Artist: Viinikala+Distance
Title: Sundial Jam (Suntrap Edit)
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#32
Release Date: 1999/05/06
Wandering and wondering at the same time, artists such as Distance and Jiva define the unique Monotonik style, and this interpretation by Viinikala (of an unreleased Distance track) glides slowly along the same heavenly path. We’ve got the deliciously pure synthsounds, we’ve got the pulsing atoms pulsing the atmospherics, and it all adds up to the smallest slice of chilled serendipity. Comparisons? Naaah. 🙂

Title: Untitled Bonus Track
Label: Mono211
Catalog #: REL#165
Release Date: 1999/04/27
Wowee, a first release for Distance on the breakbeat-ish Mono211, and this time it’s a real interesting blend between his conventional unconventionality and a new sub-bass and sharp breaks style. Original, I warrant, and pretty clever with it. And the name is.. well, it makes sense to you, doesn’t it?

Title: Gobblad
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: mtk002
Release Date: 1999/02/27
We continue proceedings on monotonik, mono211’s unconventional idm/techno sublabel, with this mp3 from Distance, our Finnish amigo and master of the understated ambient techno mood. This particular track drifts and phases its way around in a most attractive way, and is released as part of Distance’s project, Lackluster, hence the two names for the author.. so, just chill out, put your feet up and check out this most glacial of grooves. yet again monotonik tends towards the Pete Namlook/FAX stylings h0l admires so much – but watch out for an abrupt change of pace for the next mp3 release, which will be courtesy of Hoffman. But for home listening, nobody beats the biz, and the biz is Distance in da mix 🙂

Title: Star Cell U.K.
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#29
Release Date: 1999/02/05
For some reason we seem to have managed to make the description of this release sound somewhat like a crossword clue – oh well, no matter. Originally an entry into gc27, this is the 16-bit version of a truly beautiful track by Finnish idm maverick Distance. We should probably point out that it adheres to the Aphex Twin’s anagram methods of tune naming, too – clever boy, clever boy. In any case, listen, sway, hum happily, and appreciate.

Title: Washback EP
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#23
Release Date: 1998/07/14
Distance almost at his strangest, we believe he wanted us to communicate that these were constructed squarely under the influence of the weed with the five dangerous prongs. So any slowing down of time and spaced-out ill communication would be entirely due to these songs taking over your life. Finland has got the weirdest, nicest, maddest people, then. Enough said.

Title: Mabo
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#19
Release Date: 1998/05/12
Distance wanted to try something he considered closer to ‘conventional’ techno.. so he did.. and.. well, put this on, lie down, and just float away into the ether. Fragile but just so beautiful, this proves beyond a doubt that he is the Finnish god of the drifting airwaves. No arguments, now. or ever.

Title: Palettes EP
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: rel#15
Release Date: 1998/03/09
The first distance release as an official member of mono/monotonik, and it’s another beautiful one. We don’t know where he gets it from but the style is wild and somehow all messed up but making sense and slowly emerging to reveal the horrible truth below a veneer of carefully tailored respectability and we can see the sonic truth coming slowly upon us from above like a vengeful angel but can only watch and wait as it envelopes us and eats our soul and our mind…. help us.
