Enitokwa - Re-Promo (FF01) Snippets

030303 co-founder Freek Fabricius made this record in honour of his friend Floris Bovée who passed away early in 2020. For the EP, Freek took some of Floris’ musical ideas and reworked them - together with samples of Floris’ voice - into four excellent mid-tempo tracks for the emotional dance floor. Expect dense and organic harmonies on this record, which really feels like a mini album and is among some of the most heartfelt and poetic electronic music we have come across as of late. 

Artiest: Freek Fabricius
Titel: Zweven is Leven

A1: Holle Woorden (Emotional Piano Mix) 06:43

All tracks written and produced by Freek Fabricius in memoriam of Floris Bovée (1980 - 2020)

Investigative Podcast 
about the Lable M SQUARED for the Attic Magazine, Romania.

"M Squared is a pure DIYrecord lable which was run from a small recording studio in Sydney, Australia between 1979 and 1984, founded by Mitch Jones and Michael Tee. 
Together with a small group of diversly talented  friends, they gathered in the Wilshire Street, close to the studio of Doublethink records, to start their own project and go to war against the big record companies, with their ideas of "Oz Rock".
Through the following time great artists like Shane Fahey joined with an armful of cassettes of wonderful tunes that waited for their release and formed new projects like 'The Makers of the Dead Travel Fast'.
After some starting problems, they easily made it from a 4-track to an equiped studio, from cassettes to 12" records. The live appearances by Systematics and The Makers of the Dead Travel Fast over the summer 1981 started the fascinating challenge of trying to win over Australian pub audiences with M Squared's versions of "rock" music. Michael Tee started talking to promoters and venue owners and convincing them that an M Squared night was conducive to a lot of punters buying beer. 
A lot of great live shows were played.
The M Squared idea was, that music does not have to conform with any sound or style. 
New styles were created, new directions were set.
1984 sadly things did not go exactly to plan. By mid year M Squared was over. 1 Wilshire Street was abandoned and the three friends drifted apart."

The Attic: From The Archives: M Squared Stories

Travel just thirty kilometers south from Amsterdam and you’ll find another world where jogging pants are the new cool and people actually feel free to smile when they go out. You have arrived in Utrecht. Call it Little Cornwall if you will, because it was in the South-West corner of England that lads like Aphex Twin, Luke Vibert and Mike Paradinas made their quirky yet emotional electronic music without acting cool as was common practice in the dancemusic scene at the time.
 
It’s exactly this Cornish way of life that appealed to the boys of Utrecht’s dj-collective and recordlabel 030303. Mind you, 030303 are not ashamed of their love for serious IDM and glitch flavoured tunes by contemporary hotshots .But they also enjoy watching the unsure expressions on the faces of their fellow music lovers whilst playing eurotrashy tunes by the likes of Twenty 4 Seven and Quadrophonia in trashy taverns such as Tivoli, Ekko, Melkweg and Kikker.
 
As healthier ways of living came into fashion in the 1980s, acid became more than a mere chemical substance and started to come out of machines as well. Despite their very young age, the 030303 crew became a huge fan of a particular bassline machine made by the Roland corporation and so did other now big names such as Cylob, D’Arcangelo and Ceephax amongst others, all of which come and celebrate the acid bleep at 030303 events around Utrecht and the dandy town of Amsterdam.
 
Being right in the middle of the happening acid-scene, the 030303 crew could not help doing what any other freak would do: they had to start releasing acid-tunes by Braindance veterans as well as by younger musicians. 030303’s chart-toppers range from subtle to bombastic and highly psychedelic, the common denominator always being a very deep bleep.
 
It’s just as fantastic as you’ve just read: 030303 brings a very complete picture that will never be equaled by any other crew. Feel free to rock up at any 030303 event near you but don’t forget to dress up as corny as possible! Aciiiiieeed!!!
