OUT NOW

A newborn in the MinimalRome family sees the light.
MRX’s its name. A new series for clubbers in sick-leave.

Starting with two releases together, by J.T.C. and The Hacker.

 

[MRX016] J.T.C. - Basturma Highway 12’’

•  A1: Basturma Highway
•  B1: Overnight (Chrome Heads)

J.T.C. is the techno alter ego of Tadd Mullinix/Dabrye.
His style ranges from caffeine techno to dark ebm tunes to sick house.

This time Tadd brings two jacking 4/4 Chicago house monsters, embroidered here and there by dirty 303 loops, whistles, eerie vocal samples and crispy pads. Both amazingly packaged in a loud analogue production.

[MRX017] The Hacker - Haunted 12’'

•  A1: Haunted (Original)
•  B1: Haunted (Feedback remix)
•  B2: Haunted (Banda Banetti remix)

The Hacker, l'homme de l'ombre, comes from a long way. Has released dozens of records on labels such Ozone, Missile, PIAS, Tiga's Turbo, Terence Fixmer's Planete Rouge and his own Goodlife Records. Has made remixes for artists such Marc Almond, Fischerspooner, Laurent Garnier, Air, Nitzer Ebb and gained a worldwide success with Miss Kittin.

"Haunted" is a Kraftwerk-style electro track, with an 808 punching pattern counterpointing a deep analogue bassline enveloped in rich, harmonic pads. Bringing cold atmospheres, in the mood of Dopplereffekt.

On the B side, the Feedback remix is an acid techno razorblade, coming straight from the "Sound of Rome" traditional path.

Also the Banda Banetti remix (a new MinimalRome open project) gyrates in the techno domain, with a deeply revised version of the original. A cluster of analogue sounds put together in a supercompact killer tune, designed for the sickest dancefloors.
