CIRKLON/RYTM/106/DRM1/FX

used the leftovers of last weeks track. same but different.
studio cleaning and rearranging today. satisfying but annoying

That Vermona feels like a 505/707 or are there other samples involved?

The vocal stabs give it a vague '90s flavour that's really enjoyable. Pretty hipnotic structure, would work perfectly in the darkness of the club, for sure

...ah, funny...there is a vermona drm1, didnt know. but its this korg drummodule: http://www.drummachines.de/beatboxer/be … rgdrm1.htm
thats where the 707ish sounds are coming from...laguna knows his tools, has ears like a pro! the 90s flavor is because i am old, and got probably stuck in some dark foggy rave basement just like pac man ; ) i am again stunned by your analysis...you already hit the nail with my references/coordinates before. some good profiling there...whats your profession?
danke+gruß d.

Ich bin ein helikopterpilot, aber I'm also rooted in the nineties, man. I think we share some musical background and gear taste.

I always dig your sound palette. You take the basic Detroit tools and give them your personal twist. Danceable yet dark. I love deep house and the like as much as the next guy, however I love when techno does
not get lazy and walks through the experimental road smile

Meine Deustchsprage isn nich sehr gut, entschuldigung

However. I like your minimalism. Creating maximal tension.
Very nice track.

That updated Bo Diddley beat really holds the whole piece together. Like the vocal snips too.

Also the harmonic stasis.

Just now had the time to seriously listen to the track. I love the haunting synths so much!!! I would buy it in an instance and will definitely play it soon at parties! Probably my fave weeklybeats-track so far!

Whoa this track has a really old school feel. Really digging this one!

This is brilliant!  Vocal stabs fit perfectly and love the swirling synth and pulsing beat, maybe it's because I am also perpetually trapped in the 90's

So great, how you mostly create your weekly conributions auf den letzten Drücker, at the eleventh hour, an always end up in a both oh so stimmungsvollen, atmospheric and rhytmically beeindruckenden, impressive beautiful and stimmungsgeladenen Song. Complimentomayor.

this is great, im downloading it asap, looking forward to next week

yeah totally loving how much space you give this. i have tried this so many times and always end up with overloaded, semi-catchy crap. hut ab.

haha he strikes again. The beginning had me leaning one way then those synths kick in then bam those detuned synths shbam then comes in the kick! This is something id rave hard to! Could you be my father??

I love the synths, drums, and the little vocal licks! One of the screams was James Brown right? I swear it's him going "Uh!".

thanks oso feo! true, the "uh" is by JB. "lost our minds" by Khalid Abdul Muhammad. both some overused/cliché samples.

Geil !! big_smile

you still go clubbing? the few times i went clubbing with some spanish friends (90ies you guessed it!) was pretty serious business. so probably not you have to fly them copters on monday morning... ; )

thank you for checking and commenting on my music! ich find deine intimen akustischen excursions an der grenze zwischen klangforschung und traditionellem songwriting großartig. thanks!

I'm afraid I am not a clubber anymore... in fact, I never was very much into it. Guess I'm more of a techno geek, "trainspotting" near the dj booth, browsing through white labels . I still do dig for records. Beatport is great but there's nothing like finding some hidden gem out from a dusty crate of vinyl.

I was out a few nights ago, but I guess I'm a little bit old to hear some stuff and "freak out" like those EDM kids. No disrespect to them, but I'm not confortable in the late "dj's as rockstars" mood. Ideologically, I'm in the "Underground Resistance" point of view. Miss some techno and house parties here in Madrid, though as a producer, I'm into the slow/experimental/80 bpm side of things.

I personally would like to mix the experimentation of Ritchie Hawtin's "Minus" or "Close to the edit" era with slow fat beats. Still listening to minimal, also. I think you'd like Jon Convex and Tillander AKA TS-404.

And BTW, I think I've  downloaded most of your stuff through the years. I remember WB'14 smile
