Artist:	CHAPTAL, JULIEN
Title:	Tokens
Label:	REMOTE AREA (NETHERLANDS)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	REMOTE 001CD

This is the debut full-length release by French producer Julien Chaptal -- one of the up-and-coming artists of the new Amsterdam electronic underground. Spearheaded by labels like 100% Pure, Intacto, and Remote Area, and reinforced with releases by Shinedoe, 2000 And One, Kabale Und Liebe, Anton Pieete and Polder, the Amsterdam scene has managed to put itself back on the international map. On Tokens, Chaptal teams up with Daniel "Mumbling" Sanchez and Carlos "Screaming" Valdes. Compared to the other new minimal-, techno- and house-producers in Amsterdam, Chaptal's sound is definitely different. This music breathes his musical roots: the French house that dominated dance music and especially his hometown Paris, in the second half of the '90s. This beautiful collection of tracks is the best proof that Chaptal is one of the finest talents Amsterdam has to offer. The grooves are house-y, deep and funky, the subtle melodies fresh and uplifting. Several tracks can cause severe damage on the dancefloor, as already was proven by the happy few that were able to play them in front of a crowd, like Remote Area label boss Dylan Hermelijn (2000 and One). Chaptal had his first break with his own group Le Clic, which has so far only released one 12", but became a popular live act in The Netherlands. He has also performed with the 6-piece Amsterdam 661, consisting of six members of the burgeoning Amsterdam scene: Lauhaus, David Labeij, Quazar, Boris Werner, and Kabale Und Liebe. He also produced a 12" with Lauhaus, which became a solid international club hit. Tokens is a great album, and proof that French house is alive and living in Amsterdam.

This is the debut full-length release by super-duo Gimikk aka Daniel "Mumbling" Sanchez and Eelco Augustijn (aka E-Contact), yet another live/production outfit sprouted from the fertile techno soil of Amsterdam. After two well-received EPs of totally innovative minimalistic tribal house and a lot of hard work, Untitled Concept is a killer collection of tracks set to shake up dancefloors around the globe. With movement in mind and a range of inspirations in their hearts, Daniel and Eelco created 8 tracks carrying the same compelling and hypnotic quality; yet each expresses a different mood or feeling. The outcome is a treat for the ears as well as the feet. Daniel and Eelco showcase a deep sense of dancefloor dynamics on this album. From the dreamy chords of "Lovely Way" to the wobbly grooves of "Dutch Moment;" from the percussive mindfucks of "Paranoid Nerd" to the luscious flows of "Soulboy" -- each track is made up of the same effective rhythms bound to set any dancefloor aflame. Untitled Concept is suitable for different DJs and occasions; be it the peak-time power of "Complex Construction" or the 7AM-like deepness of "Movement," the album has something for each moment of the night. Daniel and Eelco aptly named their album Untitled Concept, because they know that everybody listens to music in a different way -- thus leaving room for interpretation.
