In the second of a two part EP series, we explore techniques and structure of Popular Music transformed to extended, club friendly dub concepts through the collaborative process. Sounds were sourced, generated, sampled, looped, saturated, filtered and warped to create new alternative works from vinyl samples, sourced sound from retailers and studio recordings. Again collaborating with Team Green, we utilized their unique process of silk screen printing, to capture an image that best responded to this EP. The outcome was influenced by the title track, where eyes were repeated to create a sense of seduction, overlayed on a recycled disco record sleeve, as a whole insinuating naughty mischief inside the club.

Turning the dial on the radio, the song switches to warm disco loops and old 70’s film samples into a contemporary Disco House fit for the club dancefloor. The drop sucks you through a wormhole with a bouncy bassline after being lured with an enticing voice to “escape into the music.” The groove continues to roll with voices floating in delay and spacious lasers reverberating and bouncing off one's ear drum as if Garage and Disco music met for the first time. Again, we took advantage of additional mixing by Fedrico from Art Facility in Brooklyn and Adam Boose in Cleveland at Cauliflower Audio. The collaboration processed the track as if it belonged during the heyday of 70’s Disco.

Smashing into track 2, a spongy organ melody precursors a low end Garage Bassline. With its shattering qualities, a vocal drop that puts its foot down on the dancefloor while the listeners hear the words “I Won’t.” In addition, Piano stabs work through the track with laser sounds while shuffled Garage drums drive the groove all the way through. 

The final track, Right Now, Your Touch embodies the grooves of Chicago House with poppy vocals spreading in and out. High cut electric piano stabs create seductive qualities while snare rolls anticipates drops and key changes towards the end. 

In the last 2 tracks of this EP, we took advantage of Matt Sargeant skills and process, along with the up north Manchester environment to embed the city's unique sound onto this New York House club track. This collaboration or tossing and processing sounds from across the pond, enables all collaborators to share their voice on the dancefloor from afar.

In a new series of upcoming releases, we explore techniques and structure of Popular Music transformed to extended, club friendly dub concepts through the collaborative process. Sounds were sourced, generated, sampled, looped, saturated, filtered and warped to create new alternative works from vinyl samples, sourced sound from retailers and studio recordings. 

This first set of tracks reaches out to collaborators for administration, artwork, and additional mixing and mastering. When working with Miguel from Team Green, a brief was presented with initial concepts for their interpretation and response to the music. The end product was a collaboration where record sleeves were recycled and the process of creating a silkscreen image would be applied onto the object to represent something old being recycled and reused for a new purpose.

How Ya Feel, How Ya Feel is a slow Techno track that embarks on a journey of familiar grooves reminiscent of Joey Beltram’s classic New York Techno days. As sweat rolls down the breast bone for the first time in the night, one surrenders to the groove with a nod to Chicago and Detroit scenes while tuning into the soul when this song is noticed.

Fries is a Minimal Tech House release with a damp organ bassline that is driven by a 909 Kick pushing out as if it was breaking through your chest. T. Nguyen’s creative outlook melds sonic frequencies inspired by The Pet Shop Boys, Sade and pop female vocals. An early breakdown after the hats, brings up a delayed filled spanish style guitar, while layered vocals swim dynamically to be greeted with 303 arps. This and the previous tracks had additional mixing by Fedrico from Art Facility out of Brooklyn NY and Adam Boose from Cleveland. The pair integrated classic tape and mixing techniques to make the tracks meld with each other.

Uh Ohh, comes to be the third track exploring sounds  and rhythms of UK Funky and Afro House music after Black Coffee’s Grammy Winning album. Right from the start, one hears a perpetuating bassline with short synth stabs opening up behind some melodic keys. The drop sets up the strings section with reverberated vocals with a coating of rhythmic shakers to keep the club moving. The track has nods to Beyonce, patterns of Bucie, and shuffles from DJ Sneak.  The track was sent to Manchester base mastering engineer Matt Sargeant, which gave it the classic “up north” sound.

This is the first single off the forthcoming vinyl LP by T. Nguyen from Brooklyn, New York. We are teaming up with Diggers Factory in France to make a limited run of 200 pressings of the LP to be shipped this summer. To help support the LP, we are digitally releasing this single with two additional tracks, on the last Friday of March 2022 - (3/25/22).

A first generation immigrant of Vietnamese refugee parents, T. Nguyen sounds consist of driving drums, vintage tape noise, rounded piano tones, and analog static. His sonic vignettes are portraits of past stories of late night New York parties, morning afters, and realizations digested through the subtleties of perception and sound vibrations. T. Nguyen’s palette and analog process through Tascam boards, Roland delays, and a Teac reel to reel tape machine removes the music out of the digital space into a tangible physical reality. His music captures to confront the listener with their own process of being through low-end frequencies, found samples, and swung dance loops.

The single eases in with soft pads and a firm kick drum on the opening title, The Kissing Song. The track’s contracting soft synths float in and out of view of the ear, dropping us on the dance floor, amongst souls, touching one another through earthly connections.

Roland Carter’s Synth Remix opens with string, stabby synths followed by a four to the floor kick. The song then introduces the 303 bass allowing the synths to drive the song around the delayed rim shots. Roland Carter offers a different bassline arrangement which releases  tension with a rounded digital woodwind melody in the later half of the song. The song was originally taken from a longer mix done on a analog mixing desk. 

The Short & Sweet edit, snap shots the best parts of the night, compressing The Kissing Song to under five minutes for friendly airplay.
