SQUAREPUSHER INTERVIEW / Music for robots (Warp 2o14)

PROXLTD001 - GLYPH - ESCAPE

Keeping things traditional on this one with Ragga voxs and stabs this dancefloor gem features smooth jump up beats and a seriously heavy sounding bassline that will have the party people banging their 'Headz' all night!  


PROX001  -  XTRAH  -  HEADZ UP

Xtrah introduces us with some pristine brass elements and yet more crispy clean percussion. What is perceived to be his 'sound' is nicely gelled together with some bouncy rhythmical drum patterns.  The sub is introduced early to the listener this time round but make no mistake as on the drop expect the low end frequencies of the sub to swiftly move and modulate with what can only be described as a hurricane of gritty synth sequences and one shot edits.  A disturbing, though some what subliminal vocal stating some of humanities darker traits rounds this track off.

PROX001  -  XTRAH  -  ONLY TRUTH

Once tuned into the self entitled track 'Proximity' brace yourself for a truly chilling journey into sound.  With its dynamical content and flow, along with crisp and clear percussion, thumping drums, haunting minimal vibe and warm moving sub, this track will surly get you in the mood for what's to come.  


PROX001  -  XTRAH  -  PROXIMITY

Xtrah takes us through a mystical sequence of atmospherical pads and voxs to build this track up to what later mutates into a swirl of twisted bass accompanied with tight breaks and all round darkness.  



PROX001  -  XTRAH  -  THRESHOLD

Simplicity seems to be the trick here until hard hitting beats and crashing rides progress this track into an onslaught of crunched up leads topped off a warm, thick sounding sub.  An array of programmed keys are decently made use out of for the hook which will without doubt set you off on a quest throughout the dancefloor continuum.  The overall vibe of 'Bodyparts' will inevitably give you the sense and feeling that someone out there could really be after your insides!  Watch out, it could be the person dancing next to you!

We figured it was time for some d&b again, we had a few tracks lying around for a while that we wanted to finish and put out and we had 2 collabs that went well together. We wanted to call it the 'Tryhard EP', cause all the tracks were so full on. Then Nik & Karol (http://khomatech.com) started on the artwork, and couldnt really come up with anyuthing cool with that name, so we decided 'Imperial' was a better name. The artwork took about a week to make. We are very proud of this EP.

Imperial w/ Phace 
Phace came out to Groningen again, as he tends to do, to do music. We started this one without working on the main groove first, Florian had brought this awesome chord progrssion. We made the intro and progression from it, which is quite different musically from our normal stuff. Then we went a bit theatrical with the music, i guess we kind of suprised ourselves with the intensity of the drop. But it was refreshing to do. And it´s been going down rather well in our sets..

Tryhard
This is an older track that has had quite a few incarnations. It used to be called ´lomp´, which translates to crude, or blunt. We had it lying around unfinished for a long time, and a certain youtube set rip was getting a lot of love, so we figured we'd finish it. Changed the mix, added a rollout section, etc. One of the inspriations for this track is Bad Company - 'Dogfight'.. such a sick tune. 

Dustup w/ The Upbeats
Our friends The Upbeats came down to Groningen amidst one of their Europe tours and we hung out, got in the studio, found an old unused bass riff, used it in the buildup, recorded all of us going 'HA' and 'ZU', worked on drum fills for a long time, temporarly called the tune 'Pumpers', jumped around in the studio and voila! 'Dust Up' was born. 

Containment
This track has had many faces also. It started as a bit of a Kemal tribute and and an attempt to do as many things with synths as possible, like the main drums for example (FM8). Along the way it became a journey back into the dark spacious sound of early 2000 era D&B.
