Browse by Label: ROOTS (GERMANY)


Artist: CAM & CHARLES BELLS, ORTIN
Title: Machine Code
Label: ROOTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: ROOTS 005EP
"Longtime collaborators Ortin Cam and Charles Bells bring the pain in this fifth episode in Roots' saga of uncompromising techno music. Two tracks working in very different ways toward the same goal: total dancefloor destruction. Deep stomper 'Machine Code' is built around the mother of all basslines, while 'Mop Up' sounds like a formation of bombers raiding the dancefloor; peaktime stuff. Bas Mooy takes 'Machine Code' in even deeper, funkier territory, whereas the Detroit Grand Pubah's take on 'Mop Up' has turned it into a druggy trip, complete with deranged percussion and weird voices."


Artist: CAM & CHARLES BELLS, ORTIN
Title: Black
Label: ROOTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: ROOTS 006EP
"Following up on their very well-received previous release on Roots, Ortin Cam and Charles Bells are now consolidating their position with Black; episode 6 of what is rapidly becoming one of Belgium's premier techno imprints. Three different tracks; three showcases of what techno can be in 2010. 'Black' is no holds barred, banging darkness, referring back to the funky, industrial sound many of us still feel techno is all about. 'Saga' is engineered to offer DJs the mother of all breaks, building up to a drop to match. This animal guarantees complete devastation, mercifully releasing the crowd's energy after minutes of anticipation. 'Pyramid' explores a slightly different realm of the genre, making use of dubby effects, voices mangled beyond recognition and a deep, stomping repetitiveness that will pummel listeners and dancers alike into a state of hypnotic detachment."


Artist: ROCKFORD INC.
Title: Like A Rock
Label: ROOTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $13.00
Catalog #: ROOTS 1026EP
"Rockford Inc. is Sullivan Sawyer and Dwight Jenkins who put their souls into their computer and see what comes back out. In this case, it's 'Like a Rock,' a contemplative slow-burner that spreads itself over 11 minutes. On the B-side, 'Mina's Theme' is an uplifting melodic house tune, drenched in optimism, the ideal antidote for dreary dancefloors."
