Dirty analog techno from French boss; Crackboy Trevor Jackson: ""Brilliant! Crackboy (and all his dirty aliases) never dissapoints"
For his second chapter on Crowdspacer (after releases on Tigersushi, I'm A Cliché, Zone or Fragil), Crackboy, the king of French dirty analog techno, half of POV with label-boss Joakim, digs deeper into that Detroit melanchol-epic vibe with Weapons Of Steel on the A-side before going bonkers on the B-side with 2 naughty stripped-down beat-centric DJ tools for the sweaty late night crowds. Made me think of some Gemini tracks when I first heard it (that's a compliment).

This is the first of a 2 volumes series by Crackboy dedicated to raw ghetto house and techno rooted in Chicago (think Armando rather than Larry Heard) on The Thing and Detroit on The Dirt (think Carl Craig's project 69). Both tracks come with amazing and useful dub tools for the real DJs out there. Pure analog power by the true master.

For the fourth instalment of our limited White Label series we welcome the mysterious Parisian producer Crackboy. Sporadically crawling from the depths of the city's underbelly to deliver prime, raw house cuts he has graced the likes of Tigersushi, Get The Curse and I'm A Cliche with musical snapshots of darkness and light. Crackboy's latest is very much the soundtrack to the summer… The cheeky OFF TRACK heats the soul and soles as our feet and body are unable to resist the pounding kick-drum and purple samples. This is set to leave a Crackboy sized imprint on the summer of 2014.

Dysfunction, Hannulelauri’s first EP on I’m a Cliché goes beyond the dreamy, cosmic atmosphere of their previous releases and remixes on other eurodisco labels. The duo’s new sound still sends us floating but with an edgier, more toxic ride. Hannu and Lauri aka Hannulelauri created a track for I’m a Cliché, a remix of Bot’Ox’s hit “Blue Steel”. This track inspired the label to make more room for the Finnish duo and bring their new music into its discography. These two have been active figures in Helsinki’s club scene for quite a while, producing music together since 2006. When they crossed the borders of Finland, the name of the band was pretty hard to retain but it didn’t take long for all the bigwigs of modern disco to memorize it. Two originals and a selection of remixes: Dysfunction steps into the territory of deep melodic house with a classic resonance Box of Box throws around some fun rough beats Toby Tobias’ remix of Dysfunction is iced with elegance and soulfulness Populette’s remix of Box of Box is the new best friend of house dancers.

Cosmo Vitelli, I’m a Cliché’s founder and head, heard the voice of our unruly feet after taking us on a long car journey with Bot’Ox. Night Dogs is his first solo EP in a long time. And he’s back to the dancefloor with an unexpectedly nervous pace. Night Dogs: The main track is a disco-core nocturnal chase, a dark hi-nrg anti-anthem. It features vocals in Korean by visual artist and musician Nakion who has just released an album on Tigersushi records. Running Backwards: For this one, Cosmo goes techno. Get a drink and let your shoes lead you backward. You’ll get a picture of the track’s both dizzy and self-assured feeling. Night Dogs (Daniel Maloso remix): Daniel Maloso of the Hispanic-electronic Cómeme community fame, applies his unquiet dog beats to the track: hard bones and twisted muscles. Night Dogs (Tim Paris remix): Tim Paris from Paris-London, half of It’s a Fine Line with Ivan Smagghe and half of Challenge with Pete Herbert, gets emotional here. It’s like some indie art-rock band playing, though you’re still dancing.
