Browse by Label: SPACE FACTORY (FRANCE)


Artist: CANZIAN, ADRIANO
Title: Amy Nitrate
Label: SPACE FACTORY (FRANCE)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SFC 018EP
"Amyl Nitrate (commonly known as popper) is a chemical compound. It has a long history of safe medical use in treating angina. It's also often inhaled with the goal of enhancing sexual pleasure. Inhaling nitrates relaxes smooth muscles all over the body, including the sphincter muscles of the anus and the vagina. Listening to the original version, it is easy to understand the reason behind such a title. A dark and obsessive techno-bass in its depths. Acid, nervous loops on the surface. Sex and sweat everywhere. Here and there, two surrealistic, hypnotic melodies breaking the darkness of the bass loop. A mix of sharp and round, deeper sounds. The vinyl version also features 3 great remixes: The amazing electro-minimal rmx by The Hacker, the spiritual-dark rmx by Rubén Montesco and the fresh club rmx by Produkkt."


Artist: MINI
Title: Chronicles Remixes
Label: SPACE FACTORY (FRANCE)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SFC 019EP
"Mini's dry vocalss tells a story that turns out unexpectedly and makes you travel through the piece. Razor sharp bass and square drums take the lead with a certain melancholic and personnal touch. Airy pads and glitchy rhythms keep you on the edge. Ascii Disko's version brings the deep and floaty side to surface. Remember Kotai? Deep bass, spooky pads progressively bringing the track to it's climax with an 'acid' influenced breakdown. David Carretta's remix arises the dramatic side of the track with a new melody to accompany the lyrics and keep the thrill, while a new beat influenced bassline drives the track to it's full intensity."


Artist: PLASTIQUE DE REVE
Title: Love On The Tape EP
Label: SPACE FACTORY (FRANCE)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SFC 020EP
"Plastique De Rêve's new single on David Carretta's label Space Factory Disques follows up on 2008's fantastic release on DFA with 'It's Summer !!,' a perfect techno-pop summer hit with another great feature by vocalist Ghostape, and dives further into the realms of electro-disco, synth-pop and cosmic music. Ultra synthetic and light-hearted, yet dreamy and emotional, the three tracks each capture with authenticity the essence of electronic disco music but pay tribute to it here in a very original, playful and modern way. 'It's Summer !!' is a great follow-up to Plastique De Rêve's previous singles on DFA and Supersoul Recordings, also featuring Ghostape on vocals. This time the music goes even deeper into the worlds of synth-pop and electronic disco, with reminiscences of Vince Clarke's Yazoo, Giorgio Moroder or Kelley Polar. The sunny, laidback, 'pop radio' atmosphere, together with Ghostape's emotional build up of the deliberately simplest lyrics ever written so far, might well keep you smiling, and dancing, all summer. 'Dance On' continues in this 'early Depeche Mode' direction but adds a more romantic and retro touch, this time with Plastique himself using the vocoder's harmonic qualities to create a hypnotic and emotional atmosphere. 'Love On The Tape' is a beautiful track with just a bassline and a vocoded voice that Plastique had recorded in 1999 already, singing along to a Commodore 64 with a Korg Vocoder. It's a very personal, emotional track about love and loss, paralleled with nostalgia for discarded technological music instruments and recording formats: the Commodore 64 computer, the vocoder, the tape recorder... This recently re-worked 'rhythm version' creates a more dynamic 'cosmic disco' feel by adding subtle beats, catchy melodic synth lines and deep sweeping sounds to the original."
