Eomac / Lakker

The Irish duo Lakker have a way of showing us how the sound and the spirit of techno has developed beyond just the obvious four-to-the-floor beat. The 22nd FIBER podcast is a good example of fluidity due to the overlapping of form and style in sound as well as in visual design. “Techno for us is more a sound, intensity and feeling rather than a specific pattern. We also wanted to mix this with some of our more UK influences, like some of the interesting rhythms that Funky and Dubstep have produced.”

FIBER Podcast 22 - Lakker

Contributing this week's Hyp mix are Lakker, a duo who have just been announced as the newest members of the venerable R&S stable. The label, which played host to electronic music luminaries such as Aphex Twin, Joey Beltram and Derrick May, will put out a four track EP by the Irish pairing in March. The announcement marks a continuation of Lakker's fine 2013, which saw them drop EP's on Stroboscopic Artifacts and Canada Rising, whilst also finding a selection of their tracks included in recent sets by the latterly mentioned Aphex Twin.

Although rooted in Berlin leaning Techno, Lakker have frequently demonstrated a willingness to mix things up that places them comfortably amongst the famously experimental ranks of their new label-mates. Finding room for the likes of spaced out Warp rapper/produce Jeremiah Jae alongside Motor City machine funk merchant Robert Hood, the mix takes in all manner of styles whilst retaining a sleek flow. With two cuts from the forthcoming R&S EP finding their way into the latter half, Hyp 164 is an hour of exciting music from two producers on the up.

RSMIX004 - Lakker

As part of Lakker alongside production partner Dara Smith, Ian McDonnell has been exploring various forms of music for the best part of a decade, with the Dublin-based pair becoming an increasingly prominent name in techno circles over the past few years. It was perhaps their 2011 Killekill debut Spider Silk where Lakker's heavily atmospheric, dark and broken brand of techno really began to crystallise, and the pair have subsequently gone on to grace the likes of Stroboscopic Artefacts, Blueprint, Candela Rising and most recently R&S Records.

Away from Lakker, McDonnell has also been devoting time to building up a solid discography under the solo guise, with several high-profile releases over the past year for The Trilogy Tapes, Code Is Law, and the Candela Rising and Killekill labels he clearly has a strong working relationship with. Indeed, the latter Berlin-based label seem very pleased to be releasing Spectre, McDonnell's debut album proper as Eomac next month. To toast its impending arrival, McDonnell agreed to mix up a selection of tracks for our podcast series which begins and ends with Lakker cuts and crams in material from his forthcoming Eomac album alongside material from Streetwalker, Evian Christ, Actress, JT '$tinkworkz' Stewart, Voices From The Lake and more.

Fresh from a launch party for Lakker's R&S debut Containing A Thousand, McDonnell was kind enough to answer some questions about the forthcoming Eomac album, his various current and forthcoming projects and dealing with celebrity fans. You can read that here: http://bit.ly/QeRPj1

After his album release on Berlin’s Killekill very recently and subsequent EP for Stroboscopic Artefacts, Ian McDonnell is a very busy man. Having being requested to play at Boiler Room in July with Function, Henning Baer, Cassegrain and Born In Flamez, Eomac is also one half of duo Lakker. He continues to consistently impress with an obscure and abstract take on techno that landed a huge track named “Spoock” in 2013. The Exclusive mix journeys through weird electronic soundscapes to industrial techno and beyond, tracks by Positive Centre, Mondkopf, Talker, Dronelock, AnD, James Ruskin, Stanislav Tolkachev, Caustic Window and more…

Podcast #27 comes from Eomac under his alias EeOo, which he is also using for his upcoming release on Killekill's Vanta Series.
EeOo is a side project for what is, in Eomac's mind, straight up, techno-rave-house-jungle-disco influenced, dancefloor material. It draws influence from classic styles of dance music. Less dense, less conceptual than the Eomac-music. Less focussed on texture and atmosphere; a more direct approach for sweaty ravers and moving bodies. 
His mix for our series proves just that. Enjoy it!

Newtype Rhythms #21 - Special Guest: Eomac

We are delighted to celebrate our 3rd anniversary with the Irish dj & producer Eomac (Killekill / R&S Records).

Eomac is one of Ireland’s most forward-thinking and experimental DJ and producer.
The Irish electronic music producer Ian McDonnell a.k.a Eomac (and one half of duo Lakker) has rightfully conquered a global audience with his athletic ability to merge digital beats and sensitivity. 
His eerie productions have attracted the likes of labels such as: Stroboscopic Artefacts, Bedouin Records, Trilogy Tape and Killekill amongst others and he has also gained acclaim as one half of Lakker (with Dara Smith aka Arad). 
A jack-of-all-trades would be an apt description of Eomac’s many artistic endeavors; label boss of his own Eotrax, radio host, DJ, producer, artist and musician all fit within his job description. 
His latest creative foray on Eotrax saw him invite a eclectic host of musicians into his studio, ranging from techno maverick Paula Temple to multi-instrumentalist Seán Carpio.
To put all of this into perspective, Eomac cut an exclusive mix for our series that pairs his recent material with artists that are similar in sound and spirit.
Have a good listening.

With this podcast we introduce Dubliner Ian McDonnell alias EOMAC to you, who also delivers our upcoming record KILLEKILL 012 which will be released in early April, 2013.
Ian is one half of LAKKER, who also released on Killekill (as well as on blueprint and many other labels), but also with his solo productions he has proven himself as one producer to watch. His sound design is extreme and unique. He creates dense atmospheres and fills them with subtle melodic elements, pushes them forward with heavy basslines and markable, definitely unconventional drum programming.
With club play by no less than Aphex Twin amongst others, EOMAC is a name that is on the verge of exploding onto the scene.
SPOOCK, his release for our label displays the wide range of styles EOMAC can combine, and so does this dj mix.

Tune in and enjoy!

KILLEKILL PODCAST #14: EOMAC

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > www.inverted-audio.com/lakker

Ian McDonnell and Dara Smith are Lakker. They're based in Dublin and have been producing together for the past decade. After releasing their debut album 'Ruido' in 2007 it wasn't until 2011 when they released their follow up record 'Spider Silk' on the Berlin based label Killekill. 'Spider Silk' helped open them up to Berlin's thriving techno scene as well as James Ruskins highly revered Blueprint imprint and Love Love Records.

Following their remix of Dadub's track 'Path'on Stroboscopic Artefacts', Lakker now return to the label with 'Monad XIV' for their first full release on Stroboscopic Artfacts. We caught up with Ian and Dara ahead of the release of 'Monad XIV' and discuss their new record as well as becoming part of the Stroboscopic Artefacts' crew. We also look back at their musical heritage, influences and their most poignant moments to date.
