AFFKT - SopaSopa EP [Renaissance 2313]

GLENN MORRISON - LIVE & MODULAR - DJ MIX - SEPT 2021 - PRESS RELEASE

It was in June 2016 and just over 5 years ago today that Glenn Morrison's majestic 'Goodbye' crashed into the Billboards at Number 1 for 11 weeks in a row.  One of the first Canadian electronic music acts ever to do so, and in the years ahead became a long running battle with bemused Top Of The Pops producers, who couldn't work out what to do with a classical pianist turned underground club wunderkind turned pop superstar, who largely performs behind a mixing desk, absorbed in the act of creation. In a sense, you could see their point.

For the rest of us, it was a good time.  Dance records were starting to make a mass impact on the mainstream.  Invention was in the air.  For Morrison, on the other hand, it was confusion.  Though the establishment classed him as a classical music composer and pianist, DJs would play his tunes and the radio would play his pop hits - this was a multilayered cake of an artist with deep roots in musical understanding and translation.

What Morrison has been doing over these years is quietly spearheading a movement away from the utilitarian musical philosophies that had come to dominate on the club fringe: the idea that to fill a dance floor for a few hours was enough.  As Glenn Morrison, he wanted to make music that you could listen to anywhere; he wanted to play live like a band plays live, to improvise and challenge what it means to be an electronic act on the touring landscape. That word improvise is the key.  To this day, Morrison still declines to describe himself as a 'dance' act.

'I don't differentiate between electronic music or any other kind' says Glenn, who, at the age of 35, is at the forefront of the global electronic music scene, with his classical ambient compositions, to his brooding techno modular iterations, to his meditative piano scores.

In other words, Glenn Morrison has helped to reclaim electronic music as an art form, one with a history stretching back more than 50 years.  Take 'Love You' and the recent single 'Just Over The Bridge', for instance, with their spiralling, chattering main theme and chaotic cross-rhythms - they have more in common with the work of avant grade orchestral composers such as Michael Nyman or Philip Glass. This is allied to a purity of sound most often associated with early electronic pioneers Kraftwerk.  The stuttering arpeggiated clashes of 'Modern Classical' or 'Controlled Randomization' bring to mind the vintage moves of Human League or Brian Eno.  These fragments give a pleasantly direct, post-acid, modern spin.  You can dance to it if you want.  You don't have to.

We are proud to unveil Glenn's latest artistic album offering, and for all news please go to your friendly Google and search for Glenn Morrison on your favourite portals.

Glenn Morrison - Exclusive Vinyl DJ Mix [February 16, 2022]

EARLY DJ SUPPORT - John Digweed, Sasha, Joris Voorn, Roger Sanchez, Claptone, and many more - 

Blissful melodic atmospheric feels on this live modular composition I wrote, using the medium of my synthesizers and eurorack to make electronic music in a different way than inside the computer with blandless presets and VSTs.  'Beyond the Pale' is emotive and deep, replete with the incredible Petar Dundov remix on the B Side - LISTEN LOUD and thank you for all of your support it means a lot to me

Best

PREMIERE: AFFKT - Sopasopa (1979 Remix) [Renaissance]

Glenn Morrison & Brian Cid have been longtime friends and partners in crime in various music projects.  Whether it’s writing platinum selling records for some of the biggest pop artists in the world to writing killer underground house records which find its way into the most rambunctious parties worldwide, it’s safe to say that they are natural borne musicians through and through.  The desire to create something from nothing is a true art in itself and with their many years of experience forms a dynamic and deadly duo that is a force to be reckoned with on the dance floor.

Innervisions is the A side and it typifies the floaty atmospheric nature of the release.  Crunchy industrial drums juxtapose a warm and rich baseline tone, and a very smooth entry into the breakdown leaves us with a half time broken beat melodic wash to spice up the midsection. ‘Nu’ is a much more mellow affair, with splashes of melody thrown over a pretty four chord arpeggiated main base.  It’s a very heady record and something perfectly suited to a late night  after-hours session or pre partying to the calm before the storm.

This is a very strong release which will forecast 2015 in a positive light for both Glenn & Brian in the house world.  With many exciting release plans brewing over the course of the year please stay tuned to their latest exploits by visiting www.glennmorrison.com and www.briancid.com

Brian Cid & Glenn Morrison - Tulum (Original Mix)

I was just practicing tonight and felt like recording one of the pieces.  Beethoven's Sonata No. 14 in C# minor Op. 27 No. 2, or otherwise known as 'Quasi una fantasia' or the 'Moonlight Sonata'.  I recorded this on a Steinway D and mastered it in my mastering studio www.alpinemastering.com  

Hope you all enjoy.

The final and title track from Brian Cid's forthcoming 'Belles Du Shaman EP'.

Follow Brian Cid: @briancid

Partial Press Release: The 43rd release on microCastle welcomes Brian Cid back to the label for a brand new EP. The NYC based artist has enjoyed much success since his label debut in December of 2014. An EP on Hot Since 82's Knee Deep In Sound and a mini LP on Guy J's Lost & Found Records top his 2015 highlights, while 2016 holds even greater promise with a new project for Cityfox on the horizon. Over the last 12 months Brian's sound has taken on a life of its own, increasingly organic and deeply emotional, the US artist has further stretched his sonic boundaries, with luminaries such as Adriatique, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, Joris Voorn, Richie Hawtin and Thugfucker now play listing his music. His return to microCastle has been much anticipated and a quiet start to 2016 has only made his rapidly expanding fan base even hungrier for new material. Brian now presents his second EP for the Canadian imprint entitled 'Belles Du Shaman' alongside a remix from Eagles & Butterflies.

The release begins with the title track and finds Brian carving out one of his most distinctive grooves to date. Layered beats and mystical pads set the piece in motion before an underbelly of warm bass swells fully initiates the journey. Highlighted by soulful vocal stabs the first act strikes an emotive chord, foreshadowing a break of warm harmonies and cinematic tones, ultimately leading to a third act of timely drops and heart-warming rushes. It's one of Brian's most unique creations and not surprisingly it comes from a special place, as he describes "Belles Du Shaman is a musical story of pain & struggle as well as hope & light. The hard drums and synths set the tone for this deep, pulsating and melancholic EP, that drowns in a sea of sounds, touching every weak corner of my heart. When I wrote this track I had just visited the mountains of Utah, more than 10,000 feet up. In a night of music and stars I was moved by how powerful and meaningful a space in time can be. A land that provides us with water, food, shelter... it gives us life as well as meaning. Imagine losing this. How it can impact our life and culture as well as our history and being. The end result of all these feelings and realizations came out in this track." 

Brian Cid - Belles Du Shaman (Original Mix) [microCastle] (Preview)

EARLY SUPPORT - Solomun, Luciano, Sasha, Maceo Plex, Danny Tenaglia, Steve Lawler, Richie Hawtin, Cevin Fisher, Chris Fortier, D-Formation, Erick Morillo, B Traits, Amine Edge, Dave Angel, Wally Lopez,  Djuma Soundsystem, KOLLEKTIV TURMSTRASSE, Ramon Tapia, Claude VonStroke,  Edu Imbernon,  Frankey & Sandrino, Gabriel Ananda.

One of the main fixtures throughout underground club culture has been that screeching 808 / acid house style darkroom rave vibe.  This EP is really furthering the creative exploration and possibilities that come with this classic style, and whilst Glenn Morrison’s original has a tribal terrace style flow, the Sei A remix is blisteringly fresh techno.  With all the right flashes of minimalism and production fullness, this is an absolute STAPLE for the big festivals like Sonar in Barcelona, and Cocoon at Amnesia in Ibiza.
