Lost In Ether | P R E M I E R E | Discrete Circuit - Standard Error (Samuel Kerridge Remix) [Astray]

taken from: Discrete Circuit - ERROR EP [Astray Records] 

The Berlin native, Discrete Circuit (Astray/Mistress/Delsin), has been on the road for most of 2019 but managed to fire this new EP off to the pressing plant before taking himself and the Astray vibe to more exotic locations. His hypnotic groove and drum machine physicality are back with a vengeance on this 4 tracker. The original on the A side — also featuring a collab with Blind Observatory — and an open invitation to reinterpret “Standard Error” on the flip. One ethereal mix from Samuel Kerridge and the other again from label homeboy H4L. Heavy, deep, experimental combinations.

 

The A side lifts off with that addictive 909 pulse. Call and response. Kick versus open hi-hat. Worming its way in, the synth mesmerises, slightly off-kilter, deviating. No cadence, no end. “Standard Error” is stripped down machine groove with alien code skittering inside the mind. No frills. The AA, with Blind Observatory and “Colabs”, delves into musing and reflective territory. A virtual garden of thought and the interaction of careful collaboration.

Samuel Kerridge takes his interpretation of the title track into heady heights on the start of the flipside. This remix of “Standard Error” is not only immersive and experimental in nature, but opens new spaces in some kind of post-techno realm — virtual, interactive. Biology and technology in some kind of beat skirmish on the edge of space. Or maybe we’re just tripping. The H4L remix might even be more out there still. No rock, no anchor, just broken industrial jazz at the bottom of the ocean. The digital bonus, “Disordered State”, is more late night circuitry chug.

Cescmai o Jesús García es un DJ amateur de Ciudad Real, que desde muy pequeño estuvo relacionado con la música electrónica y el mundo DJ, pero que no empezó a pinchar hasta 2011, con la Pioneer DDJ-Ergo V y el Traktor F1, de forma totalmente autodidacta, a base de ver muchos videos en YouTube, escuchar mucha música, y de leer cosas relacionadas y tutoriales.
Su estilo principalmente es techno y techno-house, aunque también le encantan otros como el minimal y el trance.
Quedándole todavía mucho por aprender, espera vuestros consejos o recomendaciones y criticas constructivas para ir mejorando y no caer en los mismos errores en sus sesiones.

"Ether, or æther, was the mysterious substance once thought to suffuse the universe and be the medium that propagated light (and radio waves once they were discovered). Before that, it was the material that suffused the realm of the Gods. So, to say that something is in the ether means that it is something being communicated from place to place; it has no precise location, just as a radio broadcast can be heard from many different places. "

Discrete Circuit has made a significant impact in Berlin's electronic music scene as a promoter, producer, DJ, and label owner. With releases on labels such as DVS1's Mistress Recordings, Delsin, and Darko Esser's Wolfskuil, he established his own imprint ASTRAY, to showcase and explore his techno sound. Shaped by the creative vibrancy of Berlin, the soul of Detroit, and UK's dark aesthetics, he draws inspiration to keep forging his sonic identity.

A "New, powerful take on classic Detroit techno" is how Clone Records described his debut EP Tiger Snake on Ripperton’s label Perspectiv. That was back in 2008 –  already a decade after playing constantly as a live act and DJ in Australia. Drawing on the original sounds from Detroit and Chicago, he forged his own way to present house and techno music downunder. Vance cut his teeth playing with legendary figures of electronic music and it continues to rub off to this day in his adopted home of Berlin. Current projects like “Away Soundsystem” are testament to that.
Career highlights include being invited by Derrick May to collaborate on a remix project for a movie in Carl Craig’s Detroit studio. His collaboration with Discrete Circuit in Berlin on own imprint Away Music was remixed by Joe Claussell and Mr. Ties. (Dixon a big fan of Joe’s dub). 
Bandcamp listed them as one of the labels keeping Berlin Techno fresh and described it as music that “ brims over with rugged machine grooves and serious soul.” The same could be said of Vance’s musical aesthetic as a DJ and live act. He regularly throws down a mixed bag 4+ hour journey at their Berlin parties with guests like Moodymann, Omar S and Move D. His latest project H4L on new sister imprint “Astray” is described by Hardwax as “stomping, direct,
pure, flawless Techno.” Other collaborators and remixers have included Aril Brikha (Art of Vengeance), Kirk Degiorgio (Haul), Etienne Jaumet (Versatile) and his music has appeared on compilations from Carl Cox (Global Underground) and Argy.
