With summer on its way we travel to Brazil for our 2nd release this year from a talented producer Alan Becker.  Learning Machines & This is Afrofuturism delivers a deep crafted 808, 909 drums, basslines, with dub sounding stabs, routing in a deep melodic journey for the ultimate experience. Alan shows us why he is an explorer of techno and house, his identity is groovy, authentic, while staying true to the core roots of his sound and soul.

Antwon Faulkner's Minimal Nation remix is the 3rd track. It represents everything and all things Detroit. Taking the original chord a few octaves lower, replacing the drums, adding droning synths, deep melodic chords, a pressing groove with more driving energy, while keeping the melodic deep atmosphere of the original. This musical story comes together well with a vocal explaining the origins of a sound movement that began in Detroit The Techno City. He ends this journey the same way it begins with his signature, structure, breaking down.  

Enjoy

Premiere | Alan Becker - Learning Machines (Antwon Faulkner's Minimal Nation Remix)

Antwon Faulkner has been in the game since the late 80’s. Born and raised in Detroit, Antwon started hustling mix-tapes at the age of sixteen. With music in his blood, this is truly what he was born to do.

At thirty-five Antwon briefly relocated to Arizona but it wasn’t until late 2008, when he moved to Toronto, did we really get exposed to this next exciting chapter. While people may be more familiar with his DJ moniker, the infamous “Twonz,” in 2009 we got to know a new Antwon, an Antwon re-energized, excited and motivated. His focus shifted from throwing parties and DJing to making music and really honing his craft as a producer. Spending countless hours in the studio, Antwon is careful to avoid listening to others while in his creative zone so the product reflects him and him alone, devoid of any outside influences. With an upgrade in equipment and new pieces of gear, we’ve seen Antwon turn a corner in which he has found his lane and is settling in really nicely. The results are heard in using less loops and playing more of his own keys. While he still regularly releases tracks on his own imprint, “Hijacked Records Detroit,” recent years have seen him spreading the love with multiple releases and remixes on “Restructured Recordings,” “Bulletdodge Records,” “KMS Records,” "Downside UP," "Elephanthaus," "Thoughtless Music," "Motech LTD," "UNT Records," "Frequenza," "Sampled Detroit," and "RF Trax."

In 2018 he received the “TESTIMONIAL RESOLUTION PLAQUE” from the city of Detroit. His contributions in bringing the sound of Detroit to an international audience has caught the attention of many DJs worldwide. Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, Gene Farris, DJ Bone, Seth Troxler, Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, Steve Bug, Carl Cox, Kevin Saunderson, Kenny Larkin, DJ Heather, Pete Tong, Paco Osuna, Luigi Madonna, Hector Moralez, Stanny Abram, Stacey Pullen, and many more have played Faulkner’s tracks!
