MINUS112 12ö, WAV, MP3
Continuing a busy run of recent releases on Minus is one of the labelÆs core
contributors, namely Jon Gaiser. Since late 2005, the Detroit-born, Berlin-based
producer has been intrinsically linked to the rise and rise of the label owing
to key releases like his Eye Contact EP, genre defining 2008 full length, Blank
Fade, and last year's huge EP, Unstable Witness. When not busy translating new
experiences and sensations into abstract techno sounds, the man occupies himself
by endlessly touring the globe - playing clubs and festivals in Europe, Japan
and the States: it is for that reason that he is one of the most celebrated
Minus associates of them allà
The first of two new offerings is æSome Slip.Æ Hitting the ground running, itÆs
at once a firm, drum-led track that wastes no time in clearing a path down which
you gleefully march. The track really comes to life when a hidden bassline
begins to rise and fall freely a third of the way through. As it weaves its way
through endlessly dripping, popping, aqueous FX, the whole thing feels as tall
as it does wide and as heady as it does deepà wig-out, late-night stuff for
sure.
Busier and more complex is æElastrikÆ where de-tuned synth sounds shoot off in
all directions as the clicking bass rotations below endlessly churn up the
dancefloor. ItÆs crisp stuff that establishes rhythm early on and focuses on
percussive and synthesised detail for the rest of its course. Hurried alien
sounds interject as if they have a life of their own and drag the trackÆs focus
point from side to side, front to back, ensuring you get lost in its darkened
midst without reserve.
ThereÆs a duality to GaiserÆs work which means itÆs both bold and instinctive
but subtle and intricate, and this two-tracker is another fine example of just
how exciting that interplay can be.
