The first collaborative release between @RomanFluegel and @DanielAvery arrives on Live at Robert Johnson, under the guise of ‘Noun’. 

Initially recorded some years ago across just two days at Flügel’s former Frankfurt studio, both tracks represent a meeting point between the sensibilities of two of the best-loved producers in contemporary electronic music. Patient, even minimal psychedelia shares space with the driving club music that defines both Avery and Flügel’s individual DJ sets, as well as a number of occasional back-to-back performances, where the music of Noun has since been reliably reached-for and re-contextualised ever since.

Indeed, it speaks for the confidence and craft in this debut collaboration that Noun begins with ‘Meeting of the minds’, a textural delight that finds the Anglo-Germanic pair at their unremittingly trippiest. An analogue, unwavering transmission, as if pirated from Avery’s celebrated frequencies, is wrapped around minimal drum percussion, guaranteed to equally appeal to fans of the more experimental, reduced moments in Flügel’s back catalogue. Tense as the mood may seem, in these offbeat sonic corners, lay pockets of intrigue and moments of bliss.

On ‘Team Silent’, the impact is more immediate. As the seams between individual influences melt away, Flügel and Avery roll out something tougher and more direct; a blossoming, somewhat dystopian drive-by-night of softly soaring synths, ecstatic feedback and tough drums. Somehow both understated and anthemic, this is a true late night jam courtesy of two masters of club culture. Years later, and what a difference two days makes.

DAVE SCOTT (David La Maestra): it is called "a goblin". DJ since 1989, blends his artistic journey between various contaminations, including performances by vocalist and radio speaker. The turn comes in 2003, when he begins to approach the discography through the "The PhunKaDelix" project together with Joe Addicted (Giuseppe Acunzo, sound engineer and DJ). The buzz ride is in 2008, when Nick Morris himself "enlisted" with himself. There are a number of projects that see him as a composer: QLab, Inner Blue, Nick Morris & Dave Scott, TML (with Daniele Tignino), and others. His battle horse is compositive experimentation, creative trick, ... work done always speaks to him even only through a vocal or a sample. Lovers of oldschool sound, his culture ranges from all that jazz and disco to experimental, to electronic music, to a more "raw" sound of German garage productions (Max Graef, IMYRMind, Glenn Astro). His references are the Kraftwerk, Marshall Jefferson, and Jan Michelle Jarre.

As the name states Live at Robert Johnson is the associated label of the respected venue in Offenbach and incorporates what the club stands for. The imprint has been establishing a solid ground for the new Frankfurt sound since 2009. By featuring internationally acclaimed artists LARJ has been providing DJs and audiences with essential tunes in an extensive range of high-quality house music. Laid-back dance-floor awareness with a sense for particularity in sound is what might describe best most of the releases and artists.
