IFEEL 089EP
|
Inexplicably, yet true, Lexx has never appeared in any way, shape, or form on International Feel recordings -- until now. And it's been worth the wait. Into the Stream is one of the finest endeavors of the Zurich record hound, DJ, musical mastermind, and Balearic baron to date. Bespoke for International Feel, it feels like a comforting blanket for hard times. Inspired by early '90s electronica and serene landscapes, the title track embodies those magical moments just before sunset on warm summer days -- a light breeze carrying the sweet scent of earth as you cycle past a peaceful herd of white, black, and brown sheep moving in unison. Revisiting stages of faith and devotion of one of the favorite bands of nearly every 1980s teenager, and using their formal vocabulary after a deep dive into their rich discography, Lexx delivers a respectful nod and a heartfelt bow, one that is not only a question of lust, but simply irresistible. Last, but not least, Abun-dance is a celebration of life and love. It manages to tap into the stream and discover the true abundance of the (Balearic) bliss that surrounds us.

PERMVAC 018EP
|
2007 release. Zurich-based Lexx (also known under his more house-oriented alias Kawabata) is one of the key figures in the ever-growing nu-disco scene. A sure shot on the floor, "Axis Shift" is an absolute space boogie bomb. On the flip, "El Sueño Lúcido" is a psychedelic Balearic affair with mesmerizing guitar.
