He’s a one-man synth orchestra, that Debukas. Those beautiful layers of yearning vocals, the Detroit strings, the coruscating hi-hats and drums that speak of years at the altar of house and techno’s venerated gods. I Am Machinery is somewhat apt.

Debukas was born in 2011, though the seeds of it were sewn much earlier. Echoes of its influences go back to Gary Numan singles, teenage forays into the world of Junos and Casios, 808 State and early Warp, Transmat and Metroplex, Arthur Russell and Gino Soccio. It’s all there in the primordial Celtic soup that comprises Debukas.

John Clark was born somewhat earlier. You may or may not have heard about some of his previous exploits. He had a brief dalliance with pop infamy in Japan. There was a series of bands large and small and collaborations so brief John is still not sure they really happened.

I Am Machinery is one of the most complete electronic albums you’ll hear this year – or any other, for that matter. Those years spent toiling in bands has given him a mean ear for the killer hook, just as the hours spent in Rubadub Records in Glasgow provided him with the inspiration.

This is neither house music nor techno, though you can certainly dance to it. Debukas has taken the basic building blocks of those genres and somehow repurposed them to produce music that is vocal-based without featuring formal songs (it feels at times as though he’s sampled himself from some obscure found-sound album). When he hits his stride, you can almost imagine – in some far off, alternative universe, maybe – Debukas on Top Of The Pops performing, say, ‘Some Days’.

If you’ve been lucky enough to come across his EPs for 2020Vision, you will have heard and appreciated his unique style; it sounds like nothing else on the roster yet fits perfectly among it all. I Am Machinery is a step further; a step forward. The sound has received a slight polish though one that comes from confidence in a sure direction rather than songs with a needless sheen. And here’s confidence for you, some of the best material from the EPs has been ditched so the album has a flow, as if all of these songs were conceived to only live together communally on I Am Machinery, like brothers and sisters, or even prisoners (of soul).

On ‘Tape Symphony’, one of the newest songs, Debukas woos us with some white soul, edged with those glittery synths and an unrelenting bass figure. ‘Hold Back The Sea’, technically just a simple house groove, is imbued with his trademark multi-layered vocals which rends it startlingly and unintentionally similar to Frankie Goes To Hollywood – bizarrely, I know, but it just totally works.

I Am Machinery is that rare thing: a great electronic album. It’s where man meets machinery and they have some right old rumpy-pumpy in front of everyone. This is Debukas’s lovechild. Plug in, tune in, blast off.

I Love You (Yello)

Due March 2015

2014 saw Debukas receive critical acclaim thanks to his debut album, ‘I am Machinery’, on 2020Vision, and the subsequent remix album featuring a stellar lineup including Ripperton, JD Twitch and Tuff City Kids. The year also saw Debukas entertain crowds at Fabric, Moog Club and Sonar by Night. 2015 sees the ‘one-man synth orchestra’ return with an EP on his new Glasgow/Inverness based imprint, 2Sox.

With the Transparent Living EP, Debukas focuses his gaze on the dancefloor throughout. Imagine a late night Detroit taxi took a wrong turn and ended up in Glasgow. LMBA opens up with deep synth layers and a driving rhythm before letting it’s hooky off-kilter melody take hold. Sunning is all about the molten hot Jupiter 6 bassline and live hi-hats, with hits of string chords adding to the mutant mix of disco and early techno. Title track Transparent Living draws deeply on classic Atkins and Passarani, the soundtrack to many an intoxicated Glasgow sunrise.

Gnork rounds the EP off with a hypnotic rework in his unique space house style, heard recently on his widely praised material for Blind Jack’s Journey and Bokhari.

Hand stamped limited edition vinyl and digital formats. Distribution by Rubadub.

Transparent Living

Due November 2015. Hand stamped limited edition vinyl and digital formats. Distribution by Rubadub.

Since infiltrating dancefloors and airwaves with April’s 2SOX001 release, Debukas has been dreaming away in his ‘Shake Box’ and travelling to another world. The follow up to that debut 2Sox release is the Dream Travel EP from “the Mr. Fingers of the Highlands” (Brewster. Bill, 2015, Low Life).

Inspired by a holiday to the Scottish town on the Isle of Lewis, Carloway is a head nodding dreamy builder, with a killer bassline, leading into some classic piano chords. A sure fire dance floor stealer. Larks throws together rave stabs and a real doof kick but supplements this with a floaty, dream like, melody that whirls around the head forever.

Kick starting the flip side, Moons decides to chill the EP out. A warm, fuzzy, vintage Carl Craig style track with a contemporary feel. Take some time to drift away to another planet with this one. And last, but certainly not least, the title track Dream Travel delivers some sumptuous chord progressions and, in keeping with Debukas’ homage to Detroit, some fierce string action.

This release comes hot on the heels of the first 2Sox radio show on London’s legendary station Rinse FM. It will also be preceded by Debukas’ appearance on the Forward to the Past 3 compilation from Steve Bug’s Poker Flat label.

Gear: Roland MSQ-700 sync-ing TR-909 and MC-202 and sending MIDI to Jupiter 6. SH-101 bass notes triggered by 909. 202 thru WEM Copicat IC300. 909 thru Drawmer 1969. Jupiter thru JoeMeek VC2. Delay coming from crappy Zoom 1201 (I love 'em).

My House (Aaron-Carl)

Available exclusively on Bandcamp.

Left At The Lights is collection of tunes begun between 2010-2015 that for whatever reasons never got 'finished' or saw the light of day until now. While working on my new (!) album, I delved deep into the pool for some sleeping gems and found at least two volumes of niceness. These tunes capture a time period perfectly so I decided they should live together forever in sweet harmony. Enjoy!
