Avatism - Adamant

KONSTANTIN SIBOLD & LEIF MÜLLER - KOLIBRI - COCOON COMPILATION N - CORLP036

Richard Davis’ ‘Same Room’, a June release from the Berlin-educated Londoner that rumbled and tech-stepped its way into Pete Tong’s Weekend Hot Mix, makes a reappearance on Slovenia’s Danza Macabra imprint for the tail-end of the summer. Following a sharp label remix on the original three-track package, ‘Same Room Recomposed’ features two follow-up contrasts in the dark arts of deep house and techno, provided by the scheming Avatism and Swayzak.

Thomas Feriero as Avatism casts a stark spectre across the depths between doom-predicting house and powerfully chorded progressive techno, circling his own ‘Adamant’ album from last year. Glints of light scurry as if they’re trying to play tricks on you, and breakdowns cannot fail to put spines on ice. Authoritative string sweeps, whose scrutinising nature is as if Avatism is examining the crowd with a magnifying glass, are in direct competition with sprawling jet-powered basslines skulking below the dancefloor’s surface. Fully understanding the ideology of epic, it’s a thrill ride never found ever letting its guard down, travelling from minimal and primal to escalating and elaborate.

One of techno/tech house’s higher educators is David Brown under the seasoned guise of Swayzak; reunited with Davis after 2013’s ‘Shut Me Down’, the ‘Tordal Smesh’ mix begins as a booming pound of house shadowing the earth’s core. After descrambling signals moving in reverse while vocal strains apply hot breath to your ears - the pump of the drum unwavering to what is an enigmatic thought process - Swayzak’s decision to take his time turns Davis’ original into a game of cat and mouse. Just when you think it’s all gone quiet and the track is being put to bed, it dramatically kicks back into life as the bottom end reactivates and puts game faces back in play.

Stephan Bodzin – Singularity

Beatport link: http://classic.beatport.com/release/singularity/1523803

Rising from humble beginnings like Icarus heading towards the skies, Singularity plots its course for the stratosphere as it heads ever onwards and upwards…but unlike Icarus this is a tempered and restrained ascent not an easy task to pull off but one that makes the impact so much stronger for it's subtle, ever evolving simplicity. 

With a melody that comes on like a half-remembered memory and lingers long after the sound itself fades away, Singularity stays with you, slowly and carefully weaving its way around you while its drums beat a steady, forceful pulse and its percussion jumps in and out like Billy Pilgrim skipping thru time. The combined effect is something much more than the sum of its parts. Somehow this simple techno tune creates an entire world of its own and asks you to inhabit it for a while, losing yourself in the process..

On the flip side, Monoloc exercises an equal and proportional restraint in his take on things. Like a voice emerging from a faded dream, the melody peeks out behind a curtain of reverb and industrial drums compellingly foreshadowing its full potential. Growing from there, the atmosphere slowly engulfs the listener until finally the slow build up reaches its full force providing a fantastic re-imagining of the original with an almost romantic yet no less powerful conclusion.
