Alright? Late shout as ever, but you fancy joining us for
our final London
show?
We’re playing our final London show on Saturday 20th at
Hope and Anchor in Islington. It will be a very messy affair, we promise. Print
off the flyer for cheaper entry on the door.
Samuel Brunel is an upcoming artist from France who released his debut track on Autist. His new EP "Orpheo" is a peak time techno track that will rock all dancefloors! Samuel is a relatively new name on the minimal scene but certainly a name to watch in the new year…
Trained as a pianist, Samuel Brunel became quickly influenced by repetitive music, from Philip Glass to Steve Reich. He began integrating machines into his compositions, and the evocative power and energy of minimal techno fascinated him. He eventually traded his instruments for a computer, which led to various collaborations with classical musicians and filmmakers…
Everything starts with Samuel’s original approach. The track includes rolling percussions with a bassy drive and a lots of dynamic background action that makes this track a real infectious groove… For the first time, Zhao offers a decidedly techno track with a cyclical & bleep touch that will surprise many! Redj’s remix is a minimal techno track deep & dark to get cold in the back… Finally, Zecapx delivers a mental version with sliced leads, a swing bass line and deconstructed samples.
Available 10th april on Juno Download, Nuloop, Dancetracks, Beatsdigital, DJ Download, Finetunes, Bubblebeat, Musicload, Trackitdown, iTunes...
Supported by Laurent Garnier, Misstress Barbara, John Lord Fonda, Xpansul, Re:Axis, Heron, Yan Hendez, Dualism, Joy Kitikonti, Anderson Noise, Mateo Murphy, Stefano Lotti, Mauro Alpha, Gennaro Mas
