Drumcomplex & Frank Sonic  - The Leopard (Phobiq)

Hard driving, beats dropping, project incoming.

From my mind to yours...

“How do things come to life? How does meaning appear?” These are questions that have informed Lifestream, the 2019 release by German composer, electronic producer, and classically trained pianist @johannes-motschmann. Conceived as a narrative arc, the album reflected the natural cycle of all things – from birth to death. Meticulously composed and gloriously realised, it succeeded in bringing such overarching concepts to life in rich, vivid ways. A year on, the German musician has invited friends and collaborators to breathe even more life into Lifestream for a new remix EP.

English techno pioneer, @luke-slater and German Berghain veteran, @chris-liebing both chose to remix the title track of Motschmann’s album taking the original tune into their own clubby spheres. Slater, who is a household name in the Brit-techno since the early 90s gave his version of Lifestream an insistent beat under which echoes of piano and other fragments of Motschmann’s track can be heard nostalgically. Liebing, who is a driving force in the German electronic music world with his ever- innovative approach, took the track into a deep and dark world of his own.

“What fascinated me most about Luke and Chris’ remixes was that they both developed the music and its underlying traces in very different ways, so what are actually secondary voices in my track suddenly came to the fore, and the main voices recede,” observes Motschmann of the two reworks. “It's like a development into worlds of sound in which my music might otherwise never appear - As DJs, Luke and Chris take a different outlook on music making than I do, with my often very theoretical approach. The remixes have given me the opportunity of a new perspective: the composer becomes an astonished listener of his own melodies because they unexpectedly appear in a different context.”

Chris Liebing is DJ, producer, radio host and the driving force behind the labels CLR and Spinclub Recordings. His sound has continuously evolved during his DJ career, always true to his techno roots. Although his contributions to the field have already firmly established him as one of the field’s great names, Liebing continues to innovate in the DJ booth with a setup more befitting a teenage computer game obsessive as well as releasing new material time and again. He’s known for playing hard, bouncy techno that is inspired by philosophy; always-deep tracks that range from looming apocalyptic landscapes filled with a sense of dread, to more optimistic emotional meditations.

Second State’s next various artist offering comprises a broad and varied selection of stand-out producers from the UK, Holland, Israel, Spain and beyond. Bristling with 11 vibrant pieces, SUM 10 exhibits the ever-evolving sound of the accomplished Berlin imprint.

Long-standing luminary of Tel-Aviv’s underground scene @yotamavni opens up with “Afrika Salam”, a chuggy cut with tribal and abstract sonic elements. Following is a return to Second State from Amsterdam based producer @tahko, who incorporates pulsating basslines, distorted mechanics and a doomy, trembling vocal sample in “Relieved”. Switching things up is Berlin based duo @mistakemade, who equip the album with their buzzing, breaks infused cut “Othau”.

Next up are three producers who give us a glimpse into what’s to come on Second State over 2021. Londoner @kai_van_dongen uses mesmeric notes that swirl above thumping bass in his glistening roller “Hypno 5”, while Madrid’s @indirapaganotto incorporates a trembling kick and hissing female vocal that vigorously build tension in her contribution “Katsumi”. Next up is Portuguese producer @hollden_official with “Myosotis”, a bubbling electro-infused expedition that immerses listeners by sampling deep, shallow breaths and radio chatter. Italy’s @giorgiaangiuli-1 & @boston-168 join forces on the record, enlisting Angiuli’s airy vocals and the Italian duo’s signature acid sound for psychedelic track “Entrainment”.

Resistance is Techno resident @endrewmusic from Italy comes back to his debut label with “Release”, complete with a colossal kick drum, jumping chords and dreamy pads that float deftly under heaving percussion. German producer duo @dysfaction take the reins next in “Synaptic Accelerator”, opening with a kick and pulsating synths before a bellowing organ commands focus. Rounding off the compilation are two immensely skilled Spanish producers, David Granha and Auriga. @dgranha steps up with arpeggiated metal riffs and nonlinear hi-hats in his vigorous composition “Roopkund”, maintaining the energy of the record with many layers of instrumentation. Closing out is @aurigasound with her epilog “This Is Our World”, a booming kick drum sets the pace whilst a robotic voice echoes and fades, allowing scattered keys, sharp synths and snare drums to bring a menacing tone to the finish.

Somewhere

I've been working hard and keeping things quiet this past 6 months but I've taken a small step back from Djing (still playing live events) to finally put my time into production.

Last week I got my first track signed which will be forthcoming on a Classic Trance based label, more info to follow on that, but I'm also sharing a remix that I just finished on Sasha's timeless classic track - Xpander

It's a dreamy, melodic breaks rework,

This remix blends lush, floaty trance vibes with deep progressive breaks — created for late night journeys, and with true progressive lovers in mind.

If you enjoy it, please drop a comment or repost to share the vibes
