Continuing our 25 years celebration of Fluid Ounce Records, we have another curveball from NYC's very own Archetyp, who returns with a rugged, skewed dancefloor weapon "Ostinato Techno".
A loopy, low-slung stomper, this feels like how a collaboration between Karizma, JeffMills and Kaytranada would sound if they ever hit a studio together - a warped cross-section of Karizma's raw drums, Jeff Mills' urgency, and Kaytranada's swagger. It's visceral, it's synthy, it's distorted, it's disjointed, it's heavy, always heavy and it bounces just right. Heads down, system up - this one's for the shape-throwers.
Biog…
NYC-based producer Arch_typ (aka Charles Noel, Archetype, Arch Tight) is no stranger to the international electronic music scene. Known for his genre-straddling productions and DJ sets, he's performed live at the Sonar Music Festival in Barcelona, Spain and toured internationally several times, playing in Japan, Germany, Switzerland,
Poland, Belgium as well as many dates all over North America. He also founded 2122 Corporation, releasing multiple singles and EPs featuring artists like Dan Curtin, Nu Era (4 Hero), Morgan Geist (Metro Area), Titonton, Todd Sines and FBK. He launched his Archetype alias in the mid 90's to cultivate his love for House, Deep Techno and Hip-Hop, and his current work presents a unique blend of Classic Funk sensibilities with the spirit of Detroit Techno and West London Broken Beat fused with Deep House melodies. Considered by his peers as one of the leading future music producers in NYC, Arch_typ's music is being charted worldwide and can be heard from influential labels such as Theory, Black Nation, Soleil Records, Raw Fusion, Ongaku, Sonid Mind, Public Transit Records, Cookin, Bagpack and more.
