[ ::.. RELEASE NOTES ..:: ]
............................
Michael and Levan and Stiven Rivic's Kunai Records begins 2021
by presenting the fourth edition of their popular 'Chronicles In
Motion' series. Launched in 2014, these retrospective releases
look back at some of the finest remixes of the much-loved trio.
Having forged a strong bond with John Johnson's ICONYC over the
years, much of Michael, Levan and Stiven's original music has
found a home there, yielding a plethora of impressive remixes in
the process. Chronicles In Motion Volume 4 highlights some of
the trio's most memorable moments on the US imprint, featuring
five remixes from Barry Jamieson and Charlie May, Habischman,
Martin Roth, Oliver Lieb and Robert Babicz.
A stunning selection of remixes is kicked off by Barry Jamieson
and Charlie May who have had a hand in some of electronic
music's most revered tracks. From engineering some of Sasha's
career defining productions to remixing The Chemical Brothers,
Depeche Mode, Orbital, Madonna, New Order, Seal and more, Barry
and Charlie have been two of the most transcendent figures in
the evolution of electronic music. The duo came together for a
special joint remix of Michael, Levan and Stiven's 'Inborn
Voices', which was originally released in April of 2019. Detail
and character are at a premium here with a low-slung groove
housing a wealth of unique sonic artifacts and crunchy rhythmic
structures. The main themes translate beautifully throughout,
and its tastefully twisted moments continue to delight after
several plays. It's a refreshing listen and perhaps a reminder
of what is missing in so much of today's rapidly consumed
Beatport chart hits.
The second selection finds Habischman reworking the trio's
'Unfamiliar Paths' which originally landed in April of 2020.
Born in Iran but now based in the UK, the London resident has
found a home on some of House and Techno's most esteemed
imprints, including Knee Deep In Sound, NOIR and SCI-TEC. Quite
unhomogenized in terms of sound, Habischman stretched his
creative wings once again with a stunning take on 'Unfamiliar
Paths'. Stripping the framework right down and reprocessing the
main motif has allowed for a massive sense of space. It's here
where ghostly vocal fragments and an unpredictable array of
astral artefacts saturate your senses, ultimately resulting in a
great complement to the brilliant original.
Also reworking 'Inborn Voices' was esteemed progressive house
talent Martin Roth. It's been a storied career for the German
artist since first appearing over a decade ago. The Frankfurt
born, Berlin based producer quickly became a mainstay of the
Anjunadeep roster, where he has delivered several EPs and
remixes since his first appearance in 2010. April of 2019 saw
Martin unveil a classy rendition of 'Inborn Voices', resulting
in a both critical and chart success. Deep and rolling, yet
spacious and modern, its robust rhythmic core and tasteful
electronics create an exuberant air across the first act.
Atmospheric storyboarding adds hopeful anticipation and a touch
of emotion, perfectly foreshadowing a tranquil yet spiritually
uplifting main break, before segueing nicely into a smooth
finale.
Staying in Germany and remixing the trio's 'Unfamiliar Paths'
was electronic music pioneer Oliver Lieb. The Frankfurt resident
has been a firm favorite of some of the world's biggest DJ's
over the years namely Sasha and Digweed who have featured many
of his productions in their live sets and storied Global
Underground projects. Also a long standing contributor to John's
Bedrock imprint, Oliver has most recently been showcasing his
music on Phobiq, Respekt Recordings, Riot Recordings and Tronic.
Always a creative remixer, Oliver put a unique touch on
'Unfamiliar Paths' in April of 2020. Tough and dynamic
throughout, it's deliberate cadence and quirky flair made for a
powerful and concise techno workout, while a pensive break set
the stage perfectly for a finale of percussive flurries and
striking arps.
Rounding out the release and remixing Michael, Levan and
Stiven's 'Nostalgia' is another storied producer Robert Babicz.
The Polish born Malta based producer has been one of the most
influential artists over the course of his long and storied
career. Robert's discography is full of impeccably produced
classics like 'Dark Flower' and 'Remote Kiss', along with many
others which all stand the test of time remarkably well. He's
updated some of electronic music's most revered classic's like
Hardfloor 'Acperience 1 and Cybordelics 'Adventures of Dama'
which both appeared on Harthouse over 20 years ago. More
recently Robert has several stellar productions released
courtesy of John Digweed's Bedrock Records, Systematic and his
own Babiczstyle imprint. For his 'Nostalgia' interpretation
Robert keeps the warm moods from the original while adding an
acidic underbelly and lighter melodic complement. The end result
is a spacious, dreamy rendition that's loaded with character and
groove. A remix full of hope and reflection, capping off another
excellent edition of Kunai Records 'Chronicles In Motion' series.
