APNEA 029EP
|
Based on the sounds produced by Xpansul & Imek for their "La Salud" track, three friends of the Apnea family make their own interpretation of the dubby sounds of the original. Pfirter & Grindvik's remix is a pure techno track, a peak-hour dancefloor killer that maintains the deep soul of the original, adding muscle and energy. Marko Fürstemberg's reinterpretation is state-of-the-art dub, warm and big. Finally, From Karaoke To Stardom delights his fans with his dark, hypnotic and minimal sound.

Apnea continues their collaboration series with an amazing house-y dub EP by Brendon Moeller and David Kennedy (Ramadanman). Excess is a tribute to dancefloor hedonism, a shared project between two of the most respected producers in the electronic music scene. We need more of this, no doubt.

"El Bienestar is collaboration between one of the Spanish techno pioneers, Xpansul, and Imek. Their friendship started long ago: Imek's first DJ set was in the club where Xpansul was the resident DJ, and 10 years after that their friendship generated a common musical project. This project started some months ago, when they composed together '23,' a track that was included in the second NET28 compilation. It was a powerful and engaging experience, so they decided to join forces and produce a full shared release, El Bienestar, where both could explore common areas of their musical sensibility. 'La Salud' was the first track they produced for this release: a classic and emotive techno piece with deep chords and driving bass, followed by 'El Bienestar,' a 100% playable DJ tool made with the dancefloor in mind, and 'La Alegría,' a super danceable track filled with Xpansul's characteristic percussion madness."

"Apnea is proud to announce a new release by The Selph, a new upcoming artist that will rock the house with his productions of astonishing quality. With a deep & warm, Detroitish flavour, his tracks hit your heart as they make your feet move. A very nice blend between oldschool and newschool, taken to perfection by From Karaoke To Stardom's remix, the man who is able to take the deepest stuff even deeper. The Selph was born in 1988 in Milan, a stinky place where the most joyful colour you can see is grey. He first got exposed to electronic music at the age of 14 thanks to various friends, listening to albums like Minimal Nation by Robert Hood, Metropolis by Jeff Mills and Sheet One by Plastikman. This man got the taste."

His compositions have been released on Francois K's Wave/Deep Space Media; Third Ear Records, Echocord, Mule Musiq, Leena Music, and Eskimo Recordings.

APNEA 016EP

"Another debut for the Net28 family, this time credited to Imek, a new talent coming from Madrid and one of the creators of the Net28 saga & the man behind the destiny of Apnea, a DJ that has been involved in the best clubs since he was 19 years old, showing a unique talent & exquisite taste. 'Delirios' comes full of rhythm and magnetism, with 2 original tracks and a remix by the king of groove, Tadeo. 'Delirante No Hay Camino' is one of those big techno mutant monsters that are meant to make the summer last forever, a classic in the making that even Alex Under is playing in his live sets! Groovy & deep, emotional & rich in details, it's a long embrace of techno ecstasy. 'Blum Blum' hits you in the same way, building an unstoppable atmosphere of friction & erosion, where frequencies find their own way to express movement. And finally, Tadeo goes basic, delivering a naked refunked rework of 'Delirante No Hay Camino,' stripping it to its core to evoke just rhythm & pure groove. Ace!"

"Jeremy Herpe comes back to Apnea after the magnificent Loopism Opposum, with ¡Datura!, where the wonder boy experiments with the darkest possible grooves. With the precision of a surgeon, From Karaoke To Stardom builds rhythms that breathe with complexity and passion, adding all kinds of effects, blips and samples. 'El Beso Magnético de la Muerte' is a visceral piece of low frequencies, a magnet for the dancefloor. Side B is for 'Diss-A-peer,' an aquatic journey of unknown pleasures."

"The man behind Cyclical Tracks, Tadeo, comes back with three excellent tracks and two loops, an advance of his long-awaited debut album, that will be released on Apnea. With Cosmos, Tadeo redefines the concept of electronic dance music: 'Reflection Nebula 056n' is an emotional journey to the heart of techno; 'Eclipse' is the perfect track for the dancefloor at 5am, Detroitish, elegant and groovy; and 'IO' is the deepest track of the record, very mental and hypnotic. The whole record is a tribute to Detroit and of course, pure quality techno from Madrid."

"Apnea Records is back with Geoff White, the man who inaugurated our label with the now classic Ique. One of the finest American producers, with releases for Ghostly, Traum, Morris Audio, Force Inc., Background and his own Edit Audio, Geoff White (also known as Aeroc) is all about creativeness. If Ique was a dubbier effort, his new release, Sum is a luxurious and baroque techno encyclopedia, still full of groove. Four tracks that deal with techno at its most rich expression, with all kinds of effects, frequencies and melodies drawing a puzzle of rhythms and sounds. Deep & playful, Sum has everything minimal lacks: imagination, quality, a sense of surprise & vitality."

"Best things in life come as a surprise, so when we decided to work on the remixes for Damian Schwartz's 'Ruidos y Frecuencias 1' we did not know the result would be so perturbative. Friendly People & Frivolous dealing with Damian Schwartz's frequencies & noises, and the result is awesome. Alex Under's darkest alias, Friendly People, delivers an extremely hypnotic and abysmal remix, a dark tunnel with no end, where the night becomes techno: a 'fuck the dancefloor' shout! The other rework is done by our beloved Daniel Gardner, aka Frivolous, who has just released his debut album for ~scape, Midnight Black Indulgence, after many great slices for Background and Karloff. His unique style here is rawer, blending house & techno for a full & shaky dance affair, including vocal samples, fatty bass and a diabolic sense of groove, complete with all kinds of furious snippets."

"Damian Schwartz has decided to complete the second installment of his 'Ruidos y Frecuencias' saga, which he inaugurated with the fabulous 'Ruidos y Frecuencias 1' (Apnea008). This new chapter, 'Ruidos y Frecuencias 2' (Apnea012), which has already being praised by Richie Hawtin and his own minimal wild bunch, is all about techno obsession, keeping the same modus operandi: sampling the noises and crackles made by a broken ASF valve preamp, Damian Schwartz readjusts techno coordinates playing his favorite game, that one where he goes deep & mental, showcasing his skills for innovating through mad frequencies, unstoppable rhythms and martial landscapes."

Remixes by Lusine and Tadeo. "It was about time for a tribute to Mr. Alex Under, a tribute to that fabulous Multiplicanciones, a record of such a deepness and beauty that we could not resist the temptation to keep on working on some of those tracks. That's why Lusine and Tadeo are here, to celebrate his sound with this incredible Multipliremezclas 1. Lusine (Jeff McIlwain) is one of the top makers of abstract melodic electronic music, but here he goes seriously techno. To complete this 12", Tadeo goes dirty with his moody & funky motor techno, a continuum flow that is pure ecstasy, groovy as hell... dedicated to you, to us, to everybody..."
