STL 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Theer is no-one quite like STL, the German beat maker who scuffs up his sounds, degrades his synths and makes groves so ramshackle it feels like they could fully collapse at any given time. Lost In Musik is his latest full length on his own Something vinyl series and is a 17 track ode to his signature sound. The rumbling drums inject real shady menace into any set, the intricate fusion of hosue and techno structures are primed to hypnotise and there are also seven playful loops included for the more adventurous DJs out there. Another classic.

Review: 
For their second installment, the Chateau Chepere crew brings on board legendary producer Stephan Laubner under his STL moniker, with four time warping pieces of music. With his distinctive and intricate sonic palette, Laubner extracts from his hardware different musical colors and shapes to produce singular atmospheres. Opening up the EP is Fly Fly, an epic 11 min minimal house trip full of tension and excitement, followed by Eargrind, an eerie, laid back Detroit leaning ballad. On the flip is Light Up, a spaced out, playful and bittersweet number that will revitalize any hazy after-hours dancefloor. Closing up the EP is Unlike Dislike, a quirky, jacking and mischievous techno workout for the packed club. This diverse ep will pull the listeners and dancers into Laubner's multifaceted, low key but captivating universe.
