巧妙?アブノーマル?特異なビート感覚を炸裂させたエレクトロニックダンス・ブロークンビート!シアトルから出現した〈TECH STARTUP〉のファーストリリースが強烈。オーガニックパーカッションとエレクトロがシンクロ、滑り込む歪んだヴォイスサンプル。要注目のニュープロジェクトA PSYCHIC YES!
Psychic Yes and Tech Startup founder Rafael fortuitously met on a Berlin dance floor in late 2017. A long period of digital correspondence followed between Berlin and Seattle, culminating in the inaugural release of the Seattle-based Tech Startup label: TS000001. The project, to be released on November 9th, is comprised of 5 tracks built up from initial recordings of percussion, trumpet, and synthesizers honed into drum-focused dance pieces in the melancholy Berlin winter of 2018. Split in function between the two sides, Side A features dancefloor-ready tracks with Side B containing introspective songs geared towards a home-listening environment.
Field recordings of Scottish stone slates mark the opening track Stone Sound, a tribal-leaning dancefloor cut highlighted by syncopated, pounding percussion and discreet melodies. Spacemaker features organic, sparse breakbeats cloaked in bright, hazey melodies. Delicated is a track that delights as a series of melodic characters move around one another in a foggy electronic atmosphere. Aldhini Theme emerges as the standout track on Side B commencing with undulating sequenced bloops and bleeps that slowly build into a hypnotic slow-burner that resolves on a melody.

それぞれベルリンとシアトルに拠点を置くRAFAELとTIMOTHYなる人物、一年以上の国を超えた共闘の末に始動したA PSYCHIC YESのデビューシングルがドロップ!シンコペーションするシンセサイザーとパーカッション、”マッド”なヴォイスチョップが助長させるポリリズムの罠「Stone Sound」(sample1)から怒涛の5フロアボムトラックを展開。ガムランのようなウワ音アンサンブルの導入からブレイク明けのウエイトレスなジャングルビート「Delicated」(sample2)、スローなBPMでトライバルビートサイエンスを披露した「Aldhini Theme」(sample3)、全トラックが物凄い。トラックリストからも是非!
