RELEASE DATE
7/5/2011
This is the debut album from Berlin-based duo
Tricksi
, who have already caused some serious damage on the dancefloors with their releases on the infamous imprint Sonar Kollektiv. It's summer 2011 and things are slowing down on the dancefloors. Maximum deceleration with a minimum frictional loss. Filthy suspense-funk at around 115 bpm. And out there at the front of the pack are
Yannick Labbé
and
Daniel "Stoerte" Becker
, the duo better known as Trickski. On their long-awaited debut album
Unreality
, the two Berlin-based producers invoke the mighty power of the slow, shifting groove. The musical duo have come a long, long way since release on the Compost Black label: their original Detroit-inspired sound with its tendency for the grand gesture -- which burst onto the Sonar Kollektiv's traditionally well-ordered nu-jazz parallel universe like a whirlwind -- has evolved into a sinister, shuffle-soul gurgle, filled with tinny percussion sounds, rough samples, and mechanical funk. The 17 tracks on
Unreality
represent the magnificent preliminary result of the slow evolution of the Trickski sound. House music for dark, intimate clubs in which the cold reality of daily life seems suspended for a night. The title is intended as a reflection on a scene that exists in the twilight zone of collective boundary-hopping and escapism weekend after weekend, following its own, often eccentric laws.
Unreality
is not just a reference to nightlife experiences that the two of them wish for -- or those they'd prefer not to acknowledge -- but rather to the unrealities of life in general. The release of this record will definitively catapult Trickski to the forefront of the European house-producer scene. Their debut album also features three of the most distinctive contemporary voices: Suol label mate
Fritz Kalkbrenner
,
Ernesto
from Gothenburg, Sweden, and
Irfane Khan-Acito
from Paris. And the two producers also lend their own vocal talents to some of the tracks. Titanic, peak-time belters such as "Good Time To Pray," "Wilderness" and "Love's A Beat" are followed by sketch-like interludes, which fuse the 17 tracks into a finely-balanced whole. It is, as
Philip Sherburne
once fittingly described the sound of Trickski: "The perfect balance between grinding and glowing."
