Jonquera X Tolouse Low Trax - Series 33 Part One [12" Vinyl]

Avenue 66 opens Series 33 with a Düsseldorf/Lyon connection. Jonquera first encountered Tolouse Low Trax a decade ago in a small Lyon club. The Düsseldorf artist's mechanical psychedelia, and the influence of the Salon collective have been a constant touchstone for Jonquera. After several LPs, Jonquera returns to the EP format with "Cause & Utility"/"Tales of Decay." Built from improvised drum, bass, and vocal recordings, the tracks are reworked through heavy looping and acoustic treatment, a method inspired by his recent live shows. The MPC sorcerer Tolouse Low Trax, aka Detlef Weinrich, brings his Düsseldorf circuitry and autobahn funk with two tracks of pure rhythm apparition. "Amp" is a quintessential Tolouse Low Trax cut, built on concealed rhythmic structures, swampy bass lines, and fragments of radio and voice samples. "Solid Rock" echoes this idea, first conceived as a variation on Amp where particles repeat themselves. A1. Jonquera - Cause & Utility_x000D_ A2. Jonquera - Tales Of Decay_x000D_ B1.
