ORB 026EP
|
Uppsala's Crystal Fake lives as a Swedish expat in Rome, where he produced his smashing track, "Weekday Trip" -- a real solid piece that grows on you with every listen. The heavy orchestral structure and rolling beat reminds one of the good old days of melodic trance fashion. The flipside offers a brand new Martinez remix that gives the track a different flavor, taking it down to the bone and adding some organic touches and body language style pads. Expect it to be huge. This has already done heavy damage on several international dancefloors.

Whether you call it morning house or cosmic techno music, Each has got all of it and more in this dew-sprinkled hypnotic daybreak study. "Sunrise" works as a powerful meditation after a night of harsh beats where the warm analog bass-line, the glistening squirls, the silicone synths and the emotive pads mingle together to create a panoramic picture. Gold-tinged rainbow vibes. On the flip, Minilogue, rising new stars of today's minimal scene, are doing some serious reworking of the original. With their version of "Sunrise," the track is stripped down to its barest bleeps and blips and given a most mighty jacking beat that grows and grows until things start to go a bit random.

Germany's Phil Stumpf is back on Triple-O with Cut EP. This time we are treated with a contemplative but bouncy Motor City serenade. Warm pads, a lively, jumping rhythm and beautiful melody makes you want to play this "Cut" more than once. The flipside gives us a live bass-driven schaffel groove that transports you into the merry company of fearsome stick-fighting martial artists. On the remix-tip is Rui Da Silva, a producing legend that has been around since the early days with big releases as Underground Sound of Lisbon. Rui gives us a minimal but heavy avant-garde treatment with one of the most mental and drugged-out drum tweaks you've heard in years.

ORB 001CD

This is the Out of Orbit label's first CD release, providing a comprehensive and exciting mega-mix of their musical catalog, mega-mixed by DJ, producer and label-boss, Martinez. Techno has always been a musical genre driven by novelty and technology. Fast kicks and new sounds, feelings and experiences are what we cherish. The ability to project the listeners "out there" into the final frontiers of space and sound has always been the goal of all extraordinary techno music. To simply make a "normal" mix CD was never an option for Out of Orbit. Using cutting edge technology and displaying in what direction the future of mixing might take, Triple-O presents Restructured Layers, for people who have been looking for a way to enjoy their music in a comfortable way without getting into vinyl. Perfectly geared to fit in between both a sweaty club experience and a nice home listening session, this CD brings out the best of both worlds. This CD is an extension of Martinez' acclaimed DJ gigs, bringing you a world-class mix experience. With all their releases cut up into loops and pieces, Martinez has woven a beautiful and intricate carpet of sounds, putting two and two together in order to create something bigger and more beautiful than its mere parts: pure alchemy, in other words, with the full CD as a constant mix throughout the full 76 minutes. Blending pieces of up to 7 or 8 different tracks at the same time, you've never heard anything exactly like this, although Richie Hawtin's DE9|Closer To The (R)Edit would be the closest in terms of mixing technology. Triple-O has put down a lot of effort in order to bring you this next-step experience to and they are damn proud of what they have created. Featuring artists Phil Stumpf, Willie Graff & Kyle Errison, Martinez, Nima Gorji, Reynold, Lowtek Soundsystem, Zvukbroda, Dibaba, Mars Fellows, Felix Houzer, Jussi Pekka, Robert Babicz, Trentemøller, Cantrip People and Ibn Al-Khimyia.

"Time to present a new duo here on Triple-O. The Hamburg-based duo; Mars Fellows are DJ Phly & Sebo, aka Philipp Brüning and Sebastian Plehn. Both being very active in the substratum of electronic dancefloor culture with Philipp running his 'Kompass Musik' and playing the international DJ-circuit for playing everywhere from Ibiza to Moscow. Sebo is no newcomer either with releases on labels such as Plusquam, Plastic Park and others under various aliases such as Buzz, Buzzmonx and Timetech. A-sider 'Sin' really is a huge track for us, representing a perfectly good example of how to make an indefinable minimalistic monster that crosses over into almost all camps. Tribalistic drums, an irresistible backbeat groove, minimalistic production, bombs and pyrotechnics in all the right places. As icing on the cake, we get to hear a great elephant noise that has gained this track the infamous nickname 'the elephant track' here at the OOO headquarters. Drop this at a party and watch your dancefloor go zoological when the groove reels them in! Flipside offers some more phunkier flavours in order to calm things down after such a marathon safari hunt."

"Continuing in the footsteps that were laid out in Dark Moon Rising, Martinez is back with a logical sequel. 'Polytone' is a dirty-ass phunkster styled in a irresistible 120 bpm groove with all the right trimmings. The lead hook rips you right up with its strange attractor type movements, performed by some sort of weird horn. 'You think this is real?' I'm afraid not. As we are moving further and further into dreamtime the definition of what's real will be best up to you to decide. Use it for your own well-meaning purposes. But whatever you do, don't stop dancing! The flipside offers us a deeper and slightly more subliminal flavour, in order to balance out the main side. The track 'Bedouins' has been one of Martinez's favourite unreleased tracks for the last year/8 months, a great workhorse that always delivers with its own blend of hypnotic magic wherever it gets aired."

"Since he left us last time, Nima have continued his search for the path of wisdom and beauty and left rainy Copenhagen behind in order to follow his dreams and try his luck at the magical island of Ibiza. Finding himself there, he seems not to have wasted his time, instead Nima have secured a residency at one of the island's most legendary clubs, namely Space. One of the first new songs Nima made on the Island is 'French Connection,' a stunningly beautiful Balearic sundown tune, a perfect cross-over track for the transition from chill-out to the first slow but groovy dance tunes of the night. Nima gives us some beautiful words of wisdom on the importance of being in that mysterious and magical moment which is called NOW. This is the secret door into the infinite. This door can only be found through the most intense concentration on being in the present. Yesterday is already a thousand years away and the future is nothing yet but innumerable cloudy dreams of possible potential."

With remixes by Robert Babicz and Lowtec. "This time we present you with yet another artist from the Copenhagen scene. Jokke Ilsoe have been one of the bigger names on the Scandinavian post psychedelic trance DJ circuit for a long time, and today he regularly plays a lot of the big outdoor festivals in Mexico and Brazil. With a background in producing from projects like 'True To Nature' together with DJ T.O.M. (the sidekick of Trentemoller) amongst others, Jokke is certainly not a newcomer in this game."

"With a split EP showcasing two different but complementary sounds again, we hope there will be something in there for all of you. The A-side is a fierce and heavy dancefloor-burner of rare calibre, sure to rip up some dust in the outdoor season (it sure did last year) whereas the flip showcases some of the most deep, trippy minimal night-time journeys yet. A lot of people talk about trance these days. It has suddenly become the new fashion-word of the moment. Everyone and their mama now admit they've always been influenced by trance, listened to it etc. You all know what we are about here on Out of Orbit, although we haven't been bragging too much about it."
