"Revisiting the defining track from Zorn's Apnoe mini album which dropped late last year. Mariengraben is literally the deepest part of the ocean, where all is murk, mystery and darkness. First remixer to the line is Christian Kleine, who by now should need no introduction to readers of these pages, for a wonderfully deep piece of four-four, an aquatic visit to some of the territory his last Firn EP suggested. Sublime stuff. Next up is Boulderdash, Hans Möller, one half of the much fancied Boy Robot, who settles on bass elements, movin the track further from its steppers basis to a deep sea ride, slippery but still with a huge amount of bleeped-out-funk. Arne Van Petegem's Styrofoam project ties up the first side, pushing the tempo into a proper 004 dubsteppa style, adding biscuit tin drums and some nifty melodic exploration. Hey-o-Hansen begin faithful to the original, then preside over a more dubbed up, rustic skewed folk approach. Pony m, known to his mum as Sasha Rozet, half of Rockin' Pony, develops on his fine album for Lux, shifting and altering perspective with a dope head nodder, while Blatter's Akira Shiozawa takes us apparently inside the diving bell, with a delicious, breathy, ethereal deep dub. Jonesco from Nottingham first surprised us with his lovely electroacoustic album for Zorn's own Engelszorn imprint, here he sets everything to rewind with uncanny and pleasantly unsettling results."
