about

ELON is certainly no stranger to the dance-floor, as his previous releases on Metroline, Made to Play and his own ReSolute label whole heartedly prove. Thick sonic attributes, mining basslines and hypnotic drums characterise the essence of this industrial leaning EP - a perfect fit, then, for this fresh label.

The EP kicks off with the almighty thud of Azone, which comes equipped with two strong remixes from already anointed label affiliate Marco Faraone and the much saught after skills of Marco Zenker. The original versions mix of heavy instruments and deep aesthetics makes it a stand out track of the moment, evoking memories of Octave Ones groove and rhythm, not to mention its raw, untreated analogue feel. Lots of oscillating basslines and perky percussive elements, all of which are stripped back on Faraones interpretation, stripping apart the major chord buzz into a hollow, lurking track that builds at a menacing pace before unleashing full acid stabs and blasts.

Munich's Marco Zenker brings a bleaker tapestry, with the first minute of the track building in atmosphere and melody.., before bringing the beats through a hazy veil of shrouded mystery and muted mastering.

The EP is then bolstered by two more original ELON productions, both showing the Brooklyn based DJs production prowess in abundance; Ten - with it's jittery rhythm, electro boogie overtones and acidic hypnotic rhythm - stands as warehouse techno at it's finest, most futuristic style.

Meanwhile, the closer, Bare Feet, progresses from the open bars of a cymbal and hi-hat combo into sub-bass led, warming deep house groove, a plucky and groovy live bass sample instigates the drop, led by a tempo shift and wobbling FX and sharp EQ'd mixing. The quality of this release shows that the scene in New York City is burning as strongly as ever.
