Barem - Orchids [RCM004] (PROMO)

11048683

Foremost minimal Techno producer Barem is next to serve up a compelling Three track EP for the ever more essential Rhythm Cult label and comes hot on the heels of EPs from Deadbeat and Greenville Massive amongst others.

Barem has appeared on Minus, Leftroom, Mindshare and Moon Harbour, and is a revered live performer who has headlined everywhere from DEMF to Mutek. Of course, he is a stylistically diverse producer who shows us his well honed production chops here once again.

First track ‘Vanda’ is awash with beautiful melodies as synthetic, intricate drums form a liquid groove down below. Both minimal but colourful, groovy but organic, it’s a charming track with plenty of summery warmth imbued within.

Next up, ‘Phaius’ is slightly darker and more late night, with its nagging sine waves, skittish percussion and flappy drums. Alien sound effects scurry across the face and wooden hi hats add another micro-groove with which dancers will easily relate.

Finally, ‘Lycaste’ gets all shimmery and shuffling with a soft edge cloud of hi hats, rolling drum fills and snares all coming over in jazzy fashion. Off time hits, synth blurts and Villalobos style details all characterise this cerebral track, and a killer, classic house bassline and wandering piano line both tie the whole thing together in style.

This is an EP of superb Techno that is stuffed with charm, emotion and organic textures that really makes you feel something whilst drawing you to the dance floor.
