AOM 003EP
|
Nosuchkey (Nico Purman) makes a bold debut on the Art Of Memory label with a deadly four-track EP of masterfully reduced, but stylish and evocative minimal techno. "Stages" is post minimal techno with a focus on mind melting melodic riffs that ripple over the rooted drums. "FMFMFM" is another fluid bit of deep techno that is wired-up with languid synths constantly wrapping and warping round the drums. "Lunch" is a stripped-back but impactful techno style built on rubbery kicks and modulated synth lines. Direct but dynamic, it is excellently timeless techno that leads on to closer "ACD RDFN".

AOM 002-2EP
|
Berlin-based Argentine producer Nico Purman presents the second EP in a two-part release on his Art Of Memory label. Bass moves the soul while synth and space free the mind. The late 1960s and early 1970s gave us five years of moon missions, the first view of our lonely blue dot, the inspiration of math and science, and new wave science fiction. Purman draws upon this vaulted era to create AOM002. To label AOM002 techno would be tantamount to calling Kubrick's 2001 merely a film or the Saturn V merely a rocket.

AOM 001EP
|
Lying somewhere between New Order, Arthur Baker, and Giorgio Moroder with the benefit of modern ears, Nico Purman continues to shape his ever-evolving vision of sound with his new label Art of Memory and its debut release. Nico drops perhaps his most expansive and melodic work yet, drawing on influences from decades past to produce something both new and honest to former eras. With nods to new wave, techno, and a dusting of Space Odyssey, this 12" express pensive, moving, deep ideas of an electronic yesterday.
