RELEASE DATE
6/5/2012
This is the debut album from both the
Tensnake
co-run label Mirau and
Iron Curtis
. Three years and a string of releases on Retreat, Kolour and Mule Electronic, remixes for
Jacob Korn
,
Ripperton
and
Mano Le Tough
and a move to Berlin later,
Johannes Paluka
alias Iron Curtis has matured enough as a producer to take on the heavy burden of a "house music" album. Of course, the man has earned his four-to-the-floor stripes navigation between deep house and soulful techno leanings, but he has also managed to steer clear of genre silt. Thus, the task of creating a coherent, yet amusing album without blinkers is passed with distinction here.
Soft Wide Waist Band
has it roots firmly planted. It streaks all the places and spaces in the past, present and future: the basic knowledge of engineering skills honed in New York, Chicago and Detroit left its traces here as much as a touch of British freewheeling mixed with the flow and indie poetry of a German country boy who has heard of electronic pop music before (guess who sang all those lovely vocal bits on the album?). While tracks like "Inner Glow" romanticize a road trip on a Midwest interstate and "Horses" offers a ride for DJs like
James Holden
and
Dixon
alike, you will meet pieces like "The Sun" that tickles the soul boy and girl in all of us, wonky, slow-motion masterpieces ("Planetarium") or the dreamy pop beat of the album's eponym. Whatever his secret is in wandering the narrow path between the norm and its deviation, Iron Curtis seems to be able to do it blindfolded. Includes mp3 download.
