Un rapsod indian, lucrator in industria filmului si in particular lautar la nunti, isi cumpara un 303 si un 808 si face in 1982 un album care acum ii pune pe critici in situatia de a reevalua data nasterii acid house-ului. Kraftwerk live at the Taj Mahal.

Honest Jon’s Records / 2010 / try part1 part2 / buy
“Throughout Splazsh it feels like we’re listening to an artist for whom techno is an inspiration, but not something that he wishes to imitate; indeed, techno is to Splazsh what garage was to Burial’s debut LP; ever-present, a foundation even, but somehow also a ghost, an impression, something only half-perceived – through a fug of blunted memory and YouTube overload and serotonin-depletion. Crucially, though, there’s a flamboyance, and wit, to proceedings; it’s not all rain-grey melancholy, nightbus paranoia and makeshift Pot Noodle ashtrays. There’s life and colour everwhere: see the Model 500-meets-Todd Edwards ‘Always Human’, the sinewy Metroplexisms of ‘Let’s Fly’ or the overloaded dubstep-not-dubstep of ‘Wrong Potion’. Rather than being a cold-blooded enactment of “techno”, one of those wet-ink facsimiles churned out by Motor City Drum Ensemble or whoever, Splazsh is a beautiful, highly personal misinterpretation, or mishearing, of its tropes. Hauntological house, anyone? Or simply the first truly British-sounding techno album of the 21st century? Splazsh raises more questions than it answers, and anyone interested in the continued evolution and involution of house/techno needs to hear it.” Kiran Sande in FACT

“If you’re so into your computer, it might as well be giving you a blowjob as far as I’m concerned … to me it sounded like what a computer would if it had the ability to actually perform the act”
“We always wanted the flow of information to be less giving to the public. If we gave less away, then you would only get the people who really made an effort—in doing that, we managed to create a vibe which I’ve never really felt anywhere else. It’s something that is still applied to the label. If you make the effort to find out what we’re up to, then it’s our intention to give you something special.” Actress

Circus Company / mai 2010 / try / buy
LIVE @ PLAYGROUND 2, 12 IUNIE 2010, ASTORIA, SNAGOV
Canadianul de origine franceza care locuieste la Berlin, Guillaume & the Coutu Dumonts a ajuns la cel de-al doilea album, Breaking the Fourth Wall, scos in mai la Circus Company. Albumul trece granitele house si techno si aduce piese atat ambientale cat si pentru ringul de dans, sustinute de percutii africane si latino. Avem si acid jazz. Toate cele 11 piese sunt facute cu instrumentatie live: orga, saxofon si mai ales chitari. Exista si invitati, precum americanul Dave Aju care aici pune voce, dar el poate canta orice sunet din gura, si francezii de la dOP, cu care a mai colaborat acum doi ani, pe EPul I was on My Way to Hell. Albumul face mai mult sens ascultat ca un intreg, decat pe piese, pentru ca Guillaume s-a straduit sa-l faca sa sune precum o trupa o live. Text despre artist aici, primul album aici.

Fanas – Pumpkin-seed
Fanas – Coconut (batut cu picioarele)
Fanas – Apricot
Old news pentru unii dar total revelation pentru mine. Evit sistematic zona hip hopului romanesc pe care o asociez inca cu sisu si puya. My bad, cand Minus mi l-a recomandat pe Fanas acum cateva luni am realizat ca nu e deloc asa si ca lucrurile s-au miscat intr-o directie foarte buna. Nu imi dau inca seama daca Fanas e un personaj singular sau s-a creat vreo scena in jurul lui da promit sa ma interesez. Pana atunci, FANAS LIVE la Postcochet pe 7 mai.
