OSTGUT 120EP
|
Detroit native Ryan Elliott has made a handful of weighty contributions to both Berghain and Ostgut Ton. A DJ's perspective has informed Elliott's own analog productions, with Paul's Horizon turning its focus toward deep and slick percussion. This is apparent from the get-go, with the title track's triangle/clap interplay, funky 5-6 kicks per bar, and bleary-eyed atmosphere. "Martinsville Morning" slows down into an understated sunrise groover, led by bassline, strings, and pads. "Grafton Road" turns up the pace again with gasps for hats, aggressive punctuating snares, and a modulating synth bubbling-up throughout.

OSTGUT 068EP
|
Ryan Elliott presents his second 12" EP for Ostgut Ton. The Stepmode EP builds a bridge between euphoria and darkish club moments. The title track begins with flowing hi-hats and scratched shakers as Ryan prepares the audience for his groove. The following combination of tender synths and funky vocals are merely touched upon and sent through the echoes just at the right point in time. "Stillsteppin" feels darker with hypnotic strings, delay-infused strokes, haunted stabs and driving bass line.

OSTGUT 044EP
|
Detroit's Ryan Elliott is a recognized force on the international DJ circuit -- yet his productions are few and far between. Now relocated to Berlin, the new Berghain resident contributed his track "Abatis" to the Fünf anniversary compilation, setting the tone with dark and brooding techno undercurrents. These two new tracks bring Ryan's production skills to the fore; both slow-burning and refined recordings that show off his love for bass-line-led, straight-forward club tools.
