A modern species is sort of what DJ Sports is. He and his Regelbau
crewmates approach dance music in a way that didn't really exist ten years
ago. Their sensibility is loosely shared by a global network of artists,
among them J. Albert and DJ Wey in New York, some members of Lyon's
Brothers From Different Mothers and the Acting Press label (whose PLO Man
was a headliner back when Regelbau threw parties in their native Aarhus).
Some of them might appear to be house producers, but they're not really
focussed on genre so much as an era (the '90s), a feel (playful, replete,
maybe a bit melancholy), and a knack for reinvigorating the familiar. They
can come off goofy, but their underlying intent is deadly serious and their
standards of presentation high.
Among these artists, Regelbau stand out for their level of craft. Their
arrangements are often clever and nuanced, their mixdowns crisp. On his
debut album, DJ Sportsùyounger brother of Central, Regelbau's biggest
exportùdemonstrates a particularly good ear. The record's eight tracks
conjure vivid and inventive worlds, full of detailed percussion, balmy
chords and alluring scintillas of melody. They don't often really go
anywhere, and this is part of what makes them ideal for an impending
summer. DJ Sports' music is so warm and pleasant that you're happy to bask.
House is, by a small margin, the dominant style. On "Fertile Crescent" it
makes for the album's weakspot. Locked into a stale swung groove, DJ
Sports' drum programming can't really shine. (The track is only redeemed by
the melodies, which dance vaguely like motes of dust.) Things get better on
"Parallax," with its moody synth-sax purls, and "Ascension," whose
calypso-tinged beat has just the right balance of thrust, lift and drift.
DJ Sports lets the track soak in for eight minutes, only stopping for a
graceful breakdown.
Things get really interesting, though, when DJ Sports explores other
styles. He excels at various shades of zone-out: verdant rainforest ambient
on "Stellar Clusters," darker downtempo on "Entry Mode." His take on jungle
is even better. It helps that he seems to save his most winsome chord
progressions for these tracks: starburst pads define gorgeous opener "World
A" and, later, "For Real For You," whose blissy tech-soul mood recalls A
Guy Called Gerald's Black Secret Technology. The album winks out with the
sleepy "Reluctant Memory." The temptation to loop straight back to the
beginning is strong.
enjoy excellent quality vinyl ripping, music and encoding FTW! :)
