█▒║ Release Notes ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ Balance 013 compiled & mixed by SOS (Desyn Masiello, Omid 16B and ║▒█
█▒║ Demi): ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ Featuring a spot-..ion of sounds from yesterday, today and ║▒█
█▒║ tomorrow's electronic maestros, including an eclectic mixture of the ║▒█
█▒║ likes of Aeroplane, Aphex Twin, Bryan Ferry, The Cure, Loco Dice, ║▒█
█▒║ Speedy J, Omid 16B and more... ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ After 12 albums of cutting-edge dance music from all corners of the ║▒█
█▒║ globe, EQ's visionary Balance series has evolved into a never ending ║▒█
█▒║ search to find the perfect equilibrium: the happy marriage of ║▒█
█▒║ integrity, innovation and entertainment. Balance 013 continues this ║▒█
█▒║ great tradition but gives it to you supersized, with three DJs ║▒█
█▒║ blazing a trail of 56 tracks across three jam-packed CDs. ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ At the helm of this voyage is London-based DJ collective SOS (aka ║▒█
█▒║ SexOnSubstance), featuring Demi, Desyn Masiello and Omid 16B. As ║▒█
█▒║ friends, producers, DJs, label owners - and model clubland citizens ║▒█
█▒║ - Demi, Desyn and Omid are three of the most passionate talents ║▒█
█▒║ working in electronic music today. Taking inspiration from their ║▒█
█▒║ SexOnWax and Deeper Substance imprints to form SOS in 2004, they've ║▒█
█▒║ built a first-rate reputation for quality music, inventive mixing ║▒█
█▒║ and an infectious party spirit, whether it's on a boat along the ║▒█
█▒║ Thames, deep inside Bedrock or Ministry of Sound, or glowing in the ║▒█
█▒║ sun in Ibiza or Miami. Like Danny Krivit, Franτois K and Joe ║▒█
█▒║ ClaussellÆs legendary Body & Soul connection before them, the ║▒█
█▒║ chemistry between the members of SOS makes for a proper three-headed ║▒█
█▒║ DJ monster. ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ Balance 013 marks the first time the trio has committed their ║▒█
█▒║ energetic and eclectic sound to CD, and the result is nothing short ║▒█
█▒║ of mind-blowing. Having locked themselves away for weeks, submerged ║▒█
█▒║ in their home studios, SOS painstakingly programmed and pieced ║▒█
█▒║ together a three-disc opus using many of their signature re-edits, ║▒█
█▒║ top-drawer treasures from underground troves, and a few kinky ║▒█
█▒║ surprises out of left field. ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ The journey begins with crashing waves and a sublime guitar solo. ║▒█
█▒║ Omid's track "Seagull", made using a simple four-track when he was ║▒█
█▒║ in an early-90s band called The Reunion, is heard here for the very ║▒█
█▒║ first time. We then glide into a realm of guitar loops and spaced ║▒█
█▒║ out disco. And from there we catch a chugging, hypnotic groove that ║▒█
█▒║ takes us right into the heart of the mix. Here the SOS sound snakes ║▒█
█▒║ cleverly between cosmic dub, ambient breakbeats, Arabian horns and ║▒█
█▒║ all things house. It's a playground perfect for the more ║▒█
█▒║ experimental shades of SOS's palette. ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ The next disc continues where the first left off with The Cure's ║▒█
█▒║ "Lullaby". However, this time it's a special up-tempo edit that ║▒█
█▒║ blends the blissful nostalgia of the original with a new, dreamy ║▒█
█▒║ soundscape that lies beyond. (Actually getting clearance to use ║▒█
█▒║ "Lullaby" in this context involved another massive effort by SOS, ║▒█
█▒║ which ultimately led to Robert Smith himself helping the guys out!) ║▒█
█▒║ Continuing to build the mix, SOS passes through the deepest analogue ║▒█
█▒║ territories before hitting the acid funk running. In true SOS style, ║▒█
█▒║ things later take a turn for the surreal when the rude boys splice ║▒█
█▒║ it up to ask, in the voice of Queen's frontman Freddie Mercury, "is ║▒█
█▒║ this the real life"? After an infusion of twisted, percussive ║▒█
█▒║ techno, the energy flow reaches a climax before dropping back two ║▒█
█▒║ decades to the timeless party sounds of Inner City's "Big Fun". ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ The final mix is every bit as epic and compelling. It's also more ║▒█
█▒║ club-orientated, with tracks cherry-picked from a brotherhood of ║▒█
█▒║ underground talents. Sure enough at times it gets pretty intense, ║▒█
█▒║ with prime dancefloor cuts from the likes of Aphex Twin, but it's ║▒█
█▒║ always in keeping with the ebb and flow of the project. Effortlessly ║▒█
█▒║ organic and seamlessly dynamic, the sequence progresses, releasing ║▒█
█▒║ pressure and leading to the atmospheric finale entitled "Full of ║▒█
█▒║ E_mty" from Omid's Like 3 Ears And 1 Eye album. ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ Fair dinkum, SOS. Individually they are dynamite; collectively they ║▒█
█▒║ are the bomb. Taking the art of DJing, moving it forward and making ║▒█
█▒║ it truly progressive. Three DJs, three CDs and an explosive sequence ║▒█
█▒║ of trip-tech sounds from right around the world, mixed the way SOS ║▒█
█▒║ plays live - welcome to Balance 013! ║▒█
