Info :
After last year’s empowering ‘Nuclear Rawmance’ longplayer, Berlin’s Savas Pascalidis is back with his next 4 track EP on Sweatshop.
Lead track ‘Sensory Perception’ is a tough, analog affair – the sort that we’ve come to expect from the experienced producer – full of straight up 909 drums, squelching synth lines and a warm rounded bass end.
‘Low End Experience’ really is just that – a heavy workout that launches quickly into biting drums and big room techno attitudes. Rolling, flowing, expanding, peaking and finally contracting!
The detroitian tones of ‘Urania Denoise’ lead into totally hypnotic zones as Pascalidis shows off his skills at taking a snapshot of the perfect club loop and then running with it, letting the drums do the work.
Once again contrasting but still fitting within the heady, acidic zones of the producer’s mature sound, ‘Procust’ bends and jacks around a gyrating main synth line that leads the listener into a real cosmic voyage.

Moirae
(Joel Alter Edit)
Press Info:
The solid tumbling tones found on this EP are all thats needed as an introduction to these two accomplished producer’s latest creation. Both strong forces in their own right, the pair come together once again on Sweatshop to present their vision of dancefloor harmony, and mystery!
‘Sirens’ is the aptly titled track whose crazy vibe is encapsulated by jacking, swinging percussion, wild pitching synth stabs and a haunting soprano soloist letting loose! This needs to be experienced to be believed, but the proof will be in the dancefloor, hands in the air and minds expanded!
‘Moirae’ works the tension with dense filtered stabs and crisp solid state percussion, driving this deep slab of dark dance into blissful moments of release. Mellow yet urgent, its a raw, purist electronic statement!
Joel Alter also offers up a special edit which focuses the groove in a slightly more kinetic direction, with reduced, aquatic synth work and a classic club energy that makes it an ideal addition to the package.
Note: artwork & press text were saying “Sirens” instead of “Sirenes”.

The Final Phase
Press Info:
Honing his production skills for over 15 years now, the underground powerhouse that is German Dj Savas Pascalidis primes his third Longplayer. But this Album ‘Nuclear Rawmance’ is soundwise very different from Savas previous albums so it can clearly be seen as his first Longplayer in a new sea of sounds.
Having founded the Lasergun label, UFO, and recently his new Sweatshop imprint, the hard working analog-fanatic is riding a freshly cut wave of attention, after records like his ‘Web of Fear’ on Figure SPC, and the seminal cut ‘Deep Inside Your Eyes’.
Over 12 masterfully produced cuts, all created in his studio using a veritable bank of hardware, Savas pours out his musical heart. From tough, old school edged house, to raw, jacking techno, dub atmospheres and smokey warehouse epics, its all here!
Opening track ‘Logic State’ sets the tone beautifully, with solid state drums forming the crisp backbone to all the tracks found on the album. Glistening and transforming over nearly 9 minutes, its a deep, heavy slice of future techno. The vibe is then maintained as tracks like ‘Get Down’ and ‘Sonic Groove’ apply funky hooks and minimalist aesthetics to the modern underground house sound.
‘Manipulator’ has a deep European techno soul at its core, pumping and mutating across a heavy canvas of dubbed sonics and powerful bass energies, as does the fantastic phasing swagger of ‘Echo Plex’. There are more than enough monsters to keep DJs happy here, and also a very high quality of sound throughout, that ensures repeat listening!
Neo-Detroit anthem ‘Magic Orchestra’ will have everyone’s hands firmly in the air, while the spooky dubbed out chimes of ‘Interspace’ chill things out for a moment, before the album final assault.
The freak-out bomb ‘Web of Fear’ features here, from Pascalidis’ recent Figure SPC outing, and also comes hand in hand with the technoid acid of ‘Flash Point’ and the incredible ‘Deep Inside Your Eyes’, the concluding bass-heavy floor killer!
Considering the sheer volume of upfront, insistent and downright funky tracks on offer here, its reassuring to hear that Savas is locked in at the controls after all these years, perfecting his art and consistently and devilishly delivering the pressure where its needed. We’re sure you’ll be head over heels, trapped in his ‘Nuclear Rawmance’…!
