Resident Advisor about 'Aura': "Rough, rowdy and euphoric electro from Aura 137, the Russian duo's new EP for the Paris label TV Showw." - Will Lynch

Russian duo Yung Acid (@yung-acid-3) are specialised in what they describe as a combination of dirty electro, dry techno and pushy grime. Besides running their own label, Get Busy!, and organising parties between their hometowns of Kazan and Moscow, they've featured on a number of cassette compilations, including U S S R (Ur Social Status Resistance), a compilation of Russian and Ukrainian experimental dance music curated by Opal Tapes. Drvg Cvltvre debuted them on his New York Haunted label in 2016, followed by mind-blowing Thug Mansions EP released at the beginning of 2018. 

Yung Acid are back now on TV Showw with an eclectic EP titled "Aura 137". They go through raw and beautiful styles with a lot of ease. "Aura" and "Jap" are the poetic tracks. They should make you feel very nostalgic about something you don't even know. There's a ghetto side in "Late" with its Gangsta Boo (Three 6 Mafia) explosive vocals and in "Supa" in a more laid-back way. Electro experiments "137" and "Soug" are a great example of Yung Acid's ability to accomplish a lot with little. In addition, acid banger "Serpentine (Dirty Master)" closes the EP. It's nasty, very nasty...

@djraff first made his name in Chile where he helped to lay the foundation for what is now considered one of the most important hip-hop scenes in Latin America before progressing to producing electronic music. In the aftermath of the bloody 17 year military dictatorship that took over the country during the 70s, it wasn’t long before MCs and hip hop producers solidified an underground scene. Through his creative sampling, big beats and arrangements, DJ Raff propelled the scene forwards and his ability to seamlessly blend hypnotic electronic beats with traditional Chilean and Latin sounds have earned him a place among Latin America’s most highly regarded DJs and producers.

At 12 years old he started experimenting with a double tape deck and an old turntable to make loops and beats, not knowing he was on his way to forming the hip-hop and electronic music scene in Chile. Fast forward a few years and DJ Raff’s name now appears as a DJ/sound engineer/producer on over 50 hip-hop releases in Chile, including that of French-Chilean rapper Anna Tijoux’s group Makiza (before she went on to achieve mainstream success fueled by a sync on hit TV show Breaking Bad).

In 2011, DJ Raff released his game changing track ‘Latino & Proud’ on Nacional Records (Bomba Estereo, Ana Tijoux) which featured on EA Sports FIFA 2012 and was the theme tune for Comedy Central’s Emmy Award- winning series ‘Broad City’ in the US. Despite the success of his hip-hop productions, he gradually became more interested in experimenting with evocative instrumental music and so his journey into electronic music began in the early 2000s.

DJ Raff has has DJ-ed/played live shows at major events in South America and Europe like Sonar Barcelona, Mutek.ES, Lollapalooza (US, Argentina, Chile) and RBMA Mexico. Red Bull invited him to mentor at the RBMA Bass Camp academy in Chile and his last album, ‘Movimiento’, a collection of electronic tracks drawing on dembow, Brazilian and tropical influences, was released in 2017 on Nacional Records. The album earned him a nomination for best electronic music artist at the Pulsar awards in Chile.

Resistencia (Resistance), is DJ Raff's electronic interpretation of the resistance needed in our inescapably saturated world of advertising, consumerism and divisive politics. 

The artwork is by renowned Chilean artist Iván Navarro whose installation, ‘Homeless Lamp, The Juice Sucker’, reflects the EP’s theme of resilience and resistance in the face of adversity.

DJ Raff - Resistencia

Hailing from the ancient Russian city of Tambov, on the banks of the Tsna River, the youngest member of the трип family Vladimir Dubyshkin emerges for a potent debut solo EP. cheerful pessimist is an engaging package of highly anticipated deep, swirling techno tracks that many will recognise from label head Nina Kraviz’s DJ sets.

Diving straight into the core of a peak time set, Vladimir unleashes five formidable doses of unrestrained energy. Swollen sub bass and thumping percussion forge an unmistakable sense of physicality, whilst spiralling, amelodic leads run circles around the listener.

cheerful pessimist wastes no time warming up, plunging head first into the belly of the beast. A thrilling debut and an essential release for lovers of vibrant techno.

For their final release of 2018, Planet E present DJ Deep & Traumer's remixes of Klauss & Craig, the collaboration between Argentinian synth ensemble Klauss and Carl Craig, which debuted with the ‘Momentum’ EP earlier in the year.

Out November 30th, the three-track remix EP’s origins were as a pair of spec mixes by DJ Deep (Cyril Etienne) and his regular collaborator Roman Poncet aka Traumer. The duo found inspiration from the original Klauss & Craig EP that led to spontaneous experiments on their own remixes.

Soon a trio of versions emerged, with two by the duo together, and an additional solo mix by Poncet under his Traumer alias. Etienne sent their work to Craig, who immediately decided to give them their own release on Planet E, in turn helping Etienne achieve one of his own dreams to release on the legendary Detroit label.

Weaving intricate percussive themes with analogue melodies they deliver two takes on ‘Repeat After Me’ - ‘Free Your Mind’ and ‘Free Your Soul’ - before Traumer, inspired by the process, goes on his own for the final track ‘Repeat After Me - Reduced Mind’, creating undulating bass loops which glide under warm pads.

Tracklist:

A2 Repeat After Me (DJ Deep & Traumer - Free Your Soul)
