Layo & Bushwacka   Summer Gone

This and That return for their second release with a four track, vinyl release from Davide Squillace and Philip Bader. Wild Things finds the pair settling into the groove with a brace of deep and hypnotic cuts that combine an underground club aesthetic with an intoxicating, druggy funk. Remixes of each track come from Italian Carola Pisaturo and Fuse resident Enzo Siragusa.

‘Wild Things’ mixes subtle melodies, grumbling bass and rolling beats to create a sinister yet energetic slab of tech-house. A powerful bottom end provides the backbone as curious FX and sparse vocals supply the hook. The effortless groove interplays perfectly with the intense atmosphere that burns and smokes below. Davide and Philip team up with American vocalist Big Bully for a bouncy, house strut on ‘Good Luck on the Romance Thing.’ Full of character, the track moves with attitude as punchy beats drive the melodic bassline on. Big Bully’s seductive vocals inject even more personality, making this a truly inimitable tune. The digital package will also include bonus track ‘So Close So Far’ which throws jazzier sounds in amongst churning bass and crisp drums.

Carola Pisaturo delivers the remix of ‘Wild Things’ adding real warmth to the original track without losing any of its passion. Her idiosyncratic fluid grooves roll beneath wonderfully quirky synth work to provide the kind of flair that has become synonymous with Pisaturo’s work.  ‘Good Luck on the Romance Thing’ gets reworked by Enzo Siragusa, founder and resident of Fuse. The Londoner turns in a dancefloor minded remix that twists the vocals and packs more pump into the 4/4s before building tension with escalating synths.

The artwork for the release this time around is provided by the impassioned Napolitan artist Lorenzo Scotto Di Luzio.  Now living in Berlin, Lorenzo has worked on wide range of media including sculpture, installation, photography, animation, music and video, building himself a reputation as one of Europe’s most interesting contemporary artists. Here, he delivers a special drawing for This and That. Director Simona Lianza has also provided this video for the release, presenting the art of ‘doing candies.’ https://vimeo.com/47262970

Snilloc - Minibar (AFFKT Remix) [Wow! Recordings] snippet

Martin Buttrich is famously as fluent behind a mixing console as in front of a virtual drum kit. That technical prowess, combined with a fascination for music of every shape, has resulted in outstanding releases on influential labels such as Planet E, Four:Twenty, Cocoon, Poker Flat, Nervous and Desolat. He’s also put his sonic thumbprint on many big ticket artists, notably receiving a Grammy nomination for a Tori Amos remix in 2003. Such diverse musical horizons are rare. While other prolific artists may have slowly watered down their music, Buttrich’s star has risen in diametric opposition. His vision has become more and more condensed, more and more crystallised. Flipping and puncturing grooves in a live setting is a snap for him, and he’s entranced audiences at festivals like Time Warp and Creamfields, at temples of boom such as Fabric (London), Womb (Tokyo), Cocoon (Frankfurt), Panorama Bar (Berlin) and Amnesia (Ibiza) and at worldwide Desolat Experience parties with Loco Dice.

Buttrich’s journey into electronic music began in clubs in Berlin and Hannover at the dawn of the ‘90s, when post-Summer of Love-Europe began to swing to its own hypnotic, machine-like groove. At 18 years old he began experimenting with production as X-Rotation (with Daniel Bross), which led to the projects Rhythm Assault, Sounds of Life and Phunk Diggazs (with engineer Andy Bolleshon).

Buttrich began a notorious collaboration with his then co-worker at Peppermint Jam distribution, Timo Maas, in the mid-‘90s (they worked the telephones together). After setting up his first studio in the basement of the Peppermint Park studio building, the partnership led to over 100 co-productions and remixes that included Madonna, Muse, Fatboy Slim. Josh Wink and Green Velvet. Buttrich has produced funk legend Bootsy Collins, while switching the patterns for artists including Tom Jones, Kelis, Moloko, Depeche Mode, Placebo, Yello, War and Roger Sanchez. His Azzido Da Bass “Dooms Night” remix with Timo Maas hit the UK top ten charts.
 
All the while he created an impressive library of beats and collected an arsenal of music production equipment for his studio in Timetools, a studio complex founded in 1997 in Hannover with a group of musicians. Buttrich is happy with the subtle crunch of an SP-12 sampler and the ‘smoky’ vibe of his analog mixing desk – adding a bass guitar or other instrument when necessary. But he’s not above having fun with a laptop either: approaching music programs as if they were video games. He doesn’t rely on any one machine or music composition technique, and his array of outboard gear is mouth-wateringly state of the art.
But he never loses touch with the gritty, human side of music, and the environments that it is played in.

Another key musical partnership, with Loco Dice, begun in 2002, undoubtedly inspired Buttrich to delve deeper into the musical histories that first lured him towards after-dark melodies. In a short space of time they’d built up a deep discography creating an era-defining sound in the process. They spent more than half a year living in New York in 2006/2007, with half of Buttrich’s studio set up in a rickety hideaway in Brooklyn that looked out over Manhattan’s vistas. Between late night production sessions and snowstorms, their Desolat label came to life.

Having his debut solo album Crash Test released on Desolat in early 2010, Martin Buttrich is taking his vision to the road, fusing wild imagination with solid musical architecture, cherry-picked inspiration with true perfection of his musical craft. 

Since then constantly on tour, in 2011 Martin Buttrich still has dropped a remarkable collection of music - productions like “Fire Files” EP on Desolat or remixes for Marco Carola and Lee Curtis amongst others.

Currently based in LA, Martin Buttrich is working on his second artist album and a jazz project called The Stoned Autopilot.

Stay tuned.
