Turbo
Recordings...Hot
on the heels of his Grammy nominated single "Sysiphos" ,
the mysterious d.i.m. returns with an even more good second 12inch
on the newly profitable Turbo Recordings. "Airbus Baby" is
a lethal techno weapon that must be handled with care, and the
first track to sample "crows" since the shamefully underrated "Crow-Dance" by
the Dutch rap-metal outfit Ruud Hollywood.
In
truth, i don't even know what d.i.m. looks like.... he might
even be really hairy....in which case he would never have been
signed to my label..... i also don't even know what his voice
sounds like, he might be a "low-talker"....for all
i know he could be like the German version of Gregory Hines (R.I.P.)....
but what i do know is that every few months he sends us a track
of dancefloor-napalm that fuses cut-up-nu-rave with Teutonic-tech-wave...all
while STILL maintaining a subtle Minimal-flava....AND a Midimal-vibe,
and trust me that's not easy to do.
The
main cut is "Airbus Baby" an emotional journey through
something. I debuted this track at Cocoon Club in Frankfurt and
it caused such carnage I thought I might be tried at the International
Groove-Crimes Tribunal for
Crimes
Against Dancefloor Sanity ; Sven Vath BEGGED me for a copy, but
I said no...not YET Sven, these radioactive rythms are still
too "unstable" my
brother, this dancefloor-dioxyn needs time to settle. I don't
think he actually was listening.
After
the mega-selling (and often sampled) "Sysiphos" (check
2ManyDJs incredibly relevant mash up" "Sysyphosympathy
For The Devil's Haircut") , the braintrust at Turbo knew it
would take a special package to follow up......so we needed a b-side.
That's when he sent us "Frogger"...... and that's when
i said "Ribbbip, Ribbip". This sonic Amphibious
attack can rock land.....AND water based parties. This B-side is
PURE "B-Side"!!!!
So that's it....2 amazing tracks of modern techno, by a mysterious
genius....all packaged in the new Turbo 2007 artwork, made with
love in sunny Montreal, via Germany.....delivered to you almost-free
of charge.
love
