loke/substance – dupre dax/butylene {#021}

Artist: loke/substance
Title: dupre dax/butylene
Label: Voodoo
Catalog #: #021
Release Date: 1997/12/24

Ho ho ho! Merry X-Mas to all 🙂 Voodoo gives you a very special X-Mas gift. Two mods included for the special reason.

Loke’s “Dupre” explores the ownmade sounds again, and it’s a fabulous track again. I mean, who could possible resist Loke’s music because it’s so great and different compared to the others. This track should make your X-Mas to the fullest 🙂

Substance’s “Butylene” was first composed for the Astrosyn97 competition in Poland but it missed the deadline and therefor was released here on Voodoo. More electronic stuff and you’ll see than just ordinary everyday sounds and computer file structure can be used as instruments 🙂

Voodoo Kru wishes you the best X-Mas and Happy New Year 1998!

those people on the mailinglist who wants to receive their voodoo’s as ZIP instead of LHA should mail me immediately, tell their names and that they’d prefer ZIP for LHA, and i’ll fix it too. archives in aminet will be LHA’s.

Vim! – Norman {REL#119}

Artist: Vim!
Title: Norman
Label: Mono211
Catalog #: REL#119
Release Date: 1997/12/21

Mono’s final release of 1997, most likely, and an appropriately.. nice one. 🙂 Vim! really kicks the technique unlike anyone else, and here’s another example of that fact. I mean, _what_ is going on here? Can anyone tell us? It’s Aphex Twin meeting Tim Follin on a deserted road and beating the crap outta each other, we guess. Stand well clear and watch for the pyrotechnics. 🙂

Release Date: 1997/12/20

at first i must say sorry for being so inactive during the last month but i have been fucking sick, and it just won’t let me off it’s fingaz 🙂 but as always, there is light in the other end of the tunnel and ive now got three more mods from loke, oh gosh and myself to be released. you don’t have to wait too long, i promise.

so the first release after this long break comes from tweeter. it’s one of his fabulous ones again… this time drum’n’bass influenced, and i couldn’t lie too much if i’d just say that he sounds a bit like squarepusher in this very very VERY kickin’ track 🙂 you gotta love this one! tune up.

Ice Climber – Teddy Bear Magix EP {REL#118}

Artist: Ice Climber
Title: Teddy Bear Magix EP
Label: Mono211
Catalog #: REL#118
Release Date: 1997/12/16

“i wage war on the tracking industry”. Live and direct from the land of the rising sun comes a supa-skilful 5-track EP from ice.climber, formerly known as Karl/Kosmic, sometimes known as Bogdan, permanently a maverick fixture somewhere on the scene. This is nice, very nice indeed, and some of da tracks are kinda remixes of some recent Mono tracks (Zyad and others…) Well, perhaps reinterpretations using the same samples would be closer to the truth. 🙂 Whatever, ignore ice.climber at your peril. ignore mono at your penelope pitstop. 🙂

Tracklist:
01 – 900 [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]
02 – 901 [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]
03 – 902 [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]

Distance – Klusterpunk EP {rel#10}

Artist: Distance
Title: Klusterpunk EP
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#10
Release Date: 1997/12/13

Although Distance appears to think he’s the worst musician in the world, heh, his tracks speak volumes about how good he really is. Which is pretty damn majestic, really. Here’s another instalment of the swirling, dense, melody-repetition-led techno that makes him one of the best elektronik musicians on the scene right now. “A Walking Simmer” is an especially good example of twisted logic made sound. And “Soundscapes 2″… whoa! Enjoy the macabre.

Tracklist:
01 – IX Pen [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]
02 – L.A. Kluster [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]
03 – A Walking Simmer [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]
04 – Soundscapes 2 [IT] [FLAC] [MP3]

Dreamfish – Twisted Riddim EP {rel#o9}

Artist: Dreamfish
Title: Twisted Riddim EP
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#o9
Release Date: 1997/12/09

Blimey. Dreamfish has muscled up his style and is making some of the meatiest, most harmful beats to be spat outta a computer for a damn long time – and here’s some more evidence. Another mix of the fearsome “Retro DNA”, and a whole new set of twisted riddims. Let’s face it, it’s no longer just a little aural harassment – it’s getting personal. Cover your ears, repair to the concrete bunkers, and await instructions. Quick.

Tracklist:
01 – Twisted Riddim [MOD] [FLAC] [MP3]
02 – Retro DNA – Mix 2 [MOD] [FLAC] [MP3]

Jazz+Fndr – Echtzeit (remix) {REL#117}

Artist: Jazz+Fndr
Title: Echtzeit (rmx)
Label: Mono211
Catalog #: REL#117
Release Date: 1997/12/07

Jazz and Fndr guest it up with this rather lovely drum+bass track, perfect for chilling out or rocking the funky beat, depending on how loud you play it. Mono recommends you play it very loud indeed. 🙂 Four channels can still kick some sizable ass, even with supa-complex jungle riddims, and here’s some further proof. Enjoy.

Zyad – Evil Banquet EP {REL#116}

Artist: Zyad
Title: Evil Banquet EP
Label: Mono211
Catalog #: REL#116
Release Date: 1997/12/01

The first Mono release by Zyad, our newest member, and it’s pretty easy to see how he fits in. Very nicely, as it happens. 🙂 So, we got more downbeat bigbeat pleasures for your cerebellum – just sit up and say thankyou. Although there’s definitely some scary, scary static-filled undertones to both these tracks. Be slightly afraid, be very slightly afraid. 🙂

01 – Banquet [XM] [FLAC] [MP3]
02 – Evil Thoughts [XM] [FLAC] [MP3]
