There's a certain dynamic that emerges whenever Andre Galluzzi and Dana Ruh pair up to create a record. With last year's "Freya / Mauersegler" split EP on Ostgut Ton, the two have already hit up some of the most prestigious labels in the electronic music landscape. Tracks that are upbeat, driving, and, most of all, fresh have characterized their co-productions, which now have ARAS as a home.
Taking its cues from their label nights at Berlin's Panorama Bar, Galluzzi and Ruh have solidified ARAS into an imprint based around expanding upon the creative energy that both share. Their first release, "Trambolla", harmonizes each artist's approach into a grooving whirlwind that showcases their ability as producers as well as live musicians.Starting off with the title track "Trambolla", the EP begins with tribal beats and infectious arrangements that seamlessly build upon each other along the course of the A-side. Grooving from the start, it's the kind of track where the listener or the DJ gets into the vibe right away. The percussion of "Trambolla" especially stands out amongst the Latin-tinged bongos, hi-hats, and hand claps that interchangeably come in and out of the track, a journey of its own at 9 minutes.
"Thelema", the B-side, contrasts with the lightness of the A-side and demonstrates Galluzzi and Ruh's equal comfort in creating darker and heavily pounding tracks. The ten minute track grows out of a simple beat and growls ever louder as it takes in more intensity with its cascade of filters, delays, and booming bass. Aside from the hard edge of "Thelema", it also provides a preview into the live set that the two artists are about to debut together.
