This September will see Visionquest return with Alexi Delano’s ‘Water Colors’ EP, accompanied by a remix from the Persuader aka Jesper Dahlba¨ck. Chilean born, Swedish raised, New York adopted and Amsterdam based producer and DJ Alexi Delano has an impressive back catalogue dating back over two decades and featuring releases on labels such as Laurent Garnier’s F Communications, Richie Hawtin & John Acquaviva’s Plus 8, Ghostly International’s Spectral Sound and M_Nus as well as Visionquest where he returns to here following his collaborative ‘The Breeze’ EP alongside label co-founder Shaun Reeves in 2013. Title-track ‘Water Colors’ opens the release, a smooth and gradually unfolding composition fuelled by an amalgamation deftly programmed multi-layered melodies which ebb and flow throughout the sturdy rhythmic foundation. Following is The Persuader’s take on ‘Water Colors’ which dubs things out to create a murky submerged feel in contrast, utilizing the original’s hypnotic melodies whilst subtly working in a rugged 303 line throughout. ‘Communicate’ then rounds out the package with a groove-led feel, bringing a squelching acid bass, hooky vocal chop and modulating synth flutters into the limelight as the shuffled dynamic drum machine workout carries things along.

Adding to his extensive and diverse catalog, Alexi Delano delivers his first release for Spectral Sound. My Busted SH-101 is an ode to the beloved and portable synthesizer made by Roland in the early 80s, not long before Delano started DJing. As a producer, he's earned a reputation for being a bit of a machine himself, churning out records on a wide variety of labels over the last 20 years. He holds his own in house music under his A.D.N.Y. moniker, but it's with tracks such as this one that show off his love for dark, weird techno that sits comfortably alongside Spectral's finest. "My Busted SH-101" flutters and pulsates wildly throughout, with a heavy bass kick driving from the start. The sonic rabbit hole soon opens up to crackling, crunching melodies – Delano pitching up and down, making the synth sing in his own experimental fashion. The b-side remix is also a gem, provided by Alexi's long-time friend and occasional production partner Jesper Dahlbäck. Going by his revered alias The Persuader, Jesper's interpretation adds beautiful, sweeping dub echoes and pushes the lower end to the front, creating a strong dancefloor vibe with warmth and attitude.

Clink is proud to present this EP as another installation from New York’s thriving production community.

Volume 4 of Alexi’s already classic Sessions series is here! Kick off with ‘Wanna’ Be Bad?’, sounding like a ride on a slippery escalator Alexi builds upon the rubbery groove. A slow story just as the filter tucks and the drums hit the speakers. Listen. The track ‘I’m Tired’ resides on the flipside. Syncopated dance steps beneath heavy reverbed clave releases the tone. Darting between the metallic 303 appearances the tone continues the wobble. More reverb releases hit as the rolling bass alarms the floor. Fresh. More

Hienostunut Sonni is non other than Jori Hulkkonen (F Com /Turbo). Mixing in the Swedish fashion(though Jori is from Finald!) with tight productions featuring clean compression and snapping basslines. ‘No Body’ has the 303 acid box remaking the basslines from Chaka Khan’s ‘Ain’t No Body’. Laced with some latin percussion and funk this is sure crowd please for the warmer months and vibes. Levon Vincent(Ovum) gives it the remix treatment, stripping it down to the bare bones and building it up slowly with a teasing 303 hook and monster flange. ‘Sharped Dressed Acid Man’ is yes based on the ZZ Top 80’s track. Thick acid lines blend with bouncing beats and dubbed effect trickery. Label chief Alexi Delano takes on the remix adding some twisted laughing and intense acid flavors. More

Jesper Dahlback (Dahlback-Pokerflat-Output-Soma) and Jean-Luis Huhta(Lebensfreunde) team for a killer acid house release!Brommage Dub is a slow moving acid house long player. The beats as expected are tight. The bass creeps in and hypnotizes. Very dynamic mix with peaks and valleys. Let it ride... Flip it for a grooving and funky jam. Swing rhythms + warm acid touches. The track jacks away with soul and energy. The inner cut freaks it out. Flanging from both sides atop a throbbing kick drum. Watch it grow. More
