Quartet Series is back with the Bodybuilder Series after Scott Franka’s popped the new offshoot’s cherry in the spring. For this sophomore release, Nachtbraker sourced some serious production talent from Eindhoven, The Netherlands. While it’s the Portamento Boys’ first ever release, they have the chutzpah to go full-frontal Italo and pull it off with great panache with a moody and energetic EP. The record is characterised by catchy melodies, quirky vibes and warm analog grooves. Connoisseurs will instantly recognise the TR-606 and 707, SH-101, Ensoniq Esq1 and a Casio CZ-3000. The Italo express jets off and takes no prisoners with “Been There Come Back”, a banging workout paying homage to the glorious 80’s. Shoulder-pad boogie anyone? “Portamento 101” feels like you’re playing the 1986 version of Outrun on your Sega. On the flip “Final Dinner” serves up some fine Asian-Italian fusion Cuisine, and finally the P Boys drop “Eighty Ain’t”, acknowledging that even though the tracks are clearly inspired by the 80s, they didn’t just emulate, but innovate instead. Now let’s introduce the Portamento Boys. Some say it al began when the first episode of "Jacques, zo is het wel weer genoeg geweest" was aired on the Dutch box back in the second half of 1988. Others say it was the respect he got for robbing the local Albert Heijn with the famous saying, "Hallo, Jumbo" that made him end up in solitary confinement. His colleagues say he never let go of Piet, his last undercover assignment. But the only one to help him in these times of mental distress, identity crises and general psychosomatic turmoil was Koos. After all these years there is a mantra to find in Piet’s life that keeps him going. He managed himself, stayed on his feet and let his life live him instead of the other way around: 'I never chose this life, and neither did Koos'. To keep personalities as Piet alive, Koos helped him form an undercover band. Problem might be that they have switched names more often than an octave switches in harmony from scale to scale. That’s why they return as the Portamento Boys. Always modulating about and in between. Nothing appears as it seems. Andiamo!

D974

Premiere : James Welsh - Boltmaker [Phantasy Sound]

Intrepid Kiwi music-maker Mara TK cooks up a soulful, free-spirited two-track EP, Taniwhunk, with deeply magnetic results. Here is as authentic a listen as you are likely to get all year, experimental, challenging, enriching music without polished edge or tiresome brand-building edifice. Taniwhunk is 21st century Maori music - music with something to say...everything to say.
 
The Maori, New Zealand’s orginal inhabitants, have experienced centuries of upheaval following subsequent European settlement and their need for loud, insightful voice in today’s turbulent, over-developed world is greater than ever. Beautifully stark EP opener Run is a powerful Maori challenge to selfish, ruthless authority, its gentle exhale of percussion and guitar providing sheer lift to TK’s pure soul vocals on fighting fear, deception and cultural poverty. Acclaimed Detroit DJ-producer Moodymann adds electronic bite to a remix, meanwhile, punching jagged, metallic rhythms through a stirring haze of b-line organ, digital hum and sharp keys. The Maori are speaking with digital clarity.
 
Second Taniwhunk cut, Anyone Here?, ups the tempo and extends TK’s important dialogue with the listener. Here forceful drum and piano loops build into spirals of synth, shuffling cymbals and more sweet yet sweeping vocals, TK serving us personal, heartfelt thoughts on the displacement of community and its identity and, in turn, the corporate misuse of land which has killed off a truly sustainable, age –long way of life. A remix by London DJ-producer Simbad moves firmly into raw house territory - deep analogue bass spliced with phased ‘n’ filtered synths and seriously cuttin’ drums to mesmeric effect – but story remains key; how could it not?
 
Mara TK, one third of acclaimed, genre re-defining soul trio Electric Wire Hustle, hails from Canterbury, an area of New Zealand’s South Island holding huge historical significance for the Maori. Reconfigured over several centuries by Western capitalism, and ravaged in recent years by literally thousands of earthquakes, Canterbury promises little today for its original settlers. Where natural diasaster hasn’t struck, industry-scale dairy farming pollutes local rivers preventing the sustainable fishing upon which TK’s family, and people, once based their peaceful lives.
 
TK, then, is a self-confessed ‘Maori In Space’; a new age tribesman striking back with the technological tools at his disposal in these bewildering, highly advanced times, and some considerable talent, to express the Maori’s mana in high definition and with panoramic reach. Taniwhunk balances statement and style perfectly; art imitating and enhancing life….
