FREUDE 064EP
|
There are of course a whole lotta clubs: you can go in or out, to dance, some go to play football, in some you can smoke and in others you can have a drink. Still, none of them pleases the palate like the Monkey Maffia Music Club directed by Sören Bodner. This EP fairly brims with ideas yet retains a snooty character amidst smart breaks. Added to that is the sorely-missed portion of schlobber-knock and feverishness under the disco ball.

FREUDE 056EP
|
Monkey Maffia wants to make music that means something to people. His competence of variations is a characteristic of the DJ-dervish; yet he now exercises restraint and follows the right track. All three songs on this EP come with a little bit of oomph poured from a cauldron. He develops a kind of ghetto slam sound, drunk on euphoria and the joy of playing music with the courage to experiment. Is that house or techno?!

FREUDE 049EP
|
Sören Bodner alias Monkey Maffia is one-half of the Wighnomy Bros. This is Monkey Maffia unadulterated -- sometimes coaxingly understanding, sometimes psychotic with a thump in the hand and scratching on the head. "Atmospheric Disturbance" is IDM-breaks-techno. It has an affinity for broken sounds with a life-giving timpani along with a unique sound architecture. An electro bouncer in the truest sense of the word.
