Exclusive: Brent - Liquid Gold

London-based event-series Gradient launches its label and kicks off the new era with a four-tracker from Brent, which goes by the name of Digital Karma. The Liverpudlian therefore delivers four club-ready tracks weaving himself skillfully through various electronic music sub-genres and styles. 

The EP opens with the title track, a homage to 80s synth-sounds which are combined with an Edith Piaf cameo generating a flamboyant French vibe and guaranteeing the EP an exquisite start. 

Up next is the most housey take on the EP, namely Don’t Call The Dr. The lush 4/4 bassline in addition to the robotic vocals as well as the inclusion of rolling triplets in the track’s lows and the overall rather minimalistic approach turn the track to a magic bullet for the floors.

The B-side starts with Liquid Gold, probably the slower and more melodic version of the A2. Liquid Gold comes in with super sweet sung vocals, a lower BPM as the previous tracks and spaced out elements in reference to the EPs title Digital Karma, as latter always strikes back and here it hits audience hard.

Ultimately there’s (S.O.M.) or the most techy track of the EP. With a stamping yet groovey bassline, its vocoder-led ode to Liverpool and a memorable chord-sequence (S.O.M.) offers another musical facet of Brent, who manages to take his listeners all the way through different (sub)genres yet remains true to his style.

Brent's Digital Karma EP will be out on Gradient.

Bomb #1 in the boutique of bombs. Unfortunately Neuton records went bankrupt after this release (hey, it sold out - so it wasn't my fault! ;-)) so there hasn't been any follow-up release in any similar vein. If you managed to grab one of the 3000 vinyls, hold on to it! You can still get a reprint on Hadshot Haheizar's label compilation. See www.italectro.de for details.

Eliaz is on his second EP ever and for 3n0 we chose three tracks, two of recent production and an older one.
Eliaz started making Lizergid in 2013, then it was forgotten and later finished in 2015. This was in his pre-hardware period, so the track was made using only Ableton and a midi keyboard. The other 2 tracks are brand new and differ in style a little bit because of this 4 year gap, but still have that Eliaz drum & acid drive. They were made mostly on hardware equipment such drum machines Roland TR8 and Korg ER-1, synths Minilogue, Minitaur, MAM MB33 Retro and Korg Volca FM.

Like everyone here, I've been deejaying and producing since teenage days. Music is a question of taste, but you can expect some quality things here productionwise - normalized in frequency spectrum and loudness, ready for DJ use.

My tracks are uploaded as hi-fi variable bitrate MP3s. VBR is roughly equivalent to 256 bps. 320 is pointless, as a 44.1kHz/16bit file will mathematically never use more than 256. Funny how everyone on soundcloud seems to think 320 is good. In any case, MP3 will always mean a certain amount of loss, so the only way to avoid that is to use WAV/AIFF/FLAC or RAR. In professional productions you should never employ MP3, no matter how high the bitrate.
