SKIN004 - Marcus L - Kimchi Slap

SKIN005 - Valerie Ace - Glitzer Vs Hass (Jan 2022)

SKIN006 - Valerie Ace - Strass and Stress

—-

Returning to Intrepid Skin after her brilliant debut EP, and following on from a string of acclaimed releases since then, Berlin-based producer, DJ, and label owner Valerie Ace presents four new cuts of powerful hard dance and techno. Strass and Stress is out 1st March as both vinyl and digital.

With a background in organising DIY raves and a commitment to community-led efforts in electronic music, Valerie carefully fuses references from a range of genres into a singular, contemporary take on techno. Guided by an instinctive ear for experimental, groove-driven frameworks, her strain of dance music is hard-edged but mischievous, playful but heartfelt. 

Diving straight into the peak hours, opening track ‘Taking a Risk’ is a swirl of hard kicks, frantic alarms and distorted leads; a statement of intent for what is to follow. Hot on its heels is the aptly-titled ‘Slay’- a marching roller with double drops of acid, warped sonics and echoing glitches. Plunging into a hazier zone, ‘Anxious not Afraid’ takes an intoxicated spin on psytrance, building a vast acoustic space with equal parts tension and release. Closing off the EP, ‘How To Fit In’ jumps back onto the floor with an unrelenting spiral of industrial-leaning hard drum chaos.

Strass and Stress is an all gas no brakes package of four crucial cuts from a producer on top of her game.

Digital + Vinyl 12" EP

More info:

Kimchi Slap

Premiere: Marcus L ‘Hardcore Reality’

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Marcus L. The Seoul-based artist and resident of the city’s Faust club lands on SPFDJ’s Intrepid Skin imprint with Kimchi Slap, a wild four track EP that hits hard enough to be felt across the globe. After meeting each other in Seoul in 2018 the two went on to share bills in different continents and now Marcus is the latest addition to an already stellar lineup of releases on Intrepid Skin. Today we premiere the title track which is an outrageous dance floor destroyer about my favorite fermented cabbage dish which features vocals from rapper Kill.gone. The release contains two other originals plus a massive remix from Hadone. 

Kimchi Slap is out September 18th on vinyl + digital format. Pick yours up now on Bandcamp.

SPFDJ’s Intrepid Skin imprint returns for an outlandish and typically heavy-hitting fourth release, fresh from the somewhat outrageous underground of the current South Korean electronic music scene. Marcus L is resident at Faust in Seoul, and first met SPFDJ when she played the city in 2018. In the time since, the two have shared bills in both London and Mumbai, where Marcus’s distinct taste and technical dexterity became more than obvious to the Intrepid Skin founder, who dares to exclusively reveal that Marcus is “a really fun guy.”

This sense of playfulness is immediately apparent throughout ‘Kimchi Slap’, which takes inspiration from the beloved and fermented cabbage, reinterpreting this staple of Korean food culture as pure techno of the saltiest kind. So indebted to kimchi is Marcus’s vision, he even sourced a microscope in order to photograph it in scintillating close-up on the cover.

Those inspired by previous Intrepid Skin transmissions from the scene-defining trilogy of Nene H, Schacke and VTSS will find much more to love in this blistering introduction to Marcus L. Reflecting his sets, Kimchi Slap smashes ML’s love of industrial, trance and nineties techno classics into formidable rave paste.

Already a local rap legend and ‘irreplaceable character’ Kill.gone provides culinary verse and unfuckwithable attitude to the elasticated techno landscape of the title track. On ‘P For Phycho’, Marcus redeems his blatant disregard for correct spelling with a masterful slice of burst drums and quivering acid, beckoning all ravers down a rabbit hole of warehouse-friendly lunacy.

‘Hardcore Reality’ is just as instantaneous, a tunneling carnival ride of miltant bass and ecstatic atmosphere, while Parisian DJ and producer Hadone’s remix of the intimidating ‘Kimchi Slap’ transforms Marcus’s original dish into a dense, tense and surprisingly groovy kiss-off, positioning Kilgon as a trance-like God, ascending to head of the table on a twin wave of ecstasy and melancholy.
