The Crystal Ark return with a double pack 12” containing some wildly engaging, stripped-down mixes of 4 tracks from their 2012 debut album on DFA. Contains brand new extended versions of the songs Rain, Paradise, Ascension, and We Came To.

The band has the following to say about these remixes:

“Mixing The Crystal Ark album was a deep process. Viva Ruiz and I spent a month in the studio with Matt Thornley and as we mixed the tracks we discovered that certain parts of them sounded so wonderful and driving when stripped down that we did some extra mixes to highlight this aspect. It felt connected to the "Dub" or "Techno" mixes you'd find on late 80's - mid 90's dance 12"s, which were often much more pounding than the original versions of the tracks, more geared to the dance floor than the radio.”
-Gavin Russom, The Crystal Ark

"We wanted to create some more DJ friendly versions of some of the songs, so we approached it like we would a traditional remix, with the difference of doing most of the moves live on analog gear. Kind of old school DUB style. This way it captured more energy and spontaneity than if we had planned every move before hand. "
-Matt Thornley, The Crystal Ark

“At the end of the very intense process of mixing the tracks for the record, Gavin, Matt and I were excited to approach these tracks with an entirely different perspective. In my mind, I saw these tracks going out to the people holding down the dance floor, those people who are the VIPS at any function, so for me essentially these dubs are dedicated to the dancers.”
-Viva Ruiz, The Crystal Ark

Crackboy returns to I’m a Cliché for a second EP with the label. Crackboy, the mysterious and anynomous beat junkie, so skilled at blending timeless hyper dirty sounds, for the first time has made room for original vocals. He presents three new killer tracks.

1. First track “Apes” is a sexy house song made for taking one’s shirt off on the dancefloor. Vocals are sung by a previous member of the band Haussmann, Claude Violante, now colabrorating with Crackboy for her solo projects.

2. On the second “User”, a sampled ghettoish speech with aggressive claps and ecstatic chords leads to climax halfway through. “The fucking monkeys are coming”, says the guy. Picture them on the dancefloor, now.

3. The closing track “Kiddo” is all about muscled acid and soundsystems being given a rough time.

Pirmas blynas

Tai va, prieš 3 metus pradėjau domėtis grojimu. Viskas prasidėjo nuo appso išmaniajame ir Shazamo RĄŽĖ klube. Tada pirmi grojimai draugams gimtadieniuose ar naujametiniuose žiburėliuose su skolintu pultu. Mainly, grojau tai, kas buvo populiariausia ir tikdavo visiems. Bendraminčių aplinkoje nebuvo, tuo viskas ir apsiribojo. Tačiau juos sutikau vasara. Jų motyvuotas pradėjau diginti atlikėjus, labelus. Opium club dėka gyvai išgirdau užsienio ir vietinius favoritus, stebėjau jų performancus. Galvojau, atėjo laikas imtis veiksmų, nes tai veža. Taigi, dalinuosi savo pirmu mano nuomone "užbrandintu" mixu. Klampus reikalas, bet šokdina. Ai, ir ka reiškia Arzt, tai vokiškai daktaras. Galvojau, kodėl pavardės nepavertus į stage name. Gero klausymo!
