Michna and label founder Sam Valenti IV last linked for 2009's Seeing Colors (https://soundcloud.com/ghostly/ghostlycast-38-michna-sv4-seeing-colors-ghostly-influences), a mix of Ghostly influences for the label's 10th anniversary. In advance of the label's 15th year, the pair have mixed a house/techno survey recorded at the end of the summer 2013 on the heels of SV4's MOMA PS1 set and as Michna was recording his new material. Prescriptive Haze offers a set of melancholy and hook-heavy floor cuts.

Solvent's own remix of "Loss For Words" - available on 7" vinyl, and digitally. 

Loss For Words (Solvent's CompuRhythm Mix)

Solvent's own remix, more like a completely new version with natural-as-in-not-vocoder vocals, of "Formulate". Sam from Ghostly called it the "Personal Jesus mix". This is a digital-download exclusive for Solvent's 2010 full-length "Subject to Shift" - actually I think it might even be exclusive to iTunes. 

Formulate (Solvent Redux)

End of Line Remix (Basic Slack Midnight Cheap Mix) - Tron Legacy

These are all the Screw Wave remixes I've done for the tracks on the New Waves and Minimal Electronics compilation.

Mixtape with some bonus material coming soon. Feedback always appreciated.

The Shape of Space 
WotNot 
Release Date: 29th April 2013

10 releases ago, an unknown label released an unknown band into the ether and on April 29th WotNot will again look to DA-10, releasing 'The Shape of Space'. While the label has steadily grown, so has DA-10’s reputation as one of the most original electronic acts around, leading to plays on BBC 6Music and an appearance on Electronic Exploration’s much-touted compilation. Their 100%-live-100%-hardware show has been turning heads and dropping jaws across the UK, just read any review of a show they’ve played.

DA-10 "Respirator"

For his latest release, Jake has taken two of his biggest live tracks from recent months. Recorded in single takes, with minimal post production, "Poble Sec" and "Manso" are more or less live recordings. The result is some very spontaneous technology music from the heart.

For over a decade, Jason Amm’s work as Solvent has neatly defied categorization. His music is too sweetly melodic for techno or acid, his compositions too fiendishly detailed for synth-pop. He was too steeped in the sounds of the ‘80s to participate in the incipient IDM scene; he was briefly lumped in with the short-lived electroclash movement, only to outlive it; he’s played “minimal wave” parties and goth clubs, indie-rock shows and techno all-nighters. But even as words fail in the face of Solvent’s music, its pleasures are anything but elusive.

Today, Zimbabwe-born Jason Amm lives in Toronto, ON, where he spends his time obsessively grappling with an outsized collection of vintage analog synthesizers, samplers, and sequencers. Solvent first materialized in 1997 with a string of singles and full-lengths (1998’s Solvent, 1999’s Solvently One Listens) on Amm’s own Suction Records, the Toronto-based label he founded with Lowfish’s Gregory DeRocher. The watershed release Solvent City (2001) on Berlin-based Morr Music introduced Amm’s sound to a wider audience, and Apples &amp; Synthesizers (2004) marked Solvent’s move to Ghostly International. Along with notable remixes of artists including Soft Cell, Alter Ego, and Adult., Solvent tracks have appeared on high-profile DJ mixes and seminal compilations.

Solvent’s most recent record on Ghostly International, 2010?s Subject to Shift, marks a turn for the darker as Amm embraces his love of the abrasive sounds of acid and industrial. And while a sinister tone or two now dances among Solvent’s sparkling hooks and bright streaks of synthesizer, and while Amm’s music drifts even further from accepted genre-specific reference points, Solvent’s sound has only deepened. After more than ten years of composing love songs for robots, Amm sounds like nothing more than himself.
