With barely a breath after DMB004 comes another exclusive release from Alexander Kowalskis new label Damage Music Berlin. The 1 inch >Random Pleasure< is the work of Swiss electronic music DJ, composer and producer David Durango. In his numerous releases (Pokerflat & Mescene Records) Durango balances between deep and dark grooves to melodious and quirky dub vibes: here he oscillates between both levels. Starting with the title track, the structure reveals consciously tight and multi-layered percussive hooks under the blanket of a substantial, dreamy bassline. The addition of a subtle, melancholic vocal sample ensures hypnotic effect. >Ambivalus< walks right into a rather old school vibe, gathering strength with ever-increasing, spiraling keyboard stabs reminiscent of earlier rave eloquence that compels certain dancefloor revelry. The flip side sees the title track remixed by Kowalski who treats the matter with his vivacious bite, stretching the voice, injecting a warbled fuzz bass and after a sublime break, enlarges the work to infectious dance dimensions. Respected Frankfurt artist Patrick Lindsey (Terminal M & Funkwelle) remixes the track additionally: he dissects the vocals, keeping the bass and keyboards minimally tight and sharply symmetric for a very mesmerizing treatment.
