TURBO 192EP
|
Turbo Recordings present a release a full year in the making, Gender. Gender embodies the adventurous spirit of Thomas Von Party's Multi Culti label, and marks a return to mega remix packs with alternate dub reworks. Germany's Skinnerbox sets the template with a high-speed jungle rave banger, which is an accurate enough description but not something we would expect you to ever repeat out loud. The 12" also features versions by Swedish nice guy Axel Boman, who turns in a 12-minute epic jam, and Glasgow's Auntie Flo, who somehow harnessed the siren song of the iPhone with a marimba-heavy mix.

TURDJR 007EP
|
This is Skinnerbox's first release on Treat Your DJ Right. On Love Songs for the Broken Arpeggiator EP, the two Berliners Olaf Hilgenfeld and Iftah Gabbai celebrate their own vision of modern dancefloor music in four epic tracks. All the music is based on the beat while the sound ranges from acid fragments, over-hypnotic, extensive melodies, and modern club beat. Do we need anything else? Don't think so.

BPC 243EP
|
This is Skinnerbox's second BPC release. On this EP, the two Berliners Olaf Hilgenfeld and Iftah Gabbai celebrate their vision of modern dancefloor music in four epic tracks. Their sound ranges from Skinnerbox's trademark -- live avant-jazz fragments -- to extensively atmospheric melodies to opulent electro compositions. The surprisingly catchy tracks are effortlessly held together with an aggressive house beat, which even turns the jazzy, crazy homage to Coltrane entitled "Jupiter Variations" into a floor-filler.

BPC 234EP
|
This wild, uninhibited mix of avant-jazz, funk, electronica, and disco beats has become an insider tip within the scene in record time, and a short while later, the two men and a Minimoog are rocking Berlin's hottest clubs. After releases on TonKind, Neopren, and Bar25 Records, please give a standing ovation to Skinnerbox. "Purgatory Five" begins with a twisted melodic figure which is then quickly overtaken by a calmly pulsating house beat and moody, minimal melodies with a sweeping harmonic series.
