The main element on “Carthago” is the Moog. It was a new approach, influenced by the new kind of sound that was slowly taking over. Minimal was on its way to dominate the dance scene in the coming years, but I didn’t consider myself minimal. The new sound, focus on particular machines for main elements of the tracks. That approach felt somehow German and old school, and the result had to be released on an old school German label.  Thank you Sven and the team!

Mathame are back with their seconds release on Souvenir. After their iconographic EP „Evangea“ the brother’s brand new work „Betsaida“ continues to reflect on religious themes and mystical subjects. Following their unique approach of a sonic expedition on iconography and spiritualism, Matteo and Amadeo – Mathame – are reaching out for the darker corners of House Music. 

Starting of „Discorso Della Montagna“ - The Sermon On The Mount – opens up a spherical field of hypnotic echoes reverberating through a seemingly endless space. But before we get lost in pure sound the liberating kick drum sets in and leads us back on the righteous path, which, in Mathames case, of course is the dance floor. Mathame know how to play the old game of tension and release and their dramatic use of breaks gives the track a specific structure as it serves as an independent musical element. 

CYRK, a collaborative consisting of the two berlin-based producers Sierra Sam and Pascal Hetzel provide an eclectic remix which pushes „Discorso Della Montagna“ into a rougher technoish direction. The pair, who has been touring the planet as a live act and DJ duo for some time, never fails to apply the musical knowledge and expertise they have gathered over the years to the remix, leaving a Detroit Techno mark with a slight shade of love for raw electro tunes.

The second track „Betsaida“, named after the biblical town in which Jesus Christ performed the miracle of giving a blind man back his eyesight, ties the stylistic bond back to the more melody-based „Evangea“, yet a growing affection for deep filter effects and more minimalistic Tech-House is clearly audible. A playful melody twinkles from the spherical sound carpet, just to be alienated and developed further into a slightly different element seconds later. Mathame produce their tracks on a self-built modular synthesizer called AERIAL which explains their child-like enthusiasm when it comes to experimenting with sound and musical components. „Betsaida“ seems to be constantly moving and in a continuous flow. It never takes a moment to rest but washes over the swaying crowd like an ever evolving and developing wave of pearly water.

Leipzig-based producer, DJ and label co-owner of Kann Records map.ache demonstrates his sensible way of intelligently reducing the complexity of „Betsaida“. His remix is centred around just a handful of thoughtfully chosen, recurring melodic elements that effectfully present the track in a more cheerful, instantly light-hearted version. The spherical synth-lines and sparkling melody is perfectly crafted for the dance floor and gets stuck in your head when leaving the party with a deeply satisfied, after-hourly glow.

SOUVENIR 075 - MATHAME - BETSAIDA ep

After reaching critical acclaim on their third studio album, Colour Theory, the Polish duo Catz 'N Dogz has rounded up an intimidating list of remixers to go to town on their body of bits. Recognized for mining the middle ground between house and disco, Jay Shepheard sets his sights on the languid groover, “Stay, and takes it up a notch. Lending the hushed vocals a nice bed of sauntering basslines and gauzy chord stabs to roll around in, his remix is an obvious highlight here.

Creative partnership Audiofly are the next to release on Crosstown Rebels with the show stopping ‘In The (Last) Moment’ featuring the angelic voice of Georgia Lewis. The release comes complete with a steadfast remix from Germany’s Robag Wruhme.

‘In the (Last) Moment’ sets the foundation with broken chuggy beats as intricate layers and grumbling pads unfold beneath the beautiful sounds of Georgia’s voice. Audiofly explain that, "sometimes it’s nice to not have to write the usual peak time bomb, with this one we followed our hearts and the vibe of young vocalist Georgia Lewis and what emerged was a sunrise moment."

With 13 years behind them Anthony Middleton and Luca Saporito AKA Audiofly have established a creative empire, which includes two record labels and their Flying Circus global party brand, which celebrated its 10th anniversary earlier this year with a world tour. Working harder than ever, a second artist album is in the works following on from 2011 long-player ‘Follow My Liebe’.

Industry veteran Robag Wruhme has more recently had releases on the likes of Kompakt and Pampa Records. Here he makes an imprint on Crosstown Rebels with this epic remix that fuses elated synths and industrial elements over solid rolling percussion.

DJ Koze doesn't aim for technical perfection for its own sake, but rather to serve the purpose of giving birth to great music. On his debut 'Rue Burnout EP' from his own Pampa label, he plays with finesse and sophistication, and implicitly understands the importance of subtlety, leading from dreamy and restrained parts to a noisy frenzy at the end. 'Blume der Nacht' starts with a looped piano solo from Arabian dodecaphony, interwoven with bangs of violine bows, piercing high-pitched strings, almost shrieking glissandi, deep angel chants and obsessive sharp rhythms. The 37 year old constantly horny wunderkind producer has made a habit of creatively foiling expectations, and works also under the pseudonyms Adolf Noise, Swahimi and recently Madima Lokkah to redefine the boundaries of electronic music. This daring concept works perfectly in the title track 'Rue Burnout' - it is very rare that you find house music this excitingly light-fooded and precisely transparent. The musician cuts the pigtail off the term 'Kackmusik' for good, and demonstrates how sounds are capable of creating the most delicate musical interplay.
Amen.
DJ Koze, Germany, April 2010.
