Traum-V281

Garnee ‘ImPerfection’

Artist: Garnee
Title: ImPerfection
Label: Traum
Cat. #: Traum V281
Release Date: 21st April 2023
Tracklist:
1. ImPerfection
2. Morning Dance
3. I Wan’t Ya

Garnee’s debut on TRAUM!

Garnee is a new name in the electronic scene but the actual person behind the moniker has had a career full of releases already in the world of music production. He actually managed to write a no 1 hit in the British charts with his club version “Love Machine” by Supermax in 1989 and was a producer in demand. He was involved in the Frankfurt techno scene in the early 90ies and 2000 producing his music in the same production house as Sven Väth, Pascal F.E.O.S, Mark Spoon and others. Now he is back with what is his own private Idaho of contemporary electronic music with his new name Garneee.

Experience his 3-track “ImPerfection” EP which highlights his skilled thought out technique of producing top notch minimalistic melodic techno.

The EP kicks off with the track “ImPerfection”. A track that celebrates the deepest chords on earth and needless to say you can find here fantastic spacious reverbs that expend time and create a perfect comfort zone in a bubble. Definitely an easy one to loose yourself in. Deep rooted house music at its best.

To call “Morning Dance” a true 303 track could be misleading. The funky 303 baseline delivers a key element but there is more to this track as it progresses. The sense of deepness is expressed here as well and becomes a core subject of the track. “Morning Dance” is a perfect monotone hypnotic sunset track, steady going with a small intermezzi.

“I Wan’t Ya” is the closing track of the EP featuring a funky rhythm monster loaded with different parameters that keep a nervous energy throughout the track that keeps your feet in motion. The most minimalist track of this EP for sure.

HDDNSYMBLS drops a three-track dark and dystopian techno release made in collaboration by Orly Gal and Sleepy Cat.

Orly Gal is an American artist from Los Angeles who has built a reputation for having a driving style of hypnotic techno with industrial undertones. Already well-known within her home city’s techno scene, she has been reaching a global audience with her productions on record labels ranging from Kaiserdisco’s KD RAW to Ushuaia Music.

Sleepy Cat is another Los Angeles based DJ and producer who is well-known within the city’s underground club scene. He has an eclectic style ranging from soulful house to raw and hypnotic techno. This release showcases the dark and driving side of his sound.

All three tracks have fast-paced percussion layered with atmospheric pads and analogue synth lines.

“Money Breaks” opens the release with the distorted sound of an ominous synth line that spirals with rippling modulation, while the rhythms of the high-velocity percussion propel the track forwards.

“Sahara” has a thumping kick drum and eerie pads fused with rattling hi-hats. It unfolds with building intensity as the dramatic synth swells burst forth from the percussive framework.

“Confusion” closes out the release with its swirling and juddering percussion layered with fizzing hi-hats and rumbling sub-bass. It’s a raw and distorted track with brutal energy.

Talking about the release, Orly Gal said: “Sleepy and I are passionate advocates of a real-time approach to music production, we wanted to capture the energy and essence of these moments in a live recording.”

Ken aka Sleepy Cat adds: “Bringing this project to life in real-time was a crucial objective. It was vital for us to experience the interplay of elements and their interaction with the environment in order to effectively communicate our message.”
