Fraxinus - Position [Displacement]
Label: Powerplant
Catalog #: POW1R
Format: 12” Vinyl & Digital Data
Release Date: 05/11/21

Pre-order: www.powerplant.link

Fraxinus emerges from temporary suspension with a monolithic 6-track offering on his new self-release label Powerplant. This is his debut EP Position [Displacement], carved from a solid block of Devonian granite.

After a 4-year dormancy, the Amsterdam-based artist returns with a 30 minute transmission of earth-shaking kick drums, thunderous percussion and razor-sharp sound design. The label’s inaugural release simultaneously marks the first proper outing for the artist, following a run of compilation features & special edition vinyl excursions dating back to 2014.

Position [Displacement] is a journey of divergent moods & cadences, from the wistful flutes of opener 'Overland' to final track 'Laced'’s uncompromising arpeggios. Billowing melodies & piercing stabs run in tandem with a pummelling & steppy rhythm section; 'Source Code' builds steadily, paving the way for 'Pass One'’s warehouse-ready assault. The blooming, fluorescent synths of '115 (Kondo)' — named for the mythical Amsterdam club — create a mid-way moment of euphoria, before 'Larch' marches on with its clattering drums.

The tracks clearly contain DNA from Fraxinus’ foundations with the Her Records cohort — lean, direct & forward-thinking. This time around the aesthetic is more focused, transferred to techno schematics but veering away from 4/4 fare. The sonics have been compacted into dense slabs of energy, primed for soundsystem dispatch.

Wholly original, crafted with precision; Position [Displacement] serves as a powerful statement of intent for both artist & label.

*PREMIERE* Roaming Data - Nothing There

DJ BITCHPLEASE X N95 - GIMME YOUR MONEY

W133 starts the year with a brand new release by Ulm’s producer Kid Kun. He delivers four hard-hitting techno/bass hybrids complemented by a remix from No Sir, who returns to the label after an appearance on W133001.

"Gaslight," the title-giving track of the EP, immediately sets the tone for the release. Dark atmospheres and sci-fi pads decorate the driving broken baseline and kick. After that, "Hypersonic," with a similar vibe but slightly more chill energy, grooves its way into your ears.
In the third position, we find the dancefloor smasher "Send Your Stuff Into A Modular System And Smile." It bursts with energy and pushes you forward with a distorted bass, hidden voices, and breaky drum patterns and will definitely make you smile. 
The last original track of the EP is "Inflict," another dark sub-frequency roller, this time with long melodic bassy pads and a spooky touch. 
On remix duties, No Sir delivers a playful interpretation of "Hypersonic," giving it some arpy high acid sounds with tripped-out rhythms!

The EP is available as a digital download, or can be ordered with a printed and signed artwork in A4 size. The photography for the artwork is by Freya Gerz.
