DEADLETTER - Fit For Work (Josh Ludlow Edit)

This is a 57 minute DJ mix by Duncan Gray containing all of the tracks from his forthcoming album "Five Fathoms Full" which is released on May 30th 2024

This is DG's 5th album for tici taci and can be loosely described as "Electronic cosmiche dub disco" as all tracks feature dubby guitars, a large array of analogue synths - all recorded as Live audio takes, the so called "rhythms of the night", and more than a whiff of what used be called Kr**tr*ck .

the album will be released exclusively on bandcamp initially and will be available for a reasonable sum of money on Friday 31st May 2024

Duncan Gray - Five Fathoms Full (album Promo Mix)

ARTIST: THE ANALOG SESSION
TITLE: BLACK GROUND
LABEL: HOT ELEPHANT
CAT. NO: HEM1511
FORMAT: CD / DIGITAL 
RELEASED: 11 MAY 2015

Italian electronic pioneers, Alexander Robotnick and Ludus Pinsky deliver their second album as The Analog Session. 'Black Ground' is a journey into electronic music, from the early 70s to modern techno, performed only with vintage analogue synths.

Wires, cables, knobs, keyboards: they are still a vital part of The Analog Session’s improvised world. But as opposed to 2013’s ‘April’ album, ‘Black Ground’ is more dance orientated in its vision. Although most of the tracks originate from improvisation, there’s more editing work on their individual parts so that they sound more structured and danceable than usual.

Initially conceived as a video project (currently with over 320,000 hits on Youtube), The Analog Session then became an album project and finally a live performance. For Alexander Robotnick and Ludus Pinsky it’s not about being nostalgic for an era they represented but is more a progression and improvisation in the present music scene currently dominated by computers. Like the vintage analog gear the pair use, the Analog Session is a living, breathing entity. On the one hand capable of organic brilliance and on the other, breaking down at a moment’s notice.

The new album tracks range from electro-disco to techno, opening up to melody and chord arrangements throughout. ‘My Dream’ for instance is an introspective theme that is developed through different arrangements, alternating with an almost electro-house rhythm. ‘Lonely Dancers’ is made up by a sequence of synth notes whose sound transforms and becomes the backbone of a track that could be perhaps be seen as ‘minimal-electro’ whilst ‘We Are Here’ has a style that's more difficult to define. As in ‘My Dream’, here too a dream-like theme disrupts the minimal atmosphere that provides the tracks structure.

‘Space Circle’ is built on an harmonic progression of four chords, repeated throughout the track whilst undergoing continuous variations - inversions and substitutions - where the tone-colour of the analog synths fully capture the alternating soundscape. ‘Shure I Like’ injects an element of 80s synth pop with its infectious melody providing a link to the duo’s long-estbalished past but ‘Wild Electrons’ takes us further into future-space as the duo explore the sound potential of the latest (polyphonic) synth assembled by Ludus Pinsky.

Finally ‘Black Ground’, the title track, brings us back to planet Earth where the analog sound reveals its concrete, earthly nature. The CD also includes two previously digital only remixes: ‘Ascension’ (Late Night Rmx) and ‘Effai’ (Late Night Rmx).

DC Promo Tracks: Los Tres Moretones "A Lo Hecho, Pecho" (El Triángulo Remix)

It was time to take a deep breath. That was all that was left to do in the scenario, he watched as his stomach rose and fell as he watched the waves drift on by.

The sea was a reflection of his mental state – it moved slowly, the waters deep and malleable, much like his soul.

He was guided by the power of his own delicate meditation.

1,2,3,4…

He observed everything around him, gazing softly but without sincerity. Things were moving everywhere.
