ACKER 038EP
|
Acker Records presents three remixes of a German-Spanish song by Illute. This title, originally released on Las Vegas Records, comes with the organic sound of wind players, vivacious guitars, and hand-made rhythms. The result is an intriguing mélange of verses, refrains, and catchy electronic grooves, taking the listener to a wonderland of bubbling bass lines, bouncy delays, and playful filter modulations. Also Dingdongdilly, a duo from Berlin, manages to create a seamless connection of song structure, crunchy beats, and high-octane club boost.

ACKER 037EP
|
Acker Records presents female Polish skipper An On Bast. Encouraged by the hypnotic chant of sailors, she navigates "Seaman With a Lap Dog" through heavy, rolling waves of sub frequencies. For the minimal groove of "Everything Is Possible" she goes along a dense wall of humming bass and ghostly sound silhouettes. She then leaves the helm to Mollono.Bass., who rigs "Seaman With a Lap Dog" with tight rhythms and navigates into a melodic, glowing bank of fog. "Ferret Stories" leaves the journey in a mood of wanderlust.

ACKER 036EP
|
Thoughtful ballad or rousing dance banger? Organic tone colors or synthetic elegance? Fuji Kureta's Canow EP is everything and a whole lot more. "Rope" is dedicated to the melancholic voice of the singer with subtle string sections and dreamy quotes. The Mollono.Bass remix picks this up, but his script includes distant drums and nocturnal mystery. "Dive" is accompanied by broken beats that change into a straighter and straighter pace. Mollono.Bass crafts a remix for this one that is suitable for prime-time.

Using his unmistakable organic groove, Acker Records bigwig Mollono.Bass lays the rhythmic foundations of "Traumtänzer." Upon it, Ghanaian beauty Ava Asante plays her violin, creating a fantastic crystal palace of sound. René Bourgeois jumps up and down its bright corridors and halls, making the ground shake with his lively rhythms. Gorge adds a subtle, ever-growing build-up of progressive house, which erupts into rolling bass pressure and catchy chord sounds. Finally the Stereo Express remix departs towards dreamy, minimalist soundscapes.

ACKER 033EP
|
Warm tone colors, vivid rhythms and a proper pinch of hit potential vibrate from the grooves of this vinyl by Dole & Kom. Striking up a serenade on their "Quetschkommode," they are obviously inspired by the melodies of South America, complemented by dynamic rhythms. "Home" starts off very minimal, but it is growing bigger and bigger with every beat. On the flip, Mollono.Bass employs his jiggling, offbeat boost and sparking hi-hat cascades, driving the Latino-euphoria of "Quetschkommode" through dubby echo chambers.

Rene Bourgeois spreads out a minimal, inspiring and elegant rhythm to dance to. Elke Brauweiler enchants the listener with her lovely singing which creates the actual atmosphere of "Je Danse." The cheerful lead melody sits somewhere between elevator music and a movie score. Mollono.Bass unpacks his organic percussion repertoire and discreetly nudges the original atmosphere towards rhythmic entertainment. The mix by Dan Caster and Rene Bourgeois lives up to all expectations with an irresistible groove, hypnotic atmosphere and long, dramatic build-up.

Summer is here. It smells like charcoal, grass and sunscreen. It tastes like strawberry ice cream and cold beer. It sounds like this record, on which the Danish Lasse Bruhn Svendsen set pure open air euphoria to music. With "On the Hill" he stacks up layers of juicy synth-arpeggios and cooks them in a groove-stock until they reach their atmospheric boiling point. "The Elephant Cage" is very epic and takes a humorous turn. Finally, Mollono.Bass serves up refreshing versions of both tracks.

ACKER 030EP

Acker presents some extra laid-back dub techno for the open-air season. The "Ganja Tune" from English producer Robot Needs Oil moves somewhere between casual dance steps and relaxed hip-swing. Mollono.Bass bangs the kick drum a little louder, arranges a bouncing groove based on catchy, off-beat chords, and involves the Latin charm of singer Ava. Finally, the last track on this EP comes with dubby delay sounds, a Jamaican-flavored vocal sample and smoky beats: "Pull Up" is a musical invitation for inspired, mind/body relaxation.

Four remixes merge the profound character of the Douglas Greed album KLR into the groove of hand-picked producers. Rundfunk3000 re-design the experimental "Shiver" using their uplifting beats and warm instrumentations, Acid Pauli's version of "Pain" cunningly manages to balance its mood with a percussive cumbia rhythm and a cheerful South American soul. Mollono.Bass create a driving and hypnotic dancefloor interpretation, even escalating into chirping acid. Finally, there is an acoustic song version of "Morning Gloria" from the studio of Mooryc.
