Vinyl Releases
french dj and producer, sebastien san, whos been releasing house records under one name or another for about a decade, has taken the next big step forward in his lauded career and started his own label. after releasing material through a venerable whos who of labels like planet e, poker flat, rush hour, we play house, and echocord, it only makes sense that sebastien take matters into his own hands and helm an operation independently. the imprint, cheekily called ab initio, will predominantly function as a vehicle for the man to put out his own records.

nice price deal !!! no frills, just thrills. sebastien san is back on his own ab initio imprint. time does fly when you are having fun, so this is already the sixth release of the series. and there is no hostages being taken here, because what you get is three straight bangers for darker and deeper dance floors, with that trademark sebastien san jack always keeping your feet and ears busy. >adrastea< kicks things off dark and dubby, churning away in devastating fashion for a full 12 minutes. one can easily imagine djs destroying berghain with this one. flipping over to the b-side we first find >120 bpm<, a track rooted in oldskool chicago jack with a healthy dose of claps and flangers that will be very hard to resist. closing the e.p. is >arp madness ii<, a very worthy follow-up of >arp madness<, which was a standout track on ab initio 02. intricate and devastatingly effective dance floor music.
