Liar - Optimix™ Series

Liar - Official Remixes

Veteran of many scenes, Liar returns from a prolonged hiatus to dip his toes in TonTon's rising wave. His contribution ranges from Balearic breakbeat workouts & intimate dub siestas, to impish takes on world music & electrofunk. Liar's knack for cultural & stylistic interbreeding pervades throughout — you will hear Paisley Park homages, falsetto crooning, comical cuicas, city pop ornaments, 70s radiophonic psychedelia & Final Fantasy samples alike, flamboyantly converging into an artifact of stubborn hope, love & peace.

An unexpected, but inevitable collaboration between yours truly and brother in-arms Mutual Friend, the track began its life as a nothing more than a 4 bar loop – an upbeat snare punctuating an otherwise beatless environment of foggy, gray, forlorn, distant, yet oddly musical noise. Every other bar, a jackhammer barrage of sub kicks would invade the otherwise overcast tableau with flickering darkness. We sat on this loop for a minute, knowing it was – for lack of a better term – ‘the future’ (or at least a bleak variant that we subjectively default to), but unsure of how to proceed. It wasn’t until the ripped-cone reese, and its incessant three-to-four notes of non-resolving doom, that the track, as it is today, began to emerge. The remainder pretty much wrote itself: the ‘action news’-style arp, the ersatz duduk respite, the reductionist electro beat. The finished product slyly interpolates and assimilates facets of everything we love – from Drexciyan electro to circa ‘94 jungle and hardcore; from the heyday dungeon sound to contemporary vitreous grime; from the laidback infra-grooves of midskool dub to the pneumatic urgency of 2012-2016 club music. Or maybe it’s just a particularly heavy, particularly murky little tune that we’re bigging up too much. Truth is, all of these layers to it – they’re only visible in retrospect. As we were making the tune, all we did was bang our heads and put entirely too much volume through my poor Adams. Because it felt (and still feels) like the one where we neatly summarized all that Liar, Mutual Friend, and Tessier-Ashpool are about, in just under four-and-a-half minutes. “My job is to find heat, and then make it hotter. That’s the role of the DJ.” the sample goes. This is a vital point to be made, in these days of ‘playing-to-the-crowd’ complacency. “Sidewinder”, like the AIM-9 air-to-air infrared homing missile. “Sidewinder”, like the nocturnal, venomous, desert-dwelling rattlesnake that undulates akin to a sine wave in order to ascend dunes. There’s an aural counterpart for each vertebra of the conceptual backbone. And every bit of the concept is entirely deferential to the functional structure. No bells, no whistles. No fat, no flab. Just lean muscle. A ratio of 1:1. Exactly how we like it.

There is a humanitarian crisis at the Polish-Belarusian border. Since early August hundreds of people seeking international protection, coming from the Middle East, South Asia, and northern and middle Africa are crossing the external European Union border. Polish border troops are facilitating a process which is both nationally and internationally recognized as illegal, the so-called pushbacks. This brutal practice pushes the refugees from Polish territory back under the gunpoint of Belarusian border patrol who then use the same tactic and push the people back onto the Polish side. Consequently, the exhausted migrants are repeatedly chased away from one side to the other. Polish border patrol keeps ignoring the refugees’ repeated declarations telling them that they want to seek international protection in Poland. It breaches the law, according to which the border patrol should accept the application for protection and start adequate procedures and not keep these people outdoors for weeks. The temperatures in Eastern Poland are dropping day by day, which will cause more deaths by hypothermia, starvation, and exhaustion. On 19th September Polish border troops found the bodies of three people who had died of hypothermia. On the same day, the Belarusian authorities informed about the death of a woman who died in the company of her three children. On 24 September Polish authorities informed about another death, of a man from Iraq.

Polish organizations supporting foreigners have been involved in aiding the people on the border from the very beginning of the current crisis. They were communicating with them over loudspeakers while the border troops were not allowing for any humanitarian or medical aid to reach the refugees, denying them even food or freshwater. On 3 September the Polish government decided to implement a state of emergency in the cross-border areas, which has not been done since 1981 when martial law was introduced in Poland. What it means in practice is a drastic clampdown on the aid organizations and their access to the cross-border areas as well as fewer journalists who could document the situation on-site. The people on the border have been left without any help from the outside. No one controls the actions of the authorities anymore.

The situation at the Polish border breaks our hearts. We strongly disagree with the racist politics of the Polish government which leads to the deaths of innocent people, who are seeking refuge and a chance for a better life in the European Union. As Oramics, we want to support Fundacja Ocalenie (Rescue Foundation) who has been helping the migrants on the front line since day one and they facilitate easier access to a new life in an unknown country.

We have collected music from Polish and international artists and all the proceeds from the sales of the tracks will be given to Rescue Foundation.

Active Child - Subtle Feat. Mikky Ekko (Liar Remix)

Jesse Somfay's debut output as Borealis has been the artistic backbone of our label's birth 3 years ago while his sophomore album released last month is a good indicator of our eclectic expansion and overall shift in sound. While Voidness has generated more than 50 remixes (of which 38 saw a release this summer), Glittervoice only brought a handful of reworks to life. 

Enjoy Liar's take on standout tracks Nightlong Language and Lover and expect more amazing freebies and special previews in this festive season :)

TR/ST - Lost Souls/Eelings (Liar Relapse)

Tessier-Ashpool has quickly become one of our favorite labels thanks to a concise and fresh aesthetic that melds techno with bass music in a maelstrom that's at once minimalist and heavy. Label head Liar's remix of "Adapt" is a perfect example of what the label are all about, and if you're into this, take a dive into their catalogue.

"Liar’s Optimix™ is a total deconstruction, and subsequent reconstruction, of “Oazis” assets into a sprawling oriental epic, commencing as a retrofuturist space opera before segueing into a wholly unhinged xenogrime assault (populated with blink-and-you’ll-miss-them nods to our favorite moments in 2014 electronic music). Inspired by Le Dom’s title choice, Liar envisions a surrealist, poignant tableau – augmented Bedouin, astride bionic camels, HF-scimitars in hand, dying in battle to protect the black oasis of their petrostate."

Resident Advisor: "Liar's excellent "Optimix" polishes "Perfection" and builds on its technological theme, adding bleepy computer noises and an extra robotic sheen to the vocal samples. He nearly beats Vladau at his own game."

Boomkat: "Label boss bot, Liar chimes in with a killer Optimix of 'Perfection' pumped with dynamic detail for the club."

For my Optimix™, I opted to incorporate elements of (and nods to) all the tracks on the EP, in what is otherwise a primarily original composition, meant to complement Raul’s concept. Full of hydraulic concretism, sample-&-hold splurging, vitreous sound-design, cheeky easter eggs, horizontal maximalism, vertical sparseness, and unclassifiable, demolishing rhythmics, it’s everything you might have come to expect from a Tessier-Ashpool Optimix™ (if you’ve been following us closely and have also been reading these).

For my Optimix™, I opted to take the recessive rave traits the original’s musical DNA and make them dominant. Breakbeat hardcore, armor-piercing metallic piano riffs, massive undulating reeses and yardie chants were the order of the day. Or, as Alan put it, “this is some hardcore rave excellence”.

Premiere: Liar & Mutual Friend - Sidewinder

On the remix tip, the one and only Kamikaze Space Programme coaxes sound into steel and concrete, as he reshapes the original into a frenetic, incessant electro roller with ample, DJ-friendly structure and frequent nods to techstep and neurofunk. Most notably, KSP subverts the original’s reese’s utility as mere textural and melodic backdrop – here, it takes center stage, carrying most of the bass weight, and morphing across the spectra in ways that are so novel they seem almost peerless. Indeed, as it seamlessly moves through warping metal, chthonic rumbling, bursts of white noise and everything in between, it all but unearths the brutalist underpinnings of “Sidewinder”.

Remembering all those little things... all of a sudden, my heart sings.
