Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS171

Radio Slave returns to his Rekids imprint for his first release of 2021, ‘Variations’.

Marking the first release of 2021, Matt Edwards aka Radio Slave turns in four thundering tracks loosely based around a common theme: his signature maximal minimalism mixed with classic dub techno aesthetics.

While his recent anthemic single ‘Live My Life’ displays Edwards’ knack for twisting vocal hooks into main room artillery, ‘Variations’ sees the Berlin-based producer head for room 2, showcasing Edwards ability for crafting devastatingly effective heads-y techno.

After releasing Robert Hood’s incendiary ‘Mirror Man’ LP towards the end of 2020, Rekids is showing no signs of slowing down for 2021. With this release highlighting an artist at the top of his game, ‘Variations’ adds yet another powerful and striking 12” to both the discography of one of electronic music’s most essential labels and one of its most lauded artists.

Biography



DJ & Producer LEE CUSHION


Saw the light of the music world in Schönebeck in the middle of Germany in April 1980, where his Dj project * Lee Cushion * from 1997 - 98 approx.
Was slowly brought to life.

By playing and playing tracks from this time and visiting various music events like festivals, love parade parties, underground clubs, discos in the hometown like Stadtpark as well as the duet bar or other clubs all over Germany
He had gained experience, knowledge and handling of various DJ equipment.
The love of music developed very quickly, just hang up and have fun was the motto ... Rock N Roll :-)
At some point, he had the handle so securely under control and the transitions were so perfectly designed so that the people on the dance floor completely pulled out of life and that was his goal.
It was flashed by various DJ's mix sets eg at that time mainly by Steve Mason.
The earlier were recorded with the first affordable cassette recorder that could be afforded by the UK radio station BFBS.
Idols Djs like Tammy Morris, Mark Spoon, great-grandfather Sven Väth,
James Parker and Jonhny D. have shaped it from the skills and mix-technically.
It started old school at that time with the good old (RFT) cassette decks these possessed a pitch control function as from the record player who could regulate the speed.
This is a very normal 4 - channel stereo mixer with motor level display.
His tape recordings he had gathered from all his favorite music mixed back and forth to some effect in 2000 to some effect devices and CD player was re-equipped, they had one
10 sec.Sample Recording function with A (Start REC) and B (EndREC).
This of course improved the sound quality and its mixing technology changed.
Over the years until now, a new set-up followed after the next 2002, where his first record players were affordable and have come to uninterrupted use.
For the first steps of producer experiments he tried some music programs such as Ableton, Logic x Pro, Cubase, Rease, FL, Sony Acid, etc., with the whole range of MIDI controllers, groove machines, synthesizers, Equalizers, Samplers, I Pad Apps, to the complete Home Studio.
And with that, the musical direction on which he was orientated was already nearly born ..... Continues to follow!
