🟩 LOCUS Mix Series #038 - Fabe

The eccentric beat ambassador Alexander Skancke showcases his sound once more on his Quirk label, diving into spring with his debut LP, “Kingdom Couch”. The Norwegian has crafted a versatile yet cohesive body of work between 2020 and 2023, parallel to when he began attending sessions with a therapist. The 10 track double 12” traverses between meticulously arranged minimal moods, shuffling jazz rhythms and ethereal experimental textures. In its few years of existence Quirk has become a safe haven for a freedom of expression as Skancke and his affiliates share their wild side on the label, but the LP marks a milestone on the imprint and for Alexander himself whose lifelong dedication to sound has built towards this moment, utilising the vast influences has absorbed over the years.

“Therapy Session I” teases you into the LP, shimmering blissfully as it grows, blossoming into a dream-like world, tuning your ears for the trip you are about to encounter. Constructed upon slick jazzy drums is “Lost In Time” loosening your senses as the pulsating bass swallows up your train of thought. “Dumbo Move” blurs the lines perfectly between the atmospheres the Berlin based producer has captured within the album. Dark, mysterious and mind bending material in “Purple Lucy” a chugging sub heavy bass driving the track forward as precise beeps and bleeps whirr throughout. On a more playful note is the B2, “Extravagance” animated drum patterns converse with the elastic groove perfectly. Closing off the first vinyl is “Therapy Session II”, another extended exploration of otherworldly ambience, drifting deeper in the world of Quirk.

“The Magnificent Tree Hut” stirs consistently throughout, crisp percussion combined with the psychedelic vocal samples which continue to flash in and out. Transitioning now into “Therapy Session III” sophisticated sounds, enticed further into the full bodied experience by the storytelling sounds of a female voice. Your eyes begin to close and you wake up in a hazy club setting, immersed in the after hours; that’s the immediate impact of “New Dawn”, pensive and hypnotic as it rumbles quietly in the realms of the underground. At just over ten minutes long Alexander Skancke brings you down for landing with the final “Therapy Sessions IV”, transcending movements crammed full of raw emotion, floating you calmly
out of the seventh outing on the label, and the thriving talents finest work to date.

The “Kingdom Couch” is an amalgamation of Skancke’s undying passion and burning desire to create outside of the norm, this can be heard throughout this masterpiece and will undoubtedly inspire its listeners to search for the bigger picture.

"Kicking off the EP we have the titular track 'BBQ Bass’. Subtle keys, a deep groove and pitched, twisted vocals characterise a special rhythm designed for the dance floor. 'Sugar High’ utilises dub wise vocal samples, an infectious sub-bass and crisp drum programming for a truly versatile track and ideal vibe shifter either up or down, depending on the context. Wrapping up the EP Fabe & Lindsey bring us ‘Zig Zag Joint’. A proper trip with a correct groove and extraterrestrial sonics."

PREMIERE: Fabe & Lindsey Matthews - BBQ Bass

Long time Fuse collaborator Fabe & Solid Grooves regular Lindsey Matthews combine on the ‘BBQ Bass’ EP, out via Salty Nuts’ playful and spontaneous little brother Sweet Nuts, both spearheaded by the aforementioned Berlin native Fabe. 

A collaborative EP that reflects the nature of the Sweet Nuts sub-label. The release came about over the course of just a week when Lindsey visited Fabe. The duo spent the mornings around Mitte drinking coffee, taking in their surroundings and like all good trips; eating. The end result of the pair’s sojourn was the ‘BBQ Bass’ EP.

DHL Expressure

Renowned for his crisp, punchy sound loaded with groove and its signature 'bounce', Mannheim's Fabe is undoubtedly one of the most loved acts in the minimal-leaning house realm, regularly gracing the decks at iconic venues such as Club der Visionäre and fabric.

Remember

Mannheim’s Fabe returns to his Salty Nuts imprint with three suave house cuts in ‘Q4 Gadgets EP’.

Highly respected for his signature sound merging elements of hip-hop, house and minimal, the German producer has released on the likes of Valioso, Infuse, Mulen Records, La Peña and Cocoon, when not helming his very own Salty Nuts. For the label’s tenth release Fabe is back in fine form.

With early support from Petre Inspirescu, ‘Gadget O’Flow’ is loaded with plenty of swing and comes complete with a funky bassline destined to do damage, making way for a syncopated cut called ‘Moog You’ that incorporates ethereal atmospherics, ascending synths and otherworldly acid licks. On the flip, ’31 Degrees’ is raw and murky with piercing snares, subtle keys and a cacophony of twisted effects.

Fabe ‘Q4 Gadgets EP’ drops on Salty Nuts in Late November 2019.
