Another Masochistic Weekend from Fabric

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010 | Event Preview | 1 Comment

Just a heads up for an upcoming mammoth party – Fabric On & On & On & On…. The folks at fabric are going to throw another 30 hour marathon since the 10th Birthday was so well received. The last one was definitely one of the legendary parties of 2009. It had the perfect crowd with the most eye watering of line-ups ever seen and an unbelievable atmosphere that validated why the club has been around for 10 years. We certainly gushed about it in our review the other month.

On the 6th March Fabric › Continue reading

Ellen Allien – Out Remixes Review

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008 | Single Review | No Comments

We loved Ellen Allien’s album Sool. It took a while to grow on us but once there it seemed to make a lot of sense in its haywire abstractness. Out was one of the more abstract tracks. It was fully stripped down and just plain weird. Yet it had character and a certain infectiousness about it. The single release which we are completely late in reviewing, has the original accompanied with remixes by Thomas Muller and Audion.

Thomas Muller has tried to bring the very stripped down original out of its shell by embodying it with more dancefloor friendly beats. The abstract noises are kept, which take on a kind of insect crawling feel, whilst a deep bassline rumbles and rattles about in the background. Its effective and simple in its aim, but maybe a bit too minimal generic?

Audion’s Out for Infants mix is a completely different kettle of fish. He has a fascinating take on the original. He expands on the ploddy beats found in the original by making them more upbeat helped by some metallic percussion. A simple wobbling bassline gives the track a groove as elements of the original echo about in the foreground before accumulating into an oriental floury of an Erhu melody. A great interpretation of the original, keeping elements of the original, whilst still running wild with his own theme.
