Premiere: One Track Brain Releases Five-Tracker Inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s “2001 Space Odyssey”

/in , , /by

One Track Brain‘s latest EP is inspired by one specific scene from Stanley Kubrick’s cult movie 2001 Space Odyssey, the one where the monolith appears among a bunch of apes: The Dawn of Man.

“Nightlife and partying and dancing has to do with letting go. With losing yourself in the moment and going back to the basic knowledge of the body. And sometimes it even brings out the ape in us (laughs). Letting go of your inhibitions and allowing yourself to feel more raw emotions and naive togetherness. Just like that basic feeling of bewilderment and excitement when the apes see that monolith. So in that way, bring out the APE!“ – One Track Brain

Premiere: Listen to Aggborough’s ‘Talos Principle’ off his Forthcoming Stone Circle EP

/in /by

William Green aka Aggborough recently featured on The Rhubarb Triangle, a various release on his own imprint No Real Value which bases each track released on field recordings sourced by William himself. Continuing this signature style, Aggborough presents the EP Stone Circle. The title track is built around a recording of a contact microphone strapped to a dancing flag pole in Iceland. With this, the percussion is organic and raw. The hypnotic nature of “Stone Circle” bleeds into “Not Tripping” which started as a bootleg of “It’s Love (Tripping)” by Goldtrix, but evolved into it’s own creature completely. Deeply rooted and pulsing, “Saving Bacon” is a workout of varied percussion, carefully placed atmospheres and frisky chords. “Talos Principle” is left to show a more aggressive side to Aggborough, featuring more noise oriented drums while also keeping the atmospheres intact.

Today we are premiering this fourth track, “Talos Principle” from the forthcoming EP which is scheduled for April 21st release. The track was developed out of an atmospheric interlude for Aggborough’s liveshow. A staggering groove with quirky sounds and fills popping up unexpectedly.

Listen to the track below and read back here for our interview with William from last month:

“”5 Essential Tunes with…” is a feature on 6AM that explores underground dance music artist’s current favorite tracks, in an effort to showcase the best productions currently making the rounds in the world of techno, house, tech house and deep house.”

We did not choose One Track Brain to be interviewed for our first installment of this feature by chance. We found irony in asking an artist whose name in and of itself focuses on “one track” to select his current five favorite tunes, and were more than curious to see what the results would be.
