Release Notes :
Frank Sonic has just recently released a 12" with Tube & Berger on MBF, here we
are releasing a much more techno focussed release of his. Frank has been
successfully DJing in for years and has been a force as the resident DJ in the
Butan club (Wuppertal), maybe the most prominent club in Germanys coalmining
district for techno. For his Trapez release he has teamed up with his mate Mike
Maass. With their production Trapez is starting a new series of harder techno
releases following Roland M . Dills Trapez 122. Frank and Mike have created with
their original of "Blizzard" a kind of sci-fi monster that skilfully creates a
perfect pace and feeling.... sneaking in FX sounds creating a "breathing sound"
within the track. We say it is a rocker! The Secret Cinema remix of "Blizzard"
is a rollercoaster of a track, we dont want to say to much here, but imagine a
solid hour of genuine techno compressed in a trax playing time and you can guess
how strong this remix is. No more word's needed. A. Mochie, who had his
breakthrough internationally with Len Fakis "Death by House" mix, has here given
"Blizzard" his treatment. Creating a cool static feeling that is intensified
with each step, he builds up a feeling of urgency. We (at Trapez) would like to
call "the ambulance feeling"!"House Soldier" in its original version is a bit of
a tongue in cheek affair using the sample "house "in a harder techno context.
The track has a mesmerizing flow, while building up a musical inertia that is
impossible to stop. House Soldier is last but not least a bassline driven force
into modern techno.Alexandro Trebor, is an upcoming French artist and has
remixed "House Soldier" in a really tight way... there is virtually no element
that does not rock hard in this track. This is power techno at its best.Van
Bonn, already a bit of an institution for his techno dub remixes has chosen to
give "House Soldier" a Berlin feel. Van Bonns remix stands for a hybrid of old
school techno and new school attitude, combing slashing "Speedy J" sounding
snares with elevating experimental soundscapes. Ride the Van Bonn wave!
