Catalog #:	RRY 008EP

"Luca Ortega and Mikael Stavöstrand has been collaborating from time to time since spring 2004, meeting up at two different locations on the globe: Mexico City and Berlin. Neither of them are from Berlin tough, but from Mexico City and Stockholm. Maybe it's the combination of the funky warmth of Latin America and cool strictness of Scandinavia who got these guys going... anyway. Together they create small rhythmic masterpieces directed for the funky floors, but with an edgy touch...."

Title:	Join The Ortega & Stavostrand Funk Revolution
Label:	RRYGULAR (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	RRY 017EP

"At Rrygular the second half year begins with a new Ortega & Stavöstrand. After a short summer break, that actually had not really happened here at the label, we call to join the Mexican-Swedish funk revolution. On the A-side you'll find 'Sparkling' with its surrounding percussions. To get yourself oriented there is a bassline which is constantly modulating over the 9 1/2 minutes -- even perhaps traumatizing in the end. On the B-side 'Mandrake' with its repeating, breathing phrase 'everybody... everybody...' is adjuring the people to stay and dance on the floor. The final track 'O Amour' is a bit more punchy, but still comes with a moving funkiness. On this twelve inch Ortega & Stavöstrand play around with more details compared to their first one on the label last year. So the term minimal is not really appropriate anymore. Maybe it's more like funk'n'groove with a good portion of a technoid drive."
