.. ..The Allophons 'Bow' Mini-LP .. ..Available now !.. .. .. .. After an edition of approximately 28 slash-up albums regurgitating the entire 20th century of music and beyond, The Allophons present their first E.P. of non-sampled material. All of the trademark Allophons elements are present - the gorgeous vocal swells, understated trance-funk rhythms and twisted melodies. .... This swooper is a beautiful, skillfully sequenced pop nugget. Starting with the dazzling voodoo opera "Bow", the E.P. leads you through the funky outer regions of sound. "Voc Beans" is a disco run by breakdancing midgets, "Who's the Papä" slaps DSP like Mark King used to slap his bass. On the B-Side laptop connoisseur Randomiz and electro-acoustic chef C-Schulz serve your ears with "In the end", a jazzy oddball reminiscent of Thelonious Monk's wacky rhythm arrangements as well as Miles Davis' space pop excursions. Randomiz's well tempered sequencing meets Schulz's vocal extravaganzas in "The Töpfer Singers", a whimsical diamond with dueling layers of vibraphone and jew's harp (played by swiss jew..s harp wizzard Anton Bruhin himself) that slide effortlessly in and out of the mix. The Record's pumping finale is "Elf", also the pumping finale of The Allophons' spectacular live sets. BOW is a full-blown blessing for those of you with turntables: it's pure pop goodness you love, with less of the annoying pops and clicks you don't. .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. ..The Allophons ..Santa Collection Vol. 1 - Vol. 5 ....Available now ! ....The Santa label releases a 10 volume CD-R series of the Alllophons' best recordings. The first five volumes are now available exclusively through the ..sonig mailorder......... ........ .. Santa is proud to announce The Allophons (a/k/a Cologne's experimental masterminds F.X.Randomiz and C-Schulz). Going way beyond the possibilities of common dj-sets, The Allophons have extracted thousands of snippets from tracks across all styles and genres, ruthlessly deconstructed them using the most advanced techniques and blended them into completely new tracks. The Santa collection offers terabytes of unheard - yet strangely familar - sounds in a set of 10 CD's. The Allophons' instrument is digital technology - editing, processing, arranging. Their "revised recordings", created from existing works, make wry commentaries on the content of the source material. The gestures and tonalities of much-loved genres from yesteryear are ruthlessly deconstructed and blended into new exciting music. Enjoy duets that never happened! Dance to old classics mashed with goofy disco tunes!
