Mix 45: Prowling For You

Vacuum Formula - Cathode - 02 Dipole

Cursed

release date (vinyl / cd / digital): 30th of October 2015

Take a look over Ashley Burchett’s back catalogue and you’ll find the Greater London resident has played an understated yet influential role in purporting British techno. Fifteen years ago Burchett’s prevailing Ø [Phase] project debuted on Sheree Rashit and Steve Bicknell’s Cosmic Recordings before providing Cosmic ID with its final record in 2002, and since 2007 Burchett's helped mould and define the sound of Token by becoming the label’s marquee artist.

In 2013 the Belgian imprint finally coaxed the debut album from Ø [Phase], Frames Of Reference, described in Tony Naylor’s 4/5 review for Resident Advisor as, “a techno album of real imagination and depth that, when it needs to be, is brutally functional.” Almost two years since its release Ø [Phase] is back with Alone In Time?, his second studio album which adds to the continuous slew of unrivalled long players Token has put out of late. Token spreads the 11-tracks on Alone In Time? across three heavy weight discs, and the music further demonstrates Burchett’s deft skill in linear arrangements shaped to fit the warehouse frame, while painting a colourful, Detroit influenced side to his productions yet to really be heard to this extent before.

This uncharted sound of Ø [Phase] can be found in tracks like “Remote”, the album’s homage to electro, to the jittery, alien grooves of “Spacialize”, “Mo_del” and “Nep-tune”. There’s big room domination on productions like “Orbitron” and “R-Mash”, while the album’s title-track is a journey through Burchett’s conceptual references to cosmology, time and isolation. Burchett explains, "it was always an intention to make another album and now just felt like the right time. Life moves on, we change and grow. As lessons get learned and ideas form, the desire to express them gradually manifests."

Furthermore, Burchett adds, “Frames Of Reference was about overcoming personal struggles and challenges, while Alone In Time? is more forward facing.” With an extensive back catalogue in his wake, Ø [Phase] has become a relied source for the discerning techno DJ and these new, expertly crafted club cuts add to his ever-expanding pool of productions for selectors to choose from, and it’s clear, if the bouncing rhythm of “Blind Eye” and orchestral epic of “The Maze” is anything to go by, Ø [Phase] isn’t only head strong, but standing tall.

We are proud to present two new EPs from De Bons en Pierre, the duo of Beau Wanzer @bwanz & Maoupa Mazzocchetti @maoupa-mazzocchetti . Beau Wanzer spends the majority of his days sifting through paraffin embedded animal tissues and reading old issues of Fangoria, occasionally breaking his monotonous routine to record in various fits and bursts. As well as solo material, he is also in numerous projects including Streetwalker, Mutant Beat Dance, Civil Duty, and Corporate Park. Maoupa Mazzocchetti is the pseudonym of Florent Mazzocchetti, a French producer based in Brussels. His sonic vision is one which constantly straddles the line between wild experimentation and rhythmic compatibility, drawing influence from early concrète, 80's tape scene and Birmingham school techno. 
After working together on the ‘Crepes’ EP that we released in 2017, De Bons en Pierre reunited for a two day recording session in Brussels. The duo recorded 13 tracks that we’ve split across 2 EPs with 6 tracks on ‘EP No. 1’ and 7 tracks on ‘EP No. 2’. Beau says, “We hooked everything up and just pushed play. We didn’t really discuss much about the process….it was very ‘spur of the moment’.” The equipment set up included a Roland TR-808, TR-606, SH-101, CR-78, CR-8000, two Syncussions and effects. Each EP contains 25 minutes of dance floor perversions that tackle an array of rhythmic forms. Sludgy synths, serrated percussion and viscous distortion goops over leviathan rhythms. All songs are mastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. ‘EP No. 1’ is housed in a sewage green jacket featuring a monster mask duo and spiky motifs designed by Florent Mazzocchetti, and ‘EP No. 2’ is radioactive orange with a different pair of monster masks.

Aleksandra Słyż is a composer, sound designer, and sound engineer. She is fascinated by interactive and multimedia art. In her music, she looks for connections between the human body, sound, and technology. Her works presented so far have been in the United States and Europe.

Aleksandra Słyż's debut album "Human Glory" has a dual nature. Intense and very emotional experience, built by layering, thickening, and intensifying drone parts of synthesizers (MG), intertwines with recordings created using motion sensors (BG), which created the sound recording of the choreography. Słyż is not afraid to lead the listener along winding paths - through silence and intricate details fragments of sound design, to massive, tectonic walls of sound. The precise logic of the composition naturally blends with intuition, and the album's narrative freely leads the listener from the microscale of the smallest particles of the world to epic film panoramas.

ORAMICS ma zaszczyt przedstawić utwór z debiutanckiego albumu Aleksdandry Słyż, wydanego w Pointless Geometry.

Aleksandra Słyż to kompozytorka, sound designerka, realizatorka dźwięku. Fascynuje się sztuką interaktywną i multimedialną. W swojej muzyce szuka połączeń między ludzkim ciałem, dźwiękiem i technologią. Jej prace prezentowane do tej pory były w Stanach Zjednoczonych i Europie.

Debiutancki album Aleksandry Słyż  “Human Glory” ma dwoistą naturę. Intensywne i bardzo emocjonalne doświadczenie, budowane przez nawarstwiające, gęstniejące i intensyfikujące się dronowe partie syntezatorów (MG), przenika się z nagraniami stworzonymi z wykorzystaniem sensorów ruchu (BG), dzięki którym powstał zapis dźwiękowy choreografii. Słyż nie boi się wieść słuchacza krętymi ścieżkami - przez ciszę i pełne kunsztownych detali fragmenty sound designu, aż do masywnych, tektonicznych ścian dźwięku. Precyzyjna logika kompozycji w naturalny sposób przenika się z intuicją, a narracja albumu swobodnie prowadzi słuchacza od mikroskali najmniejszych drobinek świata, do epickich filmowych panoram.
