Mizati – Conocer {[one06]}

Artist: Mizati
Title:
Conocer
Label:
 One
Catalog #:
[one06]
Release Date:
2004/04/22


Mizati came along as a surprise treat, earlier managing to slip under many of our radars. like most of Mizati’s music, these tracks are part of a live recording session and the inspiration of the moment shines through. From the opening track ‘caballo’ to the closing ‘sediento’ Mizati explores a range of styles, but manages to keep it all together.

Conocer itself means ‘on the road’. A theme is presented of the old west and the desert, but by no means is the sound slaved to a single interpretation. Gentle and unassuming, this release at times reminds me of updated sounds previously laid by the likes of coil’s ‘the snow ep’ and cabaret voltaire’s ‘plasticity’… and I typically dont like to make comparisons.


Tracklist:
01 – caballo

Lackluster – Live At Freeflow, Helsinki 16/07/03 {mtk129}

Artist: Lackluster
Title:
Live At Freeflow, Helsinki 16/07/03
Label:
Monotonik
Catalog #:
mtk129
Release Date:
2004/04/18


Courtesy of probably the most renowned artist on Monotonik, Finland’s pukka idm maestro Lackluster, late of DeFocus Records, Merck, Rikos, and a host of other labels, we have a rare treat – a full, hour-long live set recorded at Helsinki’s M-Bar in July 2003.

There, using a laptop running the great Ableton Live software, Esa ‘Lackluster’ Ruoho mashed up classic Monotonik tracks, remixes, and on-the-spot jams into a cohesive whole – highlights include a gorgeous unreleased track, the super-catchy Ceniq remix which formerly featured on seminal netlabel Milk, the splicing of some surprising breaks into the classic downtempo of ‘Bothersome (Mother Mix)’, and the final jazzy ambience of a cunning Proem remix, bizarre voice modulations and all. Much kudos to Lackluster for not only recording the moment, but allowing us to put it out for free – return the favor and pick up some of his vinyl or CDs when you have the chance?

Tracklisting for the set is as follows:

00:00 01. starcell u.k. (container foc350cd/lp deFocus)
07:07 02. in passing (wrapping foc369cd/lp deFocus)
15:05 03. (unreleased)
21:55 04. 14/07/02 (unreleased)
27:58 05. ceniq: gaylab (lacklustermx) (ceniq: gaylab ep/milk (mp3))
34:42 06. ableton mashup

42:49 08. ableton mashup

Makunouchi Bento feat. Nagz – Morninfizik (rmx) {od066}

Artist: Makunouchi Bento feat. Nagz
Title:
Morninfizik (rmx)
Label:
 Ogredung
Catalog #:
od066
Release Date:
2004/03/31


Although thought as a reprise of old amazing scene song Morninfizik, Makunouchi Bento and Nagz exult in this lovable effort with a bit of nostalgy and gameable moods; we personally like to consider this track as an adieu-tune from the duo, and a grandious welcome to the hungarian alias lurked behind the Nagz moniker, an everlasting name in the netscene. In things such as the deliberately cheesy chippy-synth lines or trippy touches, Morninfizik is definitely the song to long for.

Tweeter – Planet Boelex {mtk128}

Artist: Tweeter
Title:
Planet Boelex
Label:
Monotonik
Catalog #:
mtk128
Release Date:
2004/03/30


We don’t tend to release many single tracks at Monotonik anymore, preferring EPs or albums. But when cult Finnish ex demo-scene composer Tweeter, perhaps best known for his late ’90s releases on Substance’s mod.label Voodoo, contacts us and offers us his first finished track since 2001, and it happens to be just gorgeous, what do we do? Well, we make an exception, of course.

But how to describe? Well, similarly to his previous Monotonik release, ‘Me And My Friend Lobstah’, Tweeter shows his ‘classic idm’ side, but ‘Planet Boelex’ isn’t simply an Artificial Intelligence clone, rather striking out with intricate percussion, many, many layers of echoing synthetic leads, and the feel of something strangely timeless. And that shift of gears about four minutes into the track… oh my. Net result? Now we wish we could commandeer the Tardis and do some time shifting of our own, so Tweeter would finish an album for us before Tweeter Jr. arrives – one tune every 3 years simply ain’t enough.

Ojoruido – Sasa EP {COM03}

Artist: Ojoruido
Title:
Sasa EP
Label:
 Comatronic
Catalog #:
COM03
Release Date:
2004/03/25


Shades of experimental and ambient are accompanied by 4/4 beats on this EP by Ojoruido aka Renzo Peressi from Merida, Venezuela. Minimalistic layers are joining forces with crackling drum patterns, descreet melodies and abstract noises to create either a hypnotic feel (Sasa), a pleasing laidback atmosphere (Resistencia) or a dark and organic sound journey that resembles a trip into the mind of a psychopath (Contacto 260901). Enjoy!
