ALLEY159
RIC NIELS Roots EP

001 encounter
002 encounter juan deminicis remix
003 kinton
004 kinton weird sounding dude remix
005 roots

Trademark melodies and effortless soundscapes flow through the fingertips of Ric Niels as he displays his true "Roots". Verdant backdrops and rocky outcrops look over vast nature reserves as beautiful melodies glisten in the sultry atmosphere of a new "Encounter". Shimmering motifs and arpeggiated sequences fall in rivulets across "Kinton". Edgy synths and rolling phrases shift in symmetrical patterns against the undulating mountainside, building to a powerful summit of melody and emotion, an explosion echoes in the valley below. Beneath the forest canopy new "Roots" hold a commanding bassline force resonating with raw analogue power Towering overhead, new phrases blossom amongst the treetops in vibrant energy.

An Argentinean maestro forges a mesmerising new "Encounter" that bristles with organic energy and intense beauty. Beautifully animated melodies from Juan Deminicis create an atmosphere that conjures images of birdsong and teeming wildlife. Bristling with vitality, a path into the heart of the jungle is a trip of a lifetime. From the side of the sun, Weird Sounding Dude creates a dazzling new interpretation of "Kinton". Seductive and exquisite, a new aural chemistry creates an alloy of precious sounds that gleam in the dark earth. Reverberated sounds echo into the distance in sonic shards of birdsong while hypnotic melodies hold sway against the quebracho blanco.

I've been listening to electronic music since I was old enough to tune into the John Peel show on Radio 1. Peel first introduced me to Chicago House, Detroit Electro and Rap. I would listen to an entire show with my finger hovering over the record button of my 'tape-recorder' close to the radio speaker just to record whatever 3 electronic imports he would play each night. I wish I'd kept those recordings.
From the moment I first heard 'Roxanne Shante' I sought out everything I could ranging from Kraftwerk, Mike Oldfield, Kurtis Mantronik, Africa Bambata, Grandmaster Flash, Gorgio Morodor, Axel-F, Jean Michel Jarre and just about anyone who used a synth to make music! With the arrival of House in the mid-late 80's the likes of Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Steve Silk Hurley, Adonis and many more American underground House producers, the music had developed into a new, seriously exciting phenomena.
Music progressed at pace with House and Acid imports driving change, the UK in particular underwent an epiphany of sorts in the 80's and 90's. From Break-Dancing to New Romanticism, the music developed, finally morphing into the early genres of Acid Trance, Techno and Progressive Trance. Heavily influenced by American and underground Dutch and German artists and with the advent of clubbing and non-speaking mixing DJ's, it opened up a Pandora's box of new music, influences, sounds and styles. What that amounted to for me (and most others like me) was an ever-growing range of electronic music that was continually breaking free from pigeon-holes and mainstream pop culture. Electronic music had become the new classical music of a generation.
I can only say that electronic or computer music has evolved beautifully in the past 40 years and I love it as much now as the day I first heard John Peel play fantastic American imports.
I'm not anything more than a bedroom DJ and electronic music enthusiast. I have the greatest admiration for those who DJ publicly and seek to build a following or career from DJing, but that’s not a path I’ve tried to follow. I do love to put together great tunes, so for me using this sort of platform for sharing music is perfect for me. I do mixes both on my decks and using Ableton, as sometimes I find it easier to create a journey through that medium. 
As for making music, I’m slowly finding my way around Ableton in order to bring life to the musical ideas rolling around my head. 
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the mixes I post, please give me some feedback and if nothing else, support the artists themselves and buy their music.
