, the groove undulates and develops constantly over the course of each session. Both tracks are recorded and mixed in a live outboard setting. No pre-arrangement was done; the tracks are just improvised and mixed straight to tape. Both versions share the same principle parts – Mat playing the bassline on an SH-101 and Danuel on Vocoder jamming together – plus atmospherics from Tyger of an early live recording of Danuel playing trumpet through lots of reverb. The A side has a freer composition and broken rhythms while the B side appears straighter, more obviously for a club setting. Both build and destroy dancefloors, capturing minds and feet, waking us up to the unique and unmistakable sound of Cobblestone Jazz.
Yello - Bostich - 06-Jan-06 03:47 AM
Wow this is a crazy one... a yellow labeled release with an amazing track using some samples of Yello's Bostich track. This is a real crowd pleaser and fits in every dj set. Kind of techno meets house and this will fit in the box of techno, house and electro dj's. Some rocking samples, shaking percussion and the driving basslines make this an essential dj track. Great Record!
Adam Beyer - A Walking Contradiction - 07-Nov-05 02:07 AM
Adam Beyer teams up with Plus 8 for his first release in some time, and his first US release in ages. "AWC" finds Adam moving away from his usual pounding peaktime gear with this pair of bristling, driving techno winners that veer towards the more minimal sphere, with layers of gritty analog elements helping the track build continuously. One of the hottest records of the moment.
Jeff Mills - Blade Runner - 07-Nov-05 02:07 AM
Combine one of the best Sci-Fi movies of all time with the magical Jeff Mills and what do you get? This amazing three-trrack of music inspired by the classic film "Bladerunner" Composing dark cinematic orchestrations with complex sequences, Mills constructs tracks that are bold, dangerous and rightat the edge of a new era of electronic music. Here, Mills takes a progressive step further and transports traditional electronic music sounds to a classical music form. Not necessarily dancefloor techno, this is still a masterpiece of sound and inspiring to any fan of Mills or the film!

Holgi Star - Halli Galli - 29-Oct-05 08:17 PM
Dave Shokh and Holgi Star reunite for another release on the Hidden Agenda label. "Hali" combines a humming bassline with clicking beats, while driving layers of bristling synths take this minimal techno cut to the next level. On the reverse, "Galli" blends drifting synth hooks with deep, gritty analog bass, techy beats, and great effects on a track geared more towards the floor crowds.
