proper four track vinyl from the nyc legend : lb bad

the berlin-based producer is kicking off his label with a four-track single. while he is perhaps not as name-checked as some of the hardware hawking house heads of modern times, arttu snellman has been working hard at gritty box jams for a good few years now. he first appeared under his arttu guise in 2011 with the nuclear funk and fear diluted singles on royal oak and philpot respectively, and then proceeded to wheel out tunes for 4 lux and chiwax over the ensuing years. prior to the tough-edged pump of his current ventures, you could find snellman indulging in a more laptop-centric kind of practice under the name lump. this more minimalistic, glitchy house fodder could be found on labels such as karloff, morris/audio and süd electronic amongst many others. back in the here and now though, arttu was last spotted on clone jack for daze earlier this year with the rave dogz 12”, and next up he’s taking matters into his own hands. existing fans of arttu will be more than pleased with the heavyweight, crunchy tackle that inhabits cyblo01. this is dynamic business with same heft found on previous releases from snellman, mixed in with the cheeky flair that has always marked his productions out in a crowded marketplace.

london based punk duo black volume are not easy to classify. their delirious industrial post punk sounds at times like proto house and at times becomes some sort of mutant electro. their b series sound is made of a conglomerate of filthy percussions, unexpected samples and something with the appearance of melody, with a weirdly addictive result. black rubber is james brown wearing black leather at 40ºc (in the shade) while suffering a mental breakdown. excentric melodies sliding down rhythmic dislexia. negative return blooms from an improvised beat with no traceable sequence, on top of which we find rubbery synth lines, creamy interferences and mysterious sampling, everything sounds like melting from old vhs footage with the future we enter a romantic dystopia. sensual and passionate but equally crunchy, it rises up through cheap calculator arpeggios, pitched vocals and obsessive bass lines. streetfight evoques a desolate landscape, devastated and radioactive. distant echoes from an extinguished human race that left behind only majestic rusty ruins.

nice price deal !!! this ep is the culmination of over a decade of research into the hidden mysteries that dictate the workings of the power structure of the world we live in. the vocals reference situations and phenomenon hiding in plain sight. the matrix is real, and for those wishing to know more this ep is n essential guide. a1- is future modern aaacid house in ¾ time. the odd time signature works in unison with the phrenetic pastor manning telling it like it is with regards to the corrupt us president. the worst in the history of the entire nation. a2 - references jose’s delgato’s mind control experiments and the fact that this technology exists and is in use today. the track was made using the advanced mathematical scheme known as the golden ratio to achieve maximum “pleasure response” from those listening and dancing to it. b1 - emotive chord work along with a huge rolling bass line set the stage for redsilverj’s vocals about the 2 types of people with regards to the new world order. those who will sell out, and those who will wake up. period! lots of changes, melodies, and counter melodies work to make this the most beautiful sounding cut on the record. lush deep house. b2 - the deepest darkest house. ominous almost foreboding chords lay a murky foundation that quickly unfolds like a ghostly mist. the vocals are about the artificial womb phenomenon and the fact that humans will react and be treated like cattle by the elites. late late night deep banging higher consciousness house.

keeping the concept of a tight knit family of artists, up next on sol asylum is the follow up ep for the dilated pupils titled introducing remi. this collective of likeminded artists from the netherlands return to the label with a solid four-track ep that shows their range and diversity as producers. moving full speed ahead we start off with “remi at 21.16” a track that instantly hypnotizes you on the dance floor with its echoing harmonic synths and a complex metallic snare pattern. the track is a slow burner that explodes when the dirty analog kick, swinging bassline, and filtered percussion melt into an atomic fusion. next we take it to the next level with “do” its underwater bubbling percussion, bleeping stabs and eerie synth take us to the far off corners of space with just enough acid to keep our heads down and grooving to the strobe light in a dark room. as we move into fall with “october times” a tightly woven groove and galloping kicks push us into more experimental territory with soaring vintage synths that create tension and finesse at the same time. finally we finishing things off with the esoteric vibes of “suque” this deep and dirty track channels the positive force from another realm, which is the perfect match for the inspiriting concept of sol asylum.
