Steve Foulds : Polar EP [CUT018]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Steve Foulds calls upon his wealth of experience from within the realms of techno, house and dub-techno to bring us two slowly evolving deep techno masterpieces. The aptly named Polar EP is Steve’s first release in three years, and his Cut debut.

Fans of Rod Modell’s projects such as Deepchord and Echospace as well as those who appreciate artists such as Quantec, Bvdub, Deadbeat and Efdemin are all likely to find something within these tracks to relate to, and hopefully discover something new at the same time.

Steve also runs the excellent online resource ADSR Sounds where music producers can find presets, sounds, patches, samples and video courses.”

nigul : vol [self released]

“To compose these two pieces I’ve been working with different generative configurations and random sound devices. The result was brighter than usual, including a slight shift towards dub and a gentle touch of rhythm. Hope you like it.”

ROBotron : Chaos EP [AE072]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“This 5 tracker is Robotron’s first solo release on Audioexit label. Spring kicks in with fresh and juicy but still hard sounds. The whole EP has this chaotic monotony reflecting very well to the title. The real cruel industrial pumping comes with track 3 (Alien Creature) – fortunately it takes only 5 minutes before we sink into the chaos on the dancefloor. The release has only one offbeat track at the end unlike his last EP @ Zimmer (Agora) which is a fully out-of-4/4, more experimental 7-incher. Chaos EP is a steel hammer with smashed flowers on its surface.”

Sunjaman : Outta Here [DPH012]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Sunjaman is an upcoming producer from Athens, Greece. Being a musician & bass player himself, he has always been exploring the sound of the bass, trying to travel into new territories on his effort to establish his own sound. On the process of exploring the bass territory, he had joined many bands and created numerous side-projects, from punk to hiphop. Nevertheless, dub has always been his main goal.

Inspired by the originality of roots dub and influenced by the modern dub steppa scene, he began to produce and public his tracks online. He made his debut release in 2013 and continued with many collaborations and releases. This is the first time he collaborates with Dubophonic. The style of Sunjaman’s can’t be described by only one musical genre. It combines many elements of bass music, such as dubstep, jungle, steppa, roots, dubwise. This is eminent in this 7-track EP, consisting of three original tracks and four alternative cuts.

Nuff respect to Northical from the Greek band/soundsystem Kako Synapantima for vocalising ‘Heavyweight Sound’, as well as Manwel T from Dubkey Records for his version of ‘Outta Here’. Big shout out also to Jungle Raiders for a very energetic jungle cut of ‘Witness the day’. The cover art is credited to Katerina Arvaniti.”
