Ohrwert, one of several monikers utilized by Arjen Schat, brings Recycled Plastics some of the finest electronic music from the heart of the Netherlands.

Er.iC : Unke / Return of the Wobble Bass [PNR0009]

“On the PN release Nr. 9 Er.iC lets his roots show once again. With ‘Return of the Wobble Bass’ he delivers a bassline that promises us fun times on the floor like we used to have during the heydays of jump-up, but not without putting it into a very contrary context. Surrounded by psychedelic elements the tune is an absolute enrichment to any set, no matter how deep, liquid or neuro it might be. Everything goes, and that’s exactly what you’ll notice when listening to this piece of music.

With ‘Unke’ (German for ‘toad’) Rostock’s wunderkind Er.iC achieved what many have tried before: a minimal adaptation of Drum’n’Bass. The ingenious mixture of abstract beats, uncommon arrangements and a fun bass is what lets ‘Unke’ become a true Frog King. Once kissed on the dancefloor the track unfurls its beauty and does not only enchant the ladies with a minimal lightness that you haven’t heard before.”

Various Artists : Iron: Dragon’s Eye Sixth Anniversary [de6010]

“The release of Iron marks the sixth anniversary of Yann Novak relaunching Dragon’s Eye Recordings, the record label originally created by his father Paul Novak in 1989. In previous years, this anniversary compilation has been a chance to look forward to the coming year of artists and releases. With Iron, we will be looking backward at the previous 6 years.
For Iron, artists featured on Dragon’s Eye were asked to contribute either a solo piece or a collaboration with another Dragon’s Eye artist. The results came together as a massive free download compilation, consisting of 24 artists, on 20 tracks and over 2 1/2 hours of sound. The compilation came together as a perfect mix of the styles and voices featured on Dragon’s Eye over the last 6 years.”
