MAGAZINE 011EP
|
Two pieces by Naum Gabo (Jonnie Wilkes and James Savage) that the DJs at Magazine play slowed-down in many sets. The speed change from 45 to 33rpm transforms them into new tracks -- pulled from Glasgow to Cologne, placed in a different genre, converted from the intended scheme to a new effect. This practice materializes here, with the slowed-down tracks pressed to play at 45 RPM -- they've now physically become new compositions. They can't be played at the original speed any more; only slower still. Now it's your turn.

CORR 015EP
|
Well-known for its highly idiosyncratic blend of hard-hitting prime time movers, Glasgow-based production duo Naum Gabo returns to the international dancefloors with Embargo Barco, a dripping slice of raw club activism sure to split many a forehead. With impelling vocals by electronic flaneur Capablanca and a surprising funk remix by mutant disco revivalist Daniel Maloso, this makes for a slick package more than ready for mayhem.

OM 012EP
|
Naum Gabo presents two covers of two mighty Scottish acts from the late '70s/early '80s. Simple Minds' "Theme For Great Cities" was originally released in 1981 -- an electro-trance-funk classic, pre-dating the rave scene by about 10 years. Naum Gabo takes it, electrifies it, and turns it into a hi-fi dancefloor filler. "Wet Job" is Fingerprintz' dirty groover from '79, reworked into a dark disco/futuristic ride into doom. Not 1, not 2, but 3 Scottish music greats on one slinky slice of vinyl.

EF 016EP
|
Naum Gabo is a project by Jonnie Wilkes (aka Optimo). This 12" embraces the slower side of dance music, and is reminiscent of German progressive rock or psychedelic music. The original version of "Black Lab" is a slow cosmic dancer, and the remix by Japanese nu-disco artist Discosession is deeper and even more gorgeous slow cosmic house. "Torus" has a pre-techno sound which derives itself from progressive rock.
