Textural Being : The Sixth Gap [BC30]

Textural Being is a name that many of you should know by now, if you’ve been keeping up with who’s who in the current dub techno scene. Having released several fantastic works on labels such as Cold Tear, Deep In Dub, Energostatic, ZeECc, Auditory Cortex and Cold Fiction, among others, Mr. Being is now moving on from the moniker, transitioning over to a new project simply called aspect. Thus, The Sixth Gap is (in our humble opinion) not only one of his best excursions to date, but also one hell of an album to close the book on the Textural Being name.

The music is deep, moody and evocative of its namesake with swirling soft textures in spades. Groovy bass drums anchor the rhythm in a fog of floaty chords, their constant thumping a ghost of some long-forgotten deep house memory. What Textural Being evokes so well here is an air of familiarity while simultaneously sounding fresh and interesting. In a genre that is no doubt overflowing with homogeneity and monochrome, The Sixth Gap offers a vibrant atmosphere of just what good dub techno could and should be. Backed by a stellar remix cast of Axs, Ohrwert, Yan Olsen and Coppice Halifax, and limited to just 50 CD-Rs!”

Terrorrythmus : Adaption Disorder Remixes Pt. 2 [YARN010]

Terrorrhythmus’ ‘Adapion Discorder’ seems to be Yarn’s most smashing EP to date, judging by the almost endless amount of remixes. After the release of the uptempo remix-pack back in June, Yarn now presents Adaption Disorder Remixes Pt. 2. The second remix-EP keeps up with the high energy, concentrating on a dancefloor-friendly tempo-range.

From Germany’s rough bank capital Frankfurt comes machine-musician Chris Geschwindler. The affiliate of the young label polen.rec woves ’40h’’s pads and samples together with a shuffled house groove. His remix develops over eight minutes, leaving smiles everywhere with its airy and sunny atmosphere.

A totally different interpretation of ’40h’ comes from Llyphon. Terrorrhythmus’ mate from Bremen already released on his imprint Betonblume and DubKraftRecords. With stumbling bassdrums, flirring hi-hats and washed-out samples he transforms Terrorryhthmus’ trap track into a lush and varied piece of contemporary electronic music.

Also from Bremen comes producer and DJ in demand Tobs who just dropped his first vinyl on Drowned Records. His «Leaving Home»-version of ‘Post Smack’ is full of warm pads and synths, unfolding sentimental feelings over a pretty straight house beat.

Uprising Belgian producer Take Away The Noise seems to have hardcore in his blood. His seven minute long adaption of ‘Post Smack’ utilizes the original’s vocals in a stumping techno garment. Breaks and shuffled bassdrums penetrate the rough track which is designed to destroy dancefloors.”

Redred & Old Boy Inc. : Mimesis/Summer Jam [SOMO002]

“A / redredred – mimesis
Driving claps and cheerful hi-hats, a calm patiently flowing beat and a dusty organ – a warm and raw house track! With his debut mimesis redredred from muenster, cofounder of sonic moiré, throws in a piece that beat by beat developes its effect through its catching structure revealing the unexpected to the listener. Just like the ‘break’ reduces the entire speed of it only to energetically merge into the main part. Mimesis wants to be more than just a simulation.

B / Old Boy Inc. – summer jam
With summer jam, Old Boy Inc. serves the right track for a perfect summer day and designs the sonic moiré-sound of the season in his own unique way. Floating percussive rhythms are carrying spacious synth-sounds that guarantee smiling faces. Funky guitars are dancing over the beat and frame the wonderfully crisp bass.”
