Syntech Vedeneev – Tonehammer EP (2013)

DAST Net Recordings

• Tech-house 
• Deep house 
• Remix 
• Minimal techno 
• Club dance

Comment: it starts off with the original mix of Tonehammer, which is tech-house by its style though it is getting even more sympathetic thanks to it the rhythm is syncopated with a funky propulsion. The following notch My House deserves its name because those lofty and hazy sensations coming out of the sound used to mingle and culminate in the deep house frequencies. The style is good enough to use it for yourself to fall asleep instead of eating sleeping pills. Fuck off the drugs! Music is the best remedy against any of kind of mental distress anyway! Its Party Time used to sway between the channels being more minimal and restrained in comparison to the previous ones. However, the first opinion of mine might be the disillusion because one can perceive a slowly winding rhythmic structure to be progressing and coming to fruition with the assistance of kick drums. It like the tension between the primitive and the sophisticated. That’s very catchy it could be said ultimately. The EP, which was issued on DAST Net Recordings three years ago is finished off by a Kratos` hazy remix of the title track. It is elegantly hazy because of exploiting more external sounds and vowel effects which make sweeping movements across the soundscape and adhere to the hypnotic cadence. In a nutshell, it creates the fascinating surrounding around the listener, I guess, in the face of different periods of the day. It is much better and more haunting one could expect before listening to the first chords.

Egrojj – Gambling EP (2014)

DAST Net Recordings

• Minimal techno 
• Tekno 
• Remixes 
• Dub house 
• Club dance
• Alternative dance 
• Tech-electro

Comment: fur sure, this 9-track outing is an intriguing one, where Egrojj`s compositions are interestingly remixed. The content of these tracks is emptied by emotions thereof allowing more space for rhythmic permutations through minimal approach. Indeed, the listener can follow the rigid, austere rhythmic patterns with quite static electronic and stereo effects, however, providing a dynamic and vivid background for the rhythms. Mostly the release runs in the vein of techno music, though there are up dub house frequencies and slight tekno and electro inflections either. Catchy basses are represented in the way to arouse one’s legs to shake up and down and one’s jaw to shift in a similar way. After having listened to this issue many times in a row it induced the philosophical question: what is the emotion by definition and ontologically? Is it a phenomenon, which either exists separately on its own or is it quite something that is either a relation or en effect between the subject and the object? The more you listen to it the more you can trace down of how sublimely it is panned with perceptual experiences. It is a great issue indeed, being a notch in the discography of DAST Net Recordings. Egrojj is assisted and remixed by his (imprint) buddies the likes of Eduard Colin, Flatch, THE WEB, Serious Cut, and Strehm, Mortus Inc. .
