Title:	The Ruling Ideas
Label:	DRUMPOET COMMUNITY (SWITZERLAND)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	DPC 038EP

Zurich-based Florin Büchel aka CCO (which basically stands for Contra Communem Opinionem), presents four slices of raw Chicago house. It is liquid, sensual music that sounds like machines, always looking for the feeling beyond the beat. His previous releases on Geneva's Plak, EPs on Chicago's Mathematics Recordings, and one EP on Lux Records were properly made analog and dedicated to the vintage sound of the old days. CCO creates a robotic, yet melodic deep sound. Danceable, definitely -- even hypnotic.

Title:	The Social Changes
Label:	PLAK (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	PLK 023EP

CCO aka Contra Commumem Opinionem has released two EPs on the Chicago-based label Mathematics that were played a lot at the Plak office. Here are two slices of raw Chicago techno/house carefully crafted & extended for Plak: the moody atmosphere of "Structural Constraints" will fly you far, far away, and "Structural Drift" contains spiritual momentum with a liquid 303 lead and sensual pads for your chemical Sunday therapy. This piece of wax is an analog affair, no software.

"CCMC has passed through many phased over its 20-year residency at Toronto's renowned Music Gallery, with 8 recordings and tours of North America, Europe and Japan. The band's latest incarnation, a trio whose three members have been described in The Toronto Star as 'each an artistic powerhouse and pioneer in his own right,' has original member MIchael Snow (piano, synthesizer) flanked by alto sax wizard John (Plunderphonics) Oswald and sound-singer Paul Dutton. Together they perpetuate the CCMC commitment to improvisatory exploration and innovation, with process taking precedence and form evolving organically in a shifting tapestry of textures and timbres." Recorded live in 1996-'97.
