PERL 092CD
|
The distance from Ricardo Villalobos' last field trip Thé au Harem d'Archimède (PERL 043CD) in 2004 to the present epic album is a galaxy of electronic expression through sound, independent from time and space. It is said that funk is defined by the notes that are not being played. The space between the notes here is so vast, that funk becomes transformed into the spirit that creates unfathomable emotional adventure. The rules of dynamics between 0 and 1 shift the relation from reality to relaxation. Previously-unreleased, mixed, free-floating sessions are made out of natural, secret ingredients from the limbic system of astro-Aztecs. They evolve from rituals, ending in the release of the sinuous percussion ghost from the machine who breathes out a score for easy living, which sounds like a primordial soup aerosol of funky molecules and molluscs. The CD version is a continous mix, although slightly shorter. The vinyl edition comes in three parts and contains a total of 14 tracks.

PERL 069CD
|
2012 repress, originally released in 2008. This is minimal master Ricardo Villalobos' second full-length release for the Perlon label. Following the last two 12" Vasco releases featuring "Minimoonstar," "Electonic Water" & "Amazordum" (containing remixes on the B-sides by Shackleton, San Proper & Baby Ford), this CD contains the full-session mix of "Minimoonstar" (32 minutes long!) as well as a CD-exclusive bonus track entitled "Skinfummel." You know, it is most important to get into the flow. This is quite possibly Villalobos' most experimental dance music to date, driving home his ever-widening philosophy that when styles have fallen into oblivion, when dance is subliminal, when positions don't matter, when discussions have faded, when every substance has been dropped, when everyone is free of inert mass, when the set-up is cleared of significance, then mindset and music will float freely. The journey of the most successful explorer, the commander of a floating ship starts from a pool full of nutritionally-dense ideas, a primordial soup filling a feel tank -- as opposed to a think tank. Moves that make a jam session -- that's how to begin when entering and establishing new playgrounds, designing organic technologies, expanding universes. There's enough space to place countless seeds of sense, causing the joint communication between the players of the jam to flower out. The players of these jams are the many spirits of Ricardo Villalobos. His philosophy of the flow of absolute sound is in full evolution here, and this is 70 minutes worth of pure bliss.

"First part of Ricardo's new contribution for Perlon entitled Vasco EP. Two original compositions by mister Villalobos that get remixed on the B-sides by Shackleton and San Proper. 'Minimoonstar' on the first record gets a special underwater treatment by ex-Londoner Shackleton (Skull Disco). On the A-side, we find a special 12" edit of the original to make it fit on wax. This time the remix gets delivered by Amsterdam-based San Proper, who is known for his superb releases on Rush Hour."

SED 000EP
|
"Ricardo Villalobos with his first 3x12" production as recording artist and actual record label programmer. SED might be a one time venture working completely solo, but one thing can already be said: it's one to remember. Four tracks right off his recent Fabric 36 compilation, plus three new bonus tracks. Each recording stands uniquely on its own but also works yet again in a subtle context with all other tracks. An artistic statement as well as pure dancefloor mayhem! One of the strongest packages that we received in a long time. Or in other words: 'authentic work of an artist, if not an authentic work of art -- and definitely worth a spin.' --Resident Advisor"
