TREIB 080EP
|
"Between their triple ignition on Treibstoff and WIR and the preheating process that announces their album release soon on Treibstoff, Shay Raban and Oleg Slepak just add some more fuel to the fire of expectation. As the savagely entitled work accurately promises, the dancing soul is absolutely determined to burn on this new EP. However, it is burning with a glow of an exceedingly cozy fire: the title track is a parcours noir through tingly, emotional worlds. At first endued with syncope-accentuated stumbling blocks, the way to the hidden realm shortly expands like a sweet temptation which is nerved with some harmonically caressing marbling. Permanent murmuring, burgeoning lust and salvation celebrate an adventurous alliance, the electric attractiveness of which is beguiling. 'Mongolian Skies' maintain the humming tension of a pleasantly massaging, celestial current and even intensify this effect of boosting high spirits by means of coherently flashing up, well-proportioned spots. The clear message is: passion and sophistication in the name of body shaking."

WIR 010EP
|
"Shay Raban (DJ Earthian), a virtuoso and versatile DJ and sound technician from Israel and the internationally-active Russian producer Oleg Slepak came to know each other at a desert rave in Colorado in 2002. Based in New York, their mutual project Animaltek is keeping every promise of a highest-level energy transformation. Compared to their almost simultaneously released 12" EP Innocent Robot/Night of Tvarok, Animaltek celebrate a more reduced interaction of rhythmic signals and systems on Karmik Loops, nevertheless displaying the same cautiousness by placing sounds in a high-precision way and still with a discerning ear for the detail. Small groove cycles are reflected in the superordinate concept and vice versa. The machines set up a fertile, pulsating bassplate from which sublime four-fourths and triplet loops ascend to harmonically communicate with each other. They report on the foreordination of club culture which definitely turns out to become romantic. Alice is dancing into a land behind the mirror ball where mass splits in marbled matter. A dual sunset of an iPod metallic-colored spectrum is warming the android beach. Here a plush astronaut witnesses the birth of the Venus of Detroit. Animaltek describe this sensation as 'a powerful effort of self-expression through rhythm, sound and harmony.'"

TREIB 073EP
|
"Shay Raban (DJ Earthian), a virtuoso and versatile DJ and sound technician from Israel and the internationally active Russian producer Oleg Slepak came to know each other at a desert rave in Colorado in 2002. Based in New York, their mutual project Animaltek is keeping every promise of a highest-level energy transformation. Caused by Animaltek's recombination of the strongest signals, syncopes and signa- tures from both prime techno and electro genres, the club evolution creates a new, breathtaking diversity of grooving species. Noise fragments, sounds, loops, vocal commands and subterraneously vibrating bass lines correlate systematically to intertwine accurately, forming vital organisms that pulsate in an elastic, flittering and funky manner. Each of these precisely and dynamically placed rhythm elements represents a unique, psycho-magnetic energy dispenser which is determined to dock with motors, sensors and actuators of humans and robots. Thus, the crowd's vital body parts and sense organs are stimulated individually by driving mechanisms of multifarious functionality. Marching, twitching and flowing merge by interfering with each other -- in a system dominated by the coordinates Liaisons Dangereuses (1981) and intergalactic radio communication (2010)."
