Press Info:
Schlammpeitziger has released nine albums in the 18 years he’s been making music. He has grown together with his home town of Cologne just as he has with his use of the synthesizer, the only tone-generator used on the new album (as on the previous one).

Schlammpeitziger is known and respected for his playful melodies and exuberant, clattering rhythms. This sound-aesthetic, with all its quirks and strangeness, has become second nature to him. And “Vorausschauende Bebauung” is no exception – he remains his unmistakable self on every second of the album. But at the same time, Schlammpeitziger has never stood still. It is the resolution of this apparent contradiction that is presented in his new album.

With his last record “Schwingstelle für Rauschabzug” we saw a new serious side to Schlammpeitziger. This recently-acquired depth and seriousness has morphed into darkness on “Vorausschauende Bebauung”. His typical swarm of melodies is permeated with ghostly drifting strings and sub-bass, creating a new secretive and enchanted melange. Schlammpeitziger tells of small things that become big if you let go of them. And without our knowing it he draws us into his universe of sound.

“Vorausschauende Bebauung” is, one might say, made for the big screen. Schlammpeitziger cites Cosmic Disco, Nu Disco and himself as the main influences on the album. So he’s finally arrived in the club. The depths which were always present in Schlammpeitziger’s psychedelic moments here become a trip. The beats are gripping and have a sharpness and punch. The cold synthetic disco sound on the new album is a long way from the private intimacy of previous works. In many ways it sounds dark and ominous.

The opening track on “Verkleinerte Vergößerung” shows the way of the whole album and the psychedelic club music on it. With “Deutlich Drehmoment” Schlammpeitziger conjures a smiles on our faces. “Dämm Delight” sounds somewhat arabesque. The vocoder synth melody and bouncing beats on the title track are equally attractive as they are simple. We hear Schlammpeitziger’s own voice, which presents a new element of lyrics and song on the album. While on the track “Rollrockers Feinrippröhren”, a kind of slow-motion rave tune. And in equally slow motion, everyone throws their hands in the air.

“Vorausschauende Bebauung” doesn’t just exude autonomy and composure. This album also invites the listener to get lost in its depths. It’s about enjoying the feeling of being swept along with the flow and being utterly content with the world in which one finds oneself. We encounter dark thoughts as well as smirking mischief residing inside Schlammpeitziger’s music. And sooner or later we stop asking ourselves how anything can be so verbose and massive and at the same time so personal.

Info:
He may be known as The Baron Of Techno, a moniker given to him by John Peel, but Dave Clarke has an anarchist streak a mile wide and punk in his soul. From his break-through ‘Red Series’ in the mid 90s Dave Clarke has become one of the world’s most revered global headliners, whose frenetically charged DJ sets show a man with ‘techno’ coursing through his veins. Whether cutting and phasing classic electro to Chicago house, IDM, punk, techno and Industrial via his 3FM globally syndicated ‘White Noise’ radio show (www.whitenoiseradio.net), globe-trotting DJ sets or his own substantial discography, Dave Clarke has consistently put musical integrity above all else. It’s this continued future thinking, electronic ethos that the techno don brings to fabric 60.

“It is a sonic journey man…don’t you hate that! I wanted to have a gothic and bass heavy start that represented the sonic characteristics that Room 2 is capable of handling. I also wanted it to have some real electro, as Fabric is one place that can truly appreciate that. It’s all pretty dark though and I think it represents the edgier side of club music that you only get to hear in clubs that care.”

As a DJ, Clarke always pushes his equipment to the limits – tweaking, cutting, fading and scratching at breakneck pace whilst monitor needles dance in and out of the red. What started him on the road to being a DJ was combining his father’s love of technology with his mother’s disco-soul records, tunes by the likes of Roy Ayers and The Crusaders.

“My dad had disco lights in the front room. Record decks, reel-to-reels, reverb units, he even did a thing on BBC Radio about quadrophonics. It’s pretty obvious where I get it all from really.”

For someone with such an obsession for sound and sonic detail it’s little wonder that Dave has made himself a techno bunker within the cavernous brick walls of Room 2.

“The friendliest staff ever, the best technicians and the baddest bass. Easily my favourite and most consistent UK club that I have ever played in.”

It’s this inviting backdrop that enables such in demand headliners to push the boat out, experiment, try out new releases for the first time and generally take an open-minded sweatbox on a journey to the centre of bass. With fabric 60 showcasing 17 upfront, and sometimes unknown new releases Dave Clarke has eschewed any desire to look back with guaranteed party tracks and focus solely on completely new material.

From the opening tonal throb of Raudive’s (aka Oliver Ho) ‘Shiver’ to the dark and gothic underbelly of Crotaphytus ‘Cnemidophorus Sexlineatus (The Mr. Pauli Monster Bass Guitar Remix)’ and the IDM crunch of Tommy Four Seven’s’ Armed 3′ Clarke makes his futurist intentions clear. With new electronic exponents like Scape One, Exzakt, Sync 24, Heliopause and Dynarec, Clarke brings the electro outsiders under the microscope whilst the dark acid house of Cristiano Balducci’s ‘Pride’ keeps the Chicago 303 flame burning brightly. We then get a taste of the new sound of Detroit as Marc Romboy vs. Paris The Black Fu get remixed by Kenny Larkin and Ray 7 & Malik Alston’s ‘I.D.F.D.F.I.’ bumps and grinds to a new Motor City beat. Of course when DC is behind the decks, you’re never far away from some blitzkrieg techno and Stephane Signore’s ‘Sacrifice (Radical G – 2k11 Edit)’ delivers them album’s central speaker shredding peak before Gesaffelstein’s ‘Aufstand’ takes us well and truly into the section marked electro.

Finally Dave Clarke takes us into the dark hinterland, a grey area where electro, electronica and techno meet as Clatterbox and w1b0 do battle for beats supremacy before the cinematic vision of Baz Reznik’s ‘The Attic’ closes the show with a macabre death dance of slowed down beats and atmospheric emotion.

Grounded Theory [12] am 28. Oktober 2011 im Arenaclub Berlin

Berlin – Am Freitag, den 28. Oktober 2011, findet die 12. Grounded Theory ab 23:59 Uhr im Arenaclub, Eichenstraße 4, 12435 Berlin statt. Nach der September Ausgabe im Horst Krzbrg mit Tadeo, Forward Strategy Group, Jonas Kopp und GT-Resident Milton Bradley spielen zur 12. Ausgabe Ben Kock (Klockworks, Ostgut Ton), Delta Funktionen (Ann Aimee, Delsin), Vault Series live (Subjected & Moerbeck) und Henning Baer (Grounded Theory, K209).

Ben Klock ist eines der prägendsten Gesichter des aktuellen Technogeschehens. Seine Marathon-Sets im Berghain, die gut und gerne bis zu 10 Std. dauern, sind geprägt von einer bemerkenswerten Konstanz und Energie. Seine Produktionen auf seinem eigenen Imprint Klockworks oder Ostgut Ton sowie seine Remixe sind ebenso zuverlässig und hochwertig wie seine DJ-Sets. Ben Klock zählt zur Weltspitze der DJ-Garde und das zu Recht und fernab jeden Hypes. Er ist weltweit einer der stilprägendsten Künstler der letzten Jahre, der eher selten außerhalb seines Heimatclub, dem Berghain, in Berlin zu hören ist. Am 1. Oktober 2010 spielte Ben erstmals auf einer Grounded Theory. Diese fünfte Ausgabe war und bleibt einer der am hellsten leuchtenden Veranstaltungen der GT-Historie.

Hinter Delta Funktionen steckt ein junger Niederländer namens Niels Luinenburg, der im Umfeld der Amsterdamer Delsin-Crew Popularität gewann. Mit Releases auf Delsin Records sowie Ann Aimee veröffentlichte Delta Funktionen zeitgemäßen, groovenden Techno mit deutlich erkennbaren Anleihen zum ursprünglichen Detroit-Techno. Nach der starken “Setup” Serie auf Delsin mixte der Wahlberliner aktuell die Inertia-Compilation inklusive seines Tracks Topor, der auf der ersten Auskopplung auf Delsin Records erscheinen wird. Bereits im vergangenen Februar spielte Delta Funktionen für Grounded Theory im Horst Krzbrg. Der offiziellen Schließzeit geschuldet konnte er damals nur ein 1,5 Std. Set spielen, daher ist man diesmal umso erfreuter, dass im Arenaclub Zeit keine Rolle spielt.

Über das Label Vault Series werden nicht viele Worte verloren. Labelhead Subjected legt bewusst den Fokus auf die Musik, die durch insgesamt sieben Katalognummern eine eindeutige Sprache spricht. Druckvoll, rau und energetisch ist der Sound der Vault Series, die in der Vergangenheit Künstler wie Sawf auf Perc Trax remixte oder einen Track zur kommenden Delsin Compilation beigesteuert hat und von Künstler wie Terence Fixmer, Tommy Four Seven, Peter van Hoesen oder Marcel Fengler regelmäßig gechartet wird. Die aktuelle Vault 7.0 lieferte Moerbeck, der zur zwölften Grounded Theory zusammen mit Subjected eines ihrer gemeinsamen seltenen Live-Sets präsentieren wird.

Als vierter Act steht Grounded Theory Mitinitiator Henning Baer auf dem Line-Up, der aktuell mit seiner Fierce Hundred EP auf seinem zusammen mit Milton Bradley ins Leben gerufene Label K209 experimentelle, industrial-esquen, rauen Techno veröffentlich hat. Nach seiner Premiere zur neunten Grounded Theory steht er nun zum dritten Mal hinter den Decks des Arenaclubs und wird bevor GT12 am 28. Oktober stattfinden wird, neben Milton Bradley und Sawf sowie Sandwell District eine Woche zuvor im Six D.O.G.S in Athen zu hören sein.
