Price:
$9.00
Catalog #:
ACRE 017EP
"Von D is a man on a mission, a mission only a Parisian would dare undertake. When Jerome Meyer gets on the buttons, he's here to inject some sexy back into the testosterone prone dubstep scene. Given the now classic status of his 'Show Me' track and previous successes here on Black Acre, he seems to be succeeding. Miss Maui is a slinky sultry house inflected dubbed out roller. Alluring vocals supplied by beat poet Moxy Phinx, whose tales of a mystery woman ignite memories of Little Louis'
French Kiss
. On the flip, Von D enlists the vocal talents of Jamaican verbal flame-thrower, Warrior Queen. The militant soundwaves explored in this late night floor destroyer display a sound palette both varied and focused. Von-D once again solidifying his reputation as dubstep's new renaissance man. Support: Mary Anne Hobbs, DJ Chef, Skream, Hatcha, Nick Argon."

Title:
Echolow/Truth
Label:
BLACK ACRE (UK)
Format:
12"
Price:
$11.00
Catalog #:
ACRE 009EP
"Exposed from birth to the multi-cultural ethos of the Paris suburbs, a young Von D found his soul's conduit in a beat up drum kit. While the riddims of King Tubby fused and morphed into the foetal jungle of Photek, Serge Gainsborg issued instructions from the radio. A fusion chef of bassweight Von D deftly slices into unpredictable genres, concocting strange and beautiful new forms. Echolow takes a proto-junglist break heavy sound palate back into early '90s acid house clubland. With £15 pill in hand we are dragged to floor by the galloping percussion and expansive subs as Von D snatches at soul samples and contorts them into metallic computer sirens. 'Truth' is a late night journey through neon reflecting wet streets of Paris. Haunting chords are aided in setting the nocturnal scene by sparkling pianos, while sinister intent is provided by the cloak of subs. Just when you belted up and ready to cruise a bruising 4x4 kick and angular square bass stomp on the accelerator propelling you into the night. In essence 'Truth' is about balance, an uneasy truce between opposites creating a breathtaking new sound. Support : Mary Anne Hobbs, Headhunter, Joe Nice, N Type, Chef, Nick Argon, Tes La Rok, Zed Bias, DJ Thinking."

Title:
Coquine/Truth (Tes La Rok Remix)
Label:
BLACK ACRE (UK)
Format:
12"
Price:
$11.00
Catalog #:
ACRE 011EP
"Paris' premier producer of 'sexy' dubstep returns with the acid heavy, Chicago influenced
Coquine
. Stomping kick drums tumble under a barrage of squeltchy stabs and dusty snares with a big nod back to warehouse raves of old. Once the crowd has erupted into euphoric overdrive the track drops in the radio crackled Spanish dialogue of a lady who could well be a long lost flame of the Parisian love merchant. The peace is abruptly ended with textured reverse synthwork and an overall more hip hop aesthetic. Pon de flip Helsinki badman and dubstep pioneer Tes La Rok steps up on remix duties. Here he takes 'Truth' deep, abyss deep. Hypnotic 8bit frequencies float over a submariners wet dream of a subscape. Proper rib cracking dub business. Support: Laurent Garnier, Skream, Scuba, Baobinga, DJ Chef, Nick Argon, Clouds."
