From one of my favourite producers who so brilliantly remixed Matthew Dear - It's Over now, this new lp it's all we can hope for! A great album from a skillfull guy that's been deejaying for almost twenty years.
"This 12-track album isn't meant to be played at a rave. It just isn't that type of album. Instead, it seems like Grummich wants his audience to strap on some headphones, throw this album in and just let the sounds fall into their ears - without any other message or direction than what they conceive in their own minds. He's the musical equivalent of one of those shrinks who hold up cards with funny ink blot images on them and asks how they make you feel. "
Techno minimal in subtle finger prints!

Matt John - Joker Family Park One


Format: 12"
Label:
Perlon
Catalog: Perl 049
Style: Minimal

Tracklisting:

A1 - Princess Unknown (10:05)
B1 - The Rising Scope (6:38)
B2 - Ferro Sanol Duodenal (7:29)

Released by the great Perlon label, entitled ''Joker Family Park One'' it marks the first part of an, hopefully, endless story . At the beginning, we meet miss ''Princess Unknown'', who rings the bell with enjoyable and fluid passion. After the best track of this 12"- ''The Rising Scope'' - a dark, acid, detroit style track full of paranoia, we finally reach ''Ferro Sanol Duodenal'', which marks the end of this smashing debut of Matt John.

Pantha Du Prince - Butterfly Girl Versions





Format: 12"
Label:
Dial
Catalog: Dial 23
Style: Techno, Minimal




Tracklisting:

A1 - Butterfly Girl (Sten Version) (6:35)
A2 - Butterfly Girl (Pantha Du Prince Lost The Beat) (9:04)
B1 - Butterfly Girl (Efdemin Persephone Version) (8:13)


"'Butterfly Girl' is one of the brightest shining jewels on Pantha du Prince's album Diamond Daze (Dial 2004). As remixers he invites his friends Efdemin and Sten aka Lawrence. Efdemin makes classical minimal grooving, with soulful sounds that make it deep on the floor. With Stens remix the 'Butterfly Girl' enters the Detroit-linked pumping zone related to his releases on Sender and Dial and on the latest Cocoon compilation as well. A bonus version of Pantha du Prince himself analyzes the basic ingredients of the original track and follows his genius sound research as Gluhen 4 (Dial CD in 2002)."
A powerfull version by Sten,for me, one of the best tracks of the year.
