RECORDINGS
Everyone, please welcome Mr. Barcode! Mr. Barcode is a computer with soul. He's a hard drive with a funk chip. And together with his friend, George the Calculator, they make beautiful music together. Binary Is The Language Of Love is an EP that expresses humanity through a non-human voice: "Robot Love" takes freaked-out techy groovisms to the next level, finding itself torn between the driving b-line that propels the track and the tweaked keyboard commands that elevate its energy. On the flip, Mr. Barcode gets downright filthy with "Disgusting Base," an exercise in acid house that sounds like no other track you've heard this year--or maybe ever. (We're not kidding!) This is truly sick stuff. Wrapping up the package is the Broken Robots Mix of "Robot Love," a breakbeat interpretation that will likely garner airplay from electro and breaks enthusiasts alike. We only communicate with Mr. Barcode through e-mail (he got rid of his phone line when DSL came around), so we don't know much about him. All we know is that he was really pissed when he heard we did a record with Jay Tripwire. It almost sunk the deal, but luckily, he came around to his senses. If technology defines how we'll live in the future, Mr. Barcode defines how we'll dance.
Following several records for the Denver-based Casa Del Soul label as well as releases for Vibernt, Fire Recordings, and their own Hochokai imprint, Wyatt Earp & DJ Foxx make the jump to PR2 Recordings for "The Emerson EP"--a deep and sexy two-tracker that brandishes their trademark style and expands the theme all the same. "Sanctuary" is a deep and dirty tech-house cut of climactic proportions, volleying your attention between its hypnotic ascending keys and a sexy dubbed-out female vocal, while staying well-grounded in its unique and shuffling groove. "Push," in the meantime, heads straight for the dancefloor with a driving, percussive foundation propelling a tweaked and twisted array of techy stabs, rapturous effects, and cleverly cut-up vocal hooks. To round out the package in true Casa style, Earp & Foxx offer up an array of DJ tools for the more adventurous jock. Overwhelmed by the quality and class of this record, we are proud to welcome Wyatt Earp & DJ Foxx into the Primal Records family.
The newest imprint in the Primal Records family, PR2, takes its bow and makes a bold statement toward the shape of things to come. San Francisco DJ/production team DJ Adnan & Amit Shoham deliver the label's first signing with "Searching," a twisted tribal house rub that defines and uncovers the duo's forward-thinking agenda and proper appreciation for classic clubland. Meanwhile, celebrated Vancouver producer Jay Tripwire stamps his sonic fingerprint on a deep and fiery dub remix for the flip that filters the beefy percussion of the original through his signature tech-house aesthetics. Between the two, this record is the thread that binds San Francisco to New York to London, and it's the kind of quality debut record that we are honored and humbled to release.
