What is it about dub techno that makes us love it every time we hear those syncopated, heavily reverberated and delayed sounds? Dub makes it easy to get lost in one's own thoughts; to explore the cavernous recesses of one's mind; to get lost and to let go.  And thus most dub productions err on the side of dark echo-y sounds devoid of melody, light and levity.  Well, Fluxion's Slide, released on one of the premier dub labels, Echochord, breaks that mold by anchoring the track in dub but infusing it with melodic elements, and a sense of fun and groove.  A groovy dub? or a dubby groove? Either way, the track makes it easy to get lost inside oneself, but you'll more likely find yourself tapping your foot than chasing the echo.

Echocord - 20 Years

PREMIERE: Fluxion - Slide [Echochord]

Released October 17, 2022

written and composed by @alexanderarpeggio & @nixxon
Bassgitarre “Künefe”: Dennis Schulze
Stimme und Text “Op beni Künefe”: Hilal Can
Synthesizer Bass “Op Beni Künefe”: Elizaveta Petcheniouk

Eine Welt presents Künefe as the second instalment in their limited 12inch series. 
A two tracker too hot to lick, spiced up with sweet Turkish herbs. A delicate oriental pearl, that’s until now only served in the finest Turkish cuisine. Produced and written by label owner Alexander Arpeggio and Danish artist Nixxon. 

The title track is a romantic homage to the sweet Turkish dish Künefe. Wrapped in 80s production NDW style, flavoured with analog synth melodies and erotic schlagerish German male vocals. Hotter than melted cheese this track will set any dance floor on fire.

The flip opens with a sensual vibe. Op beni Künefe is an anthemic, ferocious and hard rocking slow jam. Hip shaking bass line and flirty lyrics by Istanbul artist Hilal Can.
For those afraid of vocals, the record ends with an instrumental version of the title track.

Alexander Arpeggio & Nixxon - Künefe (Vocal Version)

If you missed the original Secret Circuit album ("Green Mirror" 2xLP) which came out last year, it's been lauded as Eddie Ruscha's finest work and has been one of the label's best sellers (and some even saying the label's "best release").

To mark a year since its release 4 remixers were asked to re-interpret tracks from the album. As one would expect with original source material that ranges from minimal and space-y tech to properly drifting ambience, the pool of remixers (and the resultant remixes) are equally diverse. First up is Glasgow-based tropical traveller Kusht who turns the album's opening track "Undenying" into a trippy slo-mo chugfest. This is followed by Khidja's Andrei Rusu who takes on "Light On The Sand" which comes out transformed into a polyrhythmic Steve Reich-ian epic of stuttering synths and tuned percussion. The Froid Dub remix is as dubby and lo-fi as you'd expect from these two French dub-wave geniuses...and closing up is veteran Switzerland-based experimentalist Michal Turtle whose version takes things in a strange but familiarly emotive direction.

Green Mirror Remixes

PREMIERE⚡️Secret Circuit - Galleon In The Clouds (Froid Dub Rmx) [Invisible Inc.]

Emerging from the most rugged corners of California, the multifaceted Sordid Sound System delivers a musical gem in mini-album format for our 60th release. 'The Raven' features six exquisite original tracks and a lysergic remix with an infectious groove by the well known Thomas Von Party.

A shadowed symphony, whispers to the night. Music, like feathers on the wind, stirs the heart's deepest echoes. In the interplay of darkness and sound, we find the beauty of sorrow's dance. Both the raven and the music are timeless weavers of the soul's hidden tales.

There's a lot of not so good but interesting records out there that need to be revisited.

To see the brilliant moments on them and make something good about it is kind of a science. We invite you once again to get into our edit universe, with a selection of stuff we found in Madrid's record stores, ripped with love, and edited to fit into our nowadays ears.

Hope you enjoy listening.
