LIZM 010EP
|
Lessizmore presents It Was a Night Like This EP, a heady adventure from Amsterdam powerhouse San Proper. The title track showcases Proper's gift for fusing organic instruments with electronics and his love of seductive atmospheres. It's the perfect soundtrack to a deadly cocktail in a dimly-lit bar. Maayan Nidam, whose own productions share with Proper's natural, hand-played qualities, and adds the most exquisitely subtle touches of dub and psychedelia to Proper's original. On the B-side, Tom Trago adds Rhodes touches to "Octo-Jive," a woozy journey through fractured rhythms and TV samples, moving fluidly between nocturnal moodiness and soothing harmony.

"Grey-coloured 10"! Lessizmore kick off 2010 with Jin Choi's follow up to the Carnivores EP. His music is supposed to touch emotionally and to move the head and the body as well. This double A is the favorite of Ahmet Sisman, Agoria and Anthony Collins."

LILTD 001EP
|
Red-colored vinyl. "New sub-division Lessizmore Limited is the occasion for us to produce new artists and to release their work in a beautiful colored 10", 500 copy limited pressing for audiophiles. The first release is focused on two new hopes of 2009: Jin Choi and Dop. Jin Choi has released many impressive EPs on Ware, Archipel and Roman Photo. His tracks are subtle, full of details; he looks for instruments and singings you would never expect in a usual dance tune. 'Carnivores' is a long and melancholic trip which cannot let you unmoved. French trio Dop does a complete rework of the track, adding their own voices, some punchy percussions and a pinch of sex appeal. They keep the original vocals and instruments but use it in such a different way that makes it look funnier."

LIZM 006EP

"Between Istanbul and Essen, Ahmet Sisman has been moving through different worlds. Influenced by the mystique music of the Sufi-culture, his sound is combining traditional elements in a unique and post-modern way. Ahmet has created his own style very quickly, thus he released his 2 first EPs on Lessizmore and Stock5 in the beginning of 2008 and he already got the attention of all the big names in the scene. Sven Väth played his track 'Buiya' at Cocoon at Amnesia and finally licensed it for his mix session Sound of the Ninth Season. Ahmet loves melting traditional instruments with new electronic beats, therefore all the tracks here are pushing forward these particularities. 'Esraj' begins with a classical French horn passed in a blur of sounds, later building up the tension with the Indian esraj instrument (sounding like European fiddles) and cheating with deliverance from a subtle rhythm. In the end, a Chinese bowed instrument called erhu closes this hectic trip. 'Loune,' on the second side of the vinyl, is some kind of cinematic travel along Indiana Jones and John Williams epic strings. It directly immerses the listener into a long mental run."

LIZM 005-4EP
|
"Support by : Troy Pierce, Ivan Smagghe, Par Grindvik, Pheek, Oxia, Someone Else, Slam, Makossa, Tim Green, Vincent Lemieux, Chris Carrier, Quenum, Dave Twomey, Jerome Pacman, Fernando Daxta, Dan Drastic. Junction SM takes the lead with one of their most inspired moments. 'Radio Calypso' closes eyes into the imagination. A musically-awakening long track, uniquely mixing ambient beauty, minimalist beats, warm melodies and cosmic energy. A benchmark in moody Detroit techno that transports DJs and heads alike. Peki is a side project of the Berliner duo LiebeIstCool. Their sound is easily recognizable: packed full of flowing grooves, innovative arrangements and tricky melodic twists. It results an instantly addictive piece of contemporanean techno. On the B-side, Seuil's 'Jealous Derviche' rattles and rolls in true Lessizmore dancefloor spirit, shifting in precise yet animated tribal techno. Finally, Pheek's 'Impromptu' sends a driving beat into a sinister yet freaky trip. It takes the record out on a surgical bang, tossing up layers of sick melodies and loops of metallic percussion."
