Ozel AB 001

PREMIERE: Ozel AB - Yahso

With a strong discography from the likes of Workshop, Third Ear and Lobster Theremin, Luke Palmer aka Ozel AB has been turning heads in the realms of leftfield house and techno since 2014. Now putting out the first offering on his own self-titled label in May we are delighted to premiere one of these four new tracks from the man himself. Series Parallel is 5mins and 25 seconds of raw bleep styled techno that brings you back to a 90's warehouse with a fitting subtle cut up vocal throughout and an addictive bassline to match. An essential listen coming into the long weekend. Ozel AB's "OZ001" drops early May.

Phonica Premiere: Ozel AB - Series Parallel [Ozel AB]

There was a flickering glow which dazzled and sparkled atop the water of the lake. The last of the summer sunlight was beaming down warm and hot on the open expanse as swimmers took deep breaths and swam in what would be the last of the season.

It was magical up here in the mountains, some called it a zen like paradise. He’d spent many months here, sat by the side of the lake, sketching and drawing the sights and things he saw before him.

Never had he imagined that it might all come to an end quite so quickly for soon he would be back home amongst the tall buildings and the concrete constabulary.
 
Ozel AB is a producer who has released an array of forward thinking electronic and club focussed EP’s on the likes of Workshop, Lobster Theremin and Third Ear.

Now he is launching his own record label, an opportunity for him to showcase recent material and explore new sounds. The first EP features four tracks, with this being the A1 taken from the record.

This is the story

Despite taking its name from a rather ludicrous imagined instrument, its been apparent from day dot that Lobster Theremin very much mean business. Since starting in the latter half of 2013 with Palms Trax's instantly beloved 'Equation' EP, Jimmy Asquith's label has churned out wax at a rate of knots. Whilst each release occupies its own stylistic niche, a 'Lobster Theremin sound' has gradually crystalised over time - with the label now recognised for its dusty interpolations of classic Midwestern American House and Techno.

Their latest release continues down this path, with Asquith once again unearthing a gem of an artist in the shape of London based newcomer, Ozel AB. His four track 'Crimes' EP starts with 'Sidestep To Your Left', a smokey cut that sultrily emerges from the mid-winter gloom. The press materials liken it to a, 'forum weirdo's reinterpretation of Moodymann's 'J.A.N' - which isn't far off the mark at all, given its ever so slightly off kilter Motor City throb. There's a slight distance about everything here too - from the detached insouciance of the sampled vocal, to the insistent yet softly lashing chords. With the EP's other three tracks continuing down the opaque trail blazed by the likes of Actress and his Werkdiscs cohorts, 'Crimes' is a collection that's deep, dark and imperfectly formed.

There is a lot of mystery surrounding the Amsterdam-based label Kalahari Oyster Cult. Run by Belgian DJ Colin Volvert, one would be hard pressed to find much of anything written about them on the internet. The only biographical information we were able to find was the quote, “An oyster of the old school who nobody can open.” This quote is taken from Milfred Newcomb’s 1989 analysis of one of Charles Dickens’ characters Mr. Tulkinghorn. Although we do not believe Dickens’ character is meant to represent the ethos of the label, oysters and the use of mysterious quotes certainly do. In fact, in each 5 of 6 releases Kalahar Oyster Cult has come out with in their inaugural year, a quote referencing oysters can be found in the notes section each of their discogs pages.

This theme will most likely continue in the label’s upcoming release of Rhythm Of Paradise’s 12’’ “Age of White.” From southern Italy, Rhythm Of Paradise’s Michele Lamacchia operates his own label Cosmic Rhythm and has been known to produce under aliases like Love Island, Mike Lee, Qubrique, and Soulvibe Inc. In his latest release, Michele has put together a proper selection of retro-fitted, extraterrestrial chunes that consist of 3 versions of the title track and a remix by his label mate Cosmic Garden.

While listening to the original, one can’t help but be reminded by other producers such as Lone who have made a living off this sort of sound. By utilizing an assortment oldschool drum machines, lush Detroit synths, and majestic chimes, Rhythm Of Paradise crafts a mood that is both nostalgic but refreshingly unfamiliar; as if one were floating through intergalactic space, gazing upon unknown lands while being accompanied by a recognizable soundtrack. You know, sorta like Guardians of the Galaxy but instead of music from the 60s and 70s, Quill's walkman is playing 90s house.

For all you Star-Lords that want to take this battleship for a ride on the dancefloor, you can pre-order “Age of White” by clicking on this link right here.

@ozelab “Science of Sleep" is founded upon a low-fidelity hybrid of techno propulsion and wavering 2-step swing – as Ozel’s synthesizers resonate wildly, quantised static and mournful vocal samples echo around your headphones, resulting in something beautifully strange.

A major thank you goes to all the artists involved for their kind gifts, the city of Brussels for their kind support and everyone else who makes this project possible.

http://c12space.com

C12 is a multidisciplinary nightclub and platform run by the Deep in House collective, located in the heart of Brussels. It's a safe place where freedom, diversity, creativity and alternative culture are protected from the restrictive and normative outside world. The project was launched in February 2018 and includes concerts, art installations, lives, club nights and exhibitions.

The Corona crisis is keeping our doors closed and dancefloor empty for several weeks now, with no hopes yet on new line-ups and crowds of enthusiastic dancers. But this unprecedented situation isn’t holding us still. Continuing to support our local Brussels and Belgian electronic music scene, C12 is proud to announce its own label with 10 music compilations dubbed Social Distancing. All artists involved are Belgian or strongly connected to the Brussels scene. Confirmed are Le Motel, Stellar OM Source, A.Brehme, Front De Cadeaux, Davy, OCB Casa Voyager, Cabasa, Techno Thriller, Orphan Swords, Different Fountains, Bear Bones Lay Low, Gols, Hadone, ... and our residents Session 4000, Kafim & Chris Ferreira. Compilations will also be curated by female artists promoting platform ‘Psst Mlle’ and queer culture collective ‘Benediction’.

Each edition consists of a collection of several tracks and will be released every two weeks, leading to a total of approximately fifty tracks. All music will be available to add on your favorite streaming service Soundcloud, Youtube, Spotify (coming soon) and Bandcamp. In addition for each track we offer a limited amount of 500 free downloads through our Bandcamp page, where donations are also enabled for those who wish to support us and the artists involved.
