"Pad and layers as the hues of the rainbow before the red of the sunset becomes complete darkness, but [everything] remains at the limit, between the intense and the twilight, between the utopian and the primitive, hanging in the incompatibility between the anxiety and the still".

Chicago - Street Player (Signore & Galli Re - Edit)

A collapse of any truth, absence of light, and spectroscopic industrial manoeuvres in the dark: this is Isolated Process Ep realized by Kwartz.
Isolated process is a robotic monotonic thought deep down the furthest abyss. Belling drums alongside drones and solid grey basslines appears on first Function and Second Function: two different points of view, two moments about the same hypnotic march. Milton
Bradley’s remix is a slower exploration of what remains alive underneath the space. Slow and cyclical beats hits back the mind once lost in the ocean.
Pure machine darkness.

Reclaim Your City 086 | Korova

PRE-ORDER: http://www.darkentriesrecords.com/store/dark-entries/psychic-tv-alien-be-in-remix-12-ep/

Dark Entries Editions is venturing into new waters with a remix EP of Psychic TV’s classic Acid House song “Alien Be-In”. Psychic TV was formed by Genesis P-Orridge and Peter Christopherson after the breakup of Throbbing Gristle in 1981. After various line up changes, the band shifted direction to dance oriented songs influenced by the Acid House scene in America. By 1988 experimental electronic musician Fred Giannelli, of Turning Shrines, joined the band and over the next 2 years started to record songs for “Toward The Infinite Beat”. The album was a mix of deep, multilayered tracks full of bright and hypnotic dance numbers, providing the soundtrack to the rave culture that sprung up in the UK in the 90s. 

“Alien Be-In” was written in early 1989 on an E-mu Emax Sampler and an Alesis MMT-8 sequencer.  Vocal samples were taken from a tape Germs drummer Don Bolles sent to Genesis. A didgeridoo rides throughout the song, heavily modulated by a Gristleizer creating a hypnotic effect. Near the end of the song the breakbeat slides out of time yet the band chose to leave this in because it sounded strange and fit the concept of the track. Genesis played a spaced out Echo Violin and the band used 360 degree panning rotation devices. For this reissue Fred Giannelli takes a stab at remixing the mono mix of the original sequence sourced from the Emax floppy discs. On the flip are two brand new mixes, the first from Los Angeles based producer, Silent Servant, who updates the classic with his modern brand of driving EBM techno.  The second remix is a team effort from Silent Servant and veteran producer John Tejada, that re-creates the original melody using a Roland TR-808 and TB-303, paying homage to early Chicago Acid House artists like Lil Louis and Robert Owens. 

All songs have been mastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The 12” is housed in a mind-alerting, metallic silver die-cut sleeve and a neon green label that pops through, featuring the psychic skull transformed into an alien cone head label all designed by Eloise Leigh. Each copy includes a 2-sided 11x11 square insert with black and white photo of the band from 1988 and liner notes by Fred Giannelli.

Attraction Part I - KOROVA

Donor - EM1 (Silent Servant Remix)

Artist: Terrence Dixon with Mike Huckaby, Silent Servant, DVS1 Remixes
Title: Minimalism Re:Vision
Cat #. THEMA033
Release: November 2012

We’ve made no secret of our love for Terrence Dixon here at THEMA. After his THEMA debut with “The Parkhurst”, a record that helped to reignite his career, we’ve seen the legendary figure move on to even bigger things, and we helped the cause even more just recently with his “The Return” EP as Population One on our Chronicle sublabel. His resurgence has reminded us what always drew us and many others to his work from the beginning, and it’s thus with immense pride that we announce Minimalism Re:Vision, featuring remixes of Terrence Dixon’s groundbreaking Minimalism Part 1 from 1995. As the final release on Claude Young’s influential but short-lived Utensil Records, the understated record is one of Dixon’s first few releases as well as a certified classic of early Detroit minimal techno. Revising it is a tough task to tackle and one we approached with great care; thus, we present three equally relevant, equally reverent mixes by today’s finest techno figures on a full EP. Mike Huckaby, Silent Servant, and DVS1 all stand shoulder-to-shoulder at the front line of contemporary dancefloor music, and we feel that presenting their versions alongside the original does justice and homage to its enduring legacy for THEMA’s Re:Vision Series.

Mike Huckaby is no stranger to Terrence Dixon; seeing as they come from the same city, work in the same area, and are of the same generation. We have little doubt Huckaby has the Utensil EP somewhere in his record collection actually, and his studied interpretation certainly shows such deep roots. It takes the threatening aspect of Terrence’s original into the background, but Huckaby replaces it with upfront, drum-machine fueled aggression and ruthlessly unleashes a proper Detroit beatdown underlain with woozy, loopy synthesizers. Working at a complete contrast but remaining equally true to the original’s mold, Silent Servant zeroes in on the heavy, haunting atmosphere and damaged electronics and underpins his remix with a dirty, repeating bassline of his own invention. It’s ominous and distinctly influenced by other aspects of Dixon’s work, but it also asserts itself as one of Silent Servant’s most arresting recent efforts. DVS1’s nimble interpretation juxtaposes seemingly endless percussion fills against dub chords that formed the backbone of Dixon’s 1995 track. There, they remained discrete and shadowy, but here the haze is drawn away as they interlock with the adroit drums. We can easily see DVS1 smashing this in one of his lightning-quick mixes, and afterwards we finish the record with Terrence Dixon’s (A2) original, where the contrasting aspects of the other mixes meld kaleidoscopically into something that stands easily alongside the most creative of today’s techno.

As a reunion for friends, an overview of today’s best talent, and a re-evaluation of past and present achievements, THEMA looks back to the rich past while still moving unstoppably into the future.
