SIS may have been a latecomer to electronic music, but he made up for lost time in no time with releases for Cécille and Sei Es Drum, including the infamous anthem "Trompeta" in 2008. Now SIS is preparing to unleash his leftfield percussive sound with his debut project for Get Physical Music, the EP 'SIS IS SIS'. For this release, SIS turns his hand to remixing some of the finest tracks in the Get Physical catalogue. On the A side we find Audiofly's recent hit "Fela"; an Afrobeat infused slow-house burner. SIS' rework favours hollow percussion and shuffling, scraping ambience. The hypnotic bass loop and pulsing mid-note tether the track to its foundations as voices float and freefall and Rhodes phrases are stretched and swollen beyond recognition. Occasional drums and bass re-inject the original track's tribal appeal, but SIS still keeps it in a feverish, psychedelic dancefloor state. Flipping over to the B side of the EP, M.A.N.D.Y.'s "4+1". The track originally appeared as a sparkling melodic highlight of M.A.N.D.Y.'s iconic At The Controls mix of 2006. SIS' new treatment adds hypnotic waves of ambience, while transforming in into an intricate work of sounds design. Within it, string noises move inwards and outwards from all angles as the extended arc of the track shapeshifts through a myriad of electronic shades and textures. Digitaly, SIS brings us his interpretation of even more of Get Physical's Gems. Dusted off, and each with their own distinct flavor, they work together as a strong release for SIS, proving he's here, and here to stay. In celebration of the EP, SIS will embark on a tour, sharing his creation with the world.

A LOPAZZ - Migracion (SIS Edit) B Matthew Dear - Free To Ask (SIS Edit)
After the success of the first vinyl, we are proud to present to you SIS IS SIS, Vinyl Edition #2, featuring SIS's edits of LOPAZZ and Matthew Dear on Get Physical. Picking up where the 1st edition left off, SIS takes more of his favorite Get Physical tracks and puts his own spin on them. On the A side we start off with LOPAZZ's 2004 Get Physical debut, "Migracion". A hit in it's own right, SIS takes us even deeper into the groove with a stepped up bass and heated percussion track layered over reverberated chords. Next SIS pulls out a heavy Matthew Dear track, "Free To Ask" featured exclusively on Get Physical's 7th Anniversary compilation, and lightens the mood a bit while still managing to maintain the heavy bass kick. Cleaning the synth to create a more percussive feel, and utilizing crisp claps to keep the rhythm in check.

In the last time, there is hardly a producer within the field of electronic music who has experienced such a comet-like rise like Burak Sar aka Sis. After his first successful records on 8Bit and Cecille Records, it were his 2008 EPs "Nesrib" (Cecille) and "Trompeta/Clarinete" on Ricardo Villalobos' label Sei es drum that everybody could agree upon. No wonder that the Berlin resident was able to reach the top positions in the categories Best Producer and Best Track in both the Groove Mag as well as in the Raveline Magazine. The mixture of hypnotic reduction and the high recognition value of his sound are fitting perfectly to the label programme of Cocoon Recordings, and thus it is not surprising at all that Sar is able to prove his qualities here, too. "Sceam" is a trip through vocal-like echo chambers that is losing itself within the depth of reverb, its oriental aesthetics being similarly credible as the tidy bass beat is. Nobody else has catapulted Baby Ford's ifach sound into the year 2010 as consequently as Sis did. The flipside "Break Down" is a little more hesitating, a dazzling and percussive Dub-House sensuality from the infinite loop, that makes you look forward to the first album, which is to be released on the artist's own label Cocolino.
