  • Bio

    "Out of the murky depths of a decaying post-industrial landscape comes the dystopic musical vision of one Roman Stange. His music is a primordially dark, slightly off-kilter take on abstract techno, replete with eerily distant voices and concrete-ish textures it would seem to hint at a teutonic pedigree of some sort. Though raised just north of Detroit (the birthplace of American techno), Stange cut his musical teeth in and around Boston and has become a staple of the city's computer music underground as a member of both the Lollygagger and Toneburst collectives. Always compelling, but never comforting." Suzanna Bolle (Xlr8r, grooves, the weekly dig) ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... Roman Stange is the dark horse of the Auralism stable in more ways than one. Experiencing techno's birth in the 80's Detroit, as a teenager, Stange has soul and techno music in his blood. In the early 90's Stange emerged on the other side of the techno underground with a penchant for immersive soulful sound scapes ringing to a 4/4 beat. After relocating to Boston, Roman quickly began pushing the shaded experimental underbelly of electronic music—minimal, IDM, and industrial—against the city's prevailing indie rock scene, performing leftfield live PAs with the renowned Toneburst & Lollygagger collectives, which also included Hrvatski (Keith Whitman Fullerton), DJ C, Mr. In Ter Rupt , Soplerfo, DJ/Rupture, and ESP. Based in San Francisco since 2006, Stange has come out of retirement and has taken up the West Coast's vibrant dance-floor culture as his personal call to arms, hearkening back to his Detroit roots to create immersive, psychedelic groovers blooming with mechanized soul. Romans Paratroupr Ep was released on Auralism in 2008, with remixes by Dave Aju, Elon,  and Jason Short.  Roman remixed Rift, Mossmoss, Lemonade, Lilofee, Deadseal, and Frank Johnson & Pepe German.  Roman's originals and remixes have been charted by  Damian Lazarus, Jonas Kopp, Habersham, Elon, Kenneth Scott, and Alland Byallo.  Roman is also one half of Luther Mandross with Jason Short and one half of Sinthe with [Kontrol]'s Craig Kuna. Since January 2008 Roman has DJ'd gigs with Lee Burridge, Elon, Franklin De Costa, Pan-Pot, Stewart Walker, Drumcell, Agaric, Thomas Melchior, Josh Wink, Acid Circus, Speedy J  and many others.  All the while assisting in the duties of promotions  at Auralism Records.  Which includes a successful residency at the Auralisms' Lil Brthr monthly in San Francisco and Auralisms' internet radio show Comfort Sessions on Proton Radio.  In October of 2008, Roman DJ'd at the South American Music Conference in Quito Ecuador, along side Jason Short and Marco Carola.  Now for 2009........... www.auralismrecords.com www.myspace.com/romanstangesanfrancisco DJ Booking contact: romanstange@auralismrecords.com .... ...... "At the moment I am inundated with rock stuff that I need to listen to, ponder and then wax poetic about. However, in the meantime before tackling this sysiphean task I am dragged back into abstract electronic territory by a gentleman by the name of Roman Stange. Stange is a Michigan native who arrived in San Francisco via Kurdistan and Boston. Being from that mid-western state he has that magical touch for techno inflected strangeness, or is it Stangeness? You decide. Anyways, he gave me a dvd with some toons on it, and quite a few of them were well good, but one kinda jumped out at me in a big way. I gave him a call to enquire about the name of it and it is his remix of Lemonade’s “Big Weekend.” It’s a loping, rolling technoid thing with touches of the original vocals and bass-line and some drifting dislocated synth sounds that bring it into an outer orbit. This coupled with incessant, tough, stripped down drums that evolve effortlessly into elements of the original’s more staccato rolls make this track perfect for arranging the dance floor into some semblance of order before shaking it up again with a stirring a bass break culled, once again, in whole from the band’s own version. A dirty, grungey sound coupled with some crisp textures and percussion elements make this track a winner for the AM come down, or for pushing the floor forward while not being too pushy about it, but effectual enough to maintain movement. That’s a feat in itself and Stange seems to be able to achieve it fluidly. That his beats are way funky is a welcome addition to his capacity for brain tickling oddness. Keep an eye on this guy, and his Auralism imprint, which is also home to the likes of Alland Byallo, Clint Stewart and Jason Short. To top all this off Stange's down-tempo tracks are equally involving and mesmerizing, making you sway gently while projecting a lush yet quietly unsettling sense of empyrean elevation. Stange is one element, one voice, in San Francisco, that is pointing the way forward to the post-minimal, post electro, post-post-post punk event horizon which we are silently but relentlessly approaching. I think we’re going to hear more about this guy, in fact I hope so." Orr (BANANASPAM!) ...... ...... .................. Artist: Voodeux?Title: The Parnormal Remixes? Cat-N°: MSHIP026?Release date: October, 2009 The Paranormal was one of the creepiest albums of 2009 and now we have the remix pack just in time for Halloween.

This is the perfect song to get bodies moving at any open-air or sunny after-hours session. ....Deep Bled.... is a moodier cut with a cloud of harmonies surrounding pulsating rhythmical melodies. ..Deep Bled.. sounds halfway between a deep Detroit track and one of those rare and epic journeys crafted by the South American techno prodigies. On ..Roman Stange's.. ....Femoral Dub Cut...., Roman strips the original down to its bare essentials, keeps the strong tonal elements, but structures them in a way that they progress one into the other, making for the perfect after party builder. For the final track, ..Clint Stewart.. and ..Dead Seal.. come together to remix ..Deep Bled... They dug out the hidden grit and bounce, and brought it right to the front of the sound spectrum. The result is a late-night warehouse-ready beater with heady textures and grimy rhythmical-splashes... ....1. ..Dredging.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... 2. ..Deep Bled.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... 3. ..Deep Bled (Roman Stange's Femoral Dub Cut Rmx).... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... 4. ..Deep Bled (Clint Stewart and Dead Seal Rmx).... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... ....Click here.. for more info.... .. .. ..Mossmoss - Eating Glass- NLMX003 - Click HERE For The FREE Download!.. ...... ...... Roman Stange's latest for Auralism embraces warped, radiant melodies and house music roots, all framed in different contexts. The original mix of Paratroupr sits atop a 4/4 chassis, but with programming that is more IDM-styled in construction. Bright pads -- seemingly culled from a classic house tune and then cut up and reconfigured, bounce and undulate above a layer of static while sinewy textures play over the straightforward kick. The minimal mix reduces the sonic elements and warps the proceedings further into leftfield and with both versions, the strength lies in the interplay between the abstract and the immediate. With his remix, Elon transforms the track into straightforward, ambient-tinged house with plenty of percussive nuance, and San Francisco producer Dave Aju turns in a cut that works equally well in headphones as it does on the floor, emphasizing vivid spatial elements -- a jagged, simple bass line, jazzy hi-hat shuffle, and ethereal pads floating in the top of the mix. ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ......
