The World is not a Cherry Pie E.P.

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on April 7, 2011

“Sarp Yilmaz is based in Istanbul, likes cats and punk rock, but no contemporary art. Aha. That is all pretty well, but what actually matters here is that he also produces fantastic house tunes. After numerous releases on labels such as Acker, Unfoundsound or Fassade, we are proud to present his latest EP on Broque, now. Not only couldn’t we agree more with its title The World is not a Cherry Pie, but it also contains five playful house tracks meandering in between organic jazz vibes, dubby deep house and old-school piano and vocal snippets. Apparently, Sarp covers a large chunk of the classic house music range and benefits from a great ability to play with vocals in a very charming way in order to make his tracks groove.”

OVERCAST SOUND // Holding Pattern Remixes [bsc_008]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on April 5, 2011

“A follow-up to Overcast Sound’s first ep on basic_sounds, Holding Pattern Remixes takes the title track from the original ep and offers it up for remixing by three artists who have influenced the Canadian duo.

Chicago’s Area (aka m50) extends upon the dreamy deepness of the original, pulling sounds and patterns into the foreground to create a remarkably new groove. Hailing from France, Fingers in the Noise moves things into a grittier domain with a slightly overdriven low end and filtered swells that will surely please the dance floor. The most dramatic reworking comes from Vancouver’s The Automatic Message who strip the track of the more obvious dub techno references in favour of an ever-mutating techno excursion.”
