Numbers 10
NYC – November 29 
London – December 7
Glasgow – December 13 

Portland was produced by our good friend Dave Clark aka Sparky and was the first record we released in 2002, about a year before the first ever Numbers party took place.

Originally recorded live to tape using an MMT8, a Microwave II, and an ESi32 in the summer of 1998, it was released on an old label of ours named Stuffrecords and formed part of a somewhat rambling compilation called STUFF001. We hastily stuck this record out without any proper distribution, because at the time we didn’t know any better. Despite this, the record did pretty well, selling 500 copies to a few select stores who had faith in what we were doing.

Fast forward a year or so to when Numbers kicked off and the track became one of the first bonafide anthems in the club. It was our tune and it would tear the roof off at any of our parties.

A couple of years later, we booked DJ Pete, aka 'Substance' to play. We’re talking about the record in the pub when he suddenly informs us that Ricardo Villalobos is crazy about it and even charted it. This was a deep, almost Drexciyan electro track and here was the king of crazy experimental minimal house music caning it in his DJ sets.

Not long after that night, the Numbers label was up and running and the idea to re-release Portland with a remix from Mr Villalobos was brought up almost as a kind of pipe-dream. Now in 2013, with a little help from Gerd Janson, it has finally happened. Recorded live in one take and clocking in at over 30 minutes long, it’s cited as an "experiment" by Ricardo. Designed to play at two speeds, at 33rpm it's almost like an early 90s Black Dog track stretched out to infinity, whilst at 45rpm, it’s a club-ready groover with an almost Dopplereffekt rhythm to it – the sort you could imagine sneaking into a DJ Assault or Godfather Ghettotech mix. Somehow, it also manages to be classic Villalobos.

To finish off the record Dave gave us two unheard tracks from those original Portland sessions in 1998. The malevolent electro of ‘Jigsaw’ would instantly have become another Numbers anthem if only Dave had let us hear it ten years ago, and closer track ‘Wilson St’ heads down an ambient route.

About Sparky
Dave’s a bit of a legend. In the early 90s he was a member of Glasgow Techno band State Of Flux who released on JD Twitch’s old label T&B Vinyl. Their first live show was supporting The Black Dog in 1992 at an old Glasgow venue called Industria, and they were also the support at the first ever Jeff Mills show in Glasgow. Later on Dave would release records under the name Truffle Club and regularly collaborated with JD Twitch on remixes under the Optimo (Espacio) banner. Dave and his brother Craig also released an ep under the name ‘Music At Nite’ for former Numbers label Wireblock. Most recently, he’s been working under the name LUMA for Optimo Trax.

DUMMY EXCLUSIVE

TAKEN FROM THE UPCOMING ALBUM "SND.PE VOL.02: CROSSOVER SERIES"
OUT 27th OF JANUARY
Pre-order here: https://itunes.apple.com/album/id790337169

"Since their collaboration on SND.PE VOL.1’s 'Rick', Matthias Zimmermann & SCNTST have made their little studio sessions together a fine habit. 'Tommy' is the result of another one of these sessions. It starts off quietly as the balearic sun rising in the morning, then goes into the type of unexpected crazy broken-drum screwed-jungle offensive-jazz madness only these two would be capable of. "

We have the premiere of 'The Pit' which is the joyously unique effort from L-Vis 1990 and Sinjin Hawke. Teki Latex sums it up perfectly:

"Night Slugs' L-Vis 1990 and Pelican Fly’s Sinjin Hawke have come together to deliver a grimy, swampy, deviant and beastial track featuring heavy breathing down your neck and a voice saying “Trapped: it’s just me & u now”. Basically this is the sound of sex with a robot alligator covered with synthetic leather skin."

Premiere: L-Vis 1990 & Sinjin Hawke 'The Pit'

We're really pleased to be premiering a brand new exclusive from the latest Sound Pelligrino Crossover Series which is out today! This track sees producers Crackboy and Jean Nipon meld their talents together to create super-smooth minimal magic.

"There’s a lot going on in “Disstopia” but it all comes together coherently. Nicolas Malinowsky’s skate-video-part-sampling “Skateboarder” from SND.PE VOL.01 made a lot of noise in the skateboard community, and when we played it to skate afficionado Tommy Kruise he instantly felt the connection. The two exchanged stems, ideas, bits and pieces back & forth until Malinowsky came up with a draft of a track, which he sent to Kruise who proceeded to screw and chop it using his trademark drowsy menacing space-conscious method." - Teki Latex

CRYSTAL — "Get It" EP out June 24th

01. Get It?! (feat. Teki Latex)
02. Telephonic
03. Construction
04. Crystal Forest

We're back like blossom in the spring after a short winter hiatus to present you the new EP by some old Japanese friends: CRYSTAL. Some of you might remember them from their two awesome releases on the late Institubes "Initiative" and "Magic". The group formed by Shinya Sato, Keita Onishi, Ryota Miyake & Sunao Maruyama is known for incorporating strangely poetic computer-generated visuals to their songs, their visual identity is as strong as their sonic identity. Early in their career, their tracks varied from naive early Shinjuku electro hommages to melancholic 3D tear drop synth ballads tied together by an obsession for laserdisc and video games aesthetics.

The "GET IT?!" EP taylor-made for Sound Pellegrino is a whole different story. While the Kraftwerk and YMO influences are still palpable, this time the music is willingly functional and club-ready, they are not exploring the past but rather inventing a new sound for Crystal, giving life to their aesthetics in a club context, still motivated by pure feelings of digital romanticism, the megalopolis and the ever-changing world of technology.

"Get It?!" featuring yours truly is part latin freestyle part soundtrack for Pop'n Music" (one of those popular 'Bemani' Japanese musical video games that inspired Guitar Hero). The lyrics tell a naive tale of love and friendship between what seems to be man and machine, or more probably 2 robots with different language processors. If a rollerskating rink version of Dance Dance Revolution existed, "Get It" would be the theme song. The absolutely mind-blowing video (directed by Shinya from Crystal in actual 3D - glasses are included in the vinyl version of the EP) has me flirting with Siri and eating various fruits and sushi in space, regurgitating them before they transform into the members of Crystal. And we're all skateboarding in space. Keep your eyes peeled for this one.

"Telephonic" could be interpreted as the "turbo" version of "Get It", slightly more digital, based on ringtone samples, rhythmically intricate, alternating between action-packed dance parts and more atmospheric/dreamy cosmic gliding parts.

"Construction" is Crystal's wonderfully weird attempt at making a techno tool, resulting in a groovy, metallic, industrial slab of "Musique Concrète" dripping with funk and unexpectedly uplifting. The spectre of Bangalter and Roule records is not far either.

"Crystal Forest" closes the EP with a peaceful sonic oasis of romance and well-being, like a spa level in a Megadrive action game, a clearing in the middle of the mechanical forest. The sounds are as precise as clear water drops, the synths as soothing as an essential oil massage on an iPad-shaped bed.
