Release Notes:
Resident Advisor:
Ben Klock and Marcel Dettmann's international profiles shot up over the
past year thanks to their Berghain residency, original productions and,
in Dettmann's case, a mix CDùbut doesn't their fellow resident Norman
Nodge deserve the same success? Nodge did a great textured dub remix of
Peter Van Hoesen's "Trusted" on Time 2 Express last year, and this
fifth instalment on Dettmann's label focuses on different
approachesùand suggests that Nodge is perhaps the most diverse sounding
producer in the Berghain axis.
Despite their titles, both "Attitudes" and "Maniac" feature funk
basslines and housey filters, but Nodge's ability to juxtapose these
softer elements with spooky sound textures and reduced, staccato beats
give both productions an intangible edginess. On the flip, he ramps up
the intensity: "Man Made" is a booming techno track with heavily
reverberated percussion, while the noisy bleeps of "Rush" transposes
the listener to a dark, grimy corner of the iconic Berlin club. Both
tracks are delivered with a depth and resonance of sound that is also
common to Klock and Dettmann's productionsùsurely it's only a matter of
time before Nodge joins his colleagues on the international stage.
