Le Carousel is Phil Kieran's latest LP, which is great, it was a pleasure to work with this track, and all the better because I decided I was going to do something weird with it! The lovely pads and vocals provided the backbone for my remix, and I just tried to accentuate these with a long ambient build.

The track would probably work better just with this ambient part and no more, but I decided to add on some sort of odd drop at the end, where it goes all hectic with lots of double timed randomised beats. To continue with the unexpected theme I went for another extended build to total distortion, climaxing in nothingness!

It's probably not the easiest track to fit into a set unless you just use the ambient part, but it's always nice to just let go and mess around with a track without worrying about how it might function outside of what you feel you want to do musically at the time.

Release date is 23rd September on PKR

I apologise for making a 13 minute track with only 3 different sounds!

It's a bit of a reaction to our constant information bombardment and instant gratification music - you just need to step back from everything for a while and let it wash over for this one to work.

The whole thing is hinged on a sequence of 4 notes playing at different rates forwards and in reverse using Alexander Randon's Fugue Machine. It's a simple pattern but it grabbed me and made me want to strip the track back to the minimum possible number of elements to focus on the pattern.

I think we pick up on the fact that there's an interesting pattern hiding in there in the simplicity. The fast riff that opens up is a classic Juno 6 sound too, which also made me want to put it out there unadulterated. I gave in eventually and added one percussive element and some extra chord layers, but you have to wait about 8 minutes for that.

It's certainly not for everyone, but I hope it works for you...it gets pretty intense too btw, but I guess you've had that before from me.

Thanks for giving some of your time for a listen!

Tralala

Concealed behind a stage name from one of his favorite mangas, Oro is a young 24-year-old artist who never ceases to surprise his listeners through a collection of sets all equally different from each other.
To him, a set is to keep a pleasant and harmonious continuity by having a very complete and unique library, but it is not all, according to him it is necessary to remain on the lookout for releases and constantly to seek new artists.
In search of what is best for several years now and armed with his exceptional memory, Oro has managed to conquer many lands, and his journey has only just begun. Equipped with a combo X1 and Z1 from Native Instruments at the moment, the composition of songs should not be long to see the day in order to follow the footsteps of some artists with a unique sensibility and creativity. Stephan Bodzin, Oliver Koletzki, Solomun or Boris Brejcha, N'to or Romulus, Oro no longer counts all his sources of inspiration.
On every occasion and with the help of pieces ingeniously found and assembled, he offers melodious sets, varied and unique in their kind, making everyone see eye to eye.
