Q&A and Premiere with New York City Minimal, House and Techno Influenced Live Composition Trio N/UM

/in /by

N/UM are a New York City trio composed of Jeremy Loucas on drum machines, samples and mixing;  Emil Bovbjerg on synths and vocals; and Elias Meister on guitar and bass.

On December 8th they are releasing YES on their own Ninetofire label, their second production outing following their debut album Zebra (Duro). YES is a four-track EP recorded live in a single take before an audience at House of Yes in Brooklyn. Created in free improvisation, the tracks flow into each other seamlessly in such a way that a small element of one track is often transformed into the main part of the next. After all, this is how N/UM always operate, producing minimal, house and techno on the fly, whether in the studio or on tour, and recording it for release. The result is always something original, making their project and ambitions unique in an industry where studio sessions often see producers go anywhere but the strictly live composition route.  It’s a sight to behold, as they use classic instruments such as the 808, 909, SH-101 and Mono/Poly paired with their inventive use of voices, guitar and unique samples to produce something completely original with each and every take.

6AM is excited to be presenting the exclusive premiere of “Elastica” from the forthcoming EP, which you can stream below. We also caught up with N/UM in honor of the occasion to learn more about their project and life in the Big Apple.

Premiere: Listen to Denis Rodd “Minotaur” Out Soon on Cochlea Music

/in /by

After the organic and natural-sounding debut, Denis Rodd was inspired by Greek mythology and modern cinematography for his second EP, which is out on Cochlea Music this coming November 24th.

In the opening track,“Charlie & The Acid Factory,” the label founder is found grasping Tim Burton‘s fantasy fairy tale Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and replacing the chocolate with acid, creating a track that has an alluring beat.

The energetic density increases in the track “Slow,” the drum machines and plug-in sounds pushing the vocals forward, which in any case aren‘t slow at all. Or is it the exact opposite? Tribal magic emanates the ’40s and ’50s Blues in the vocal samples, a touch of African ancestral culture, jazz trumpets – the minor scales are hypnotically similar to the techno scales.

In the title track “Minotaur,” which we are premiering today, Denis Rodd finally transforms the bull-headed monster from the ancient legend into a hybrid with a fidgety techno skull, and body and soul made from warm Deep House. Bittersweet, melancholic and yet joyful is the captivity in Minotaur’s labyrinth of BPM, melodic murmurs, small surprises and contrasting sound events.
