Ellen Allien – Dust Remixes EP [BPC232] Release Notes :
After Ellen Allien’s album “Dust” , it was only a matter of time until the right
remixers for the album were found. No less than the crome de la crΦme of today’s
house scene was allowed to have their way with these tracks. And the results are
more than fitting. Although we’ve already burned a full-length CD containing all
of the remixes they created, we’re not planning on leaving the vinyl-loving
faction (or what’s left of them) out in the cold either. This 12″ features three
powerful club tracks from three outstanding remixers. Each unrivalled in their
own space. 01. My Tree (Ripperton s Backlash Remix) From the first moment on,
Perspective label-head Ripperton’s approach to “My Tree” presents an almost
affectionate way of handling the drums, which wander gently from right to left
and only let the straight kick lurking in the distance completely off the leash
after about two minutes.
Using sound spaces with an orchestral feel and a
perfectly placed clarinet, he continuously builds up the tension until finally
it dissipates in the destructive fervor of the love-filled baseline. Heavenly
art house for everyone that would rather feel music than simply hear it. 02.
Schlumi (Camea Remix) In contrast, Camea’s Remix of “Schlumi” relies more on a
detached peaktime moment that’s generated through the sizzling drum pattern with
a sexy, springy kick. But then the powerful sound of the angelic synth fanfare
emerges, reverberating through a sensitized raver’s body all the way down to
their toes and simultaneously creating a monumental hymn from the minimal,
galloping beat. It’s this melody of powerful emotions, which emanates from the
waves continually breaking in the thunder of sweeping effects, that grabs this
almost-molten raver by their extended fist and keeps pulling them back out onto
the dance floor. 03. Searching (Shonky Remix) When Shonky goes to work on a
track like “Searching”, you know you have nothing to be afraid of: It’s always
impressive how, secure in his own style, he knows how to free harmonies from any
dead weight until an airy feeling takes over your body, turning it into a soap
bubble on a raved-out Sunday afternoon. And what a sensual, bubbly promise of
infinity it is. No one is better at capturing a collective love of sound in a
strangely urgent groove, one which may just grab a hold of you and sweep you
away sometime under a cloudless Berlin summer sky.
