repress - derral presents his >deep mysteries ep<

our exploration of ballet mechaniques old dat archives, stack full of unreleased material from the 90 s era, continues with our sixth release and materializes into the third volume of the 1992-1999 collection series. like the previous two volumes of the series did, also this ep brings to lights the diverse and varied approach of jeroen s productions: an a side featuring more ravey and uplifting tunes, and a b side focused on funk fuelled electro and idm.

our third release comes from alex picone an artist and early supporter of our label that we deeply respect for his many skills both in the studio and in the dj booth, and his musical approach that allows him to stay away from trends and clichés. the 3 tracks contained in this ep have been road tested in alex’s live at hoppetosse back in february and weekly dj sets and for us they represent the peak of his relentless audio research into achieving his best mix and eq’ing, so much so this ep comes to you without any audio mastering, recorded straight out from alex’s gear.

new imprint ocd’s first release comes from portland native aaron carlson who, with his ac$ alias, has generated quite a buzz in underground circles of late, off the back of a few highly sought-after records. ‘do u know what u represent?’ is a slice of rolling tech-house that utilises vocal snippets amidst a flurry of 909 hats while the rhodes-laced ’more odds’ dials up the swing with a nod to early prescription releases. on the b side, ‘just like you’ is a more heady affair, seeing lazy chords sitting over a nebulous bassline and assorted weirdness, while the acid-tinged, atmospheric ‘organ morph’ is sure to find favour with fans of binh or nicolas lutz.
