Paris-based producer Alexandre Bazin returns to Umor Rex with another side to his music approach. If in Full Moon (2016) he explored the analog electronic music merged with classical minimalism, in this new work, Bazin dives into totally rhythmic terrains while maintaining his devotion to electronic exploration and acoustic drums. Four Steps even rubs shoulders without discretion with techno music and the dancefloor, and retains his refined obsession with melody and structure. In these pieces, Bazin lends space to electronic soundscapes, experimentation, and computer programming, everything derived from precise compositions. With melodies created with Buchla Music Easel, EMS Synthi, among other instruments, Four Steps -- through the drone and ambient music -- crosses roads with elegant and infinite techno loops. The album is a four-track EP released in vinyl 12" in 45 rpm, finely mastered by John Tejada with a focal point in harmonics and dimension, offering an exquisite hi-fidelity experience even for the digital lossless audience. Alexandre Bazin has been a member of the France GRM (Groupe de Recherches Musicales) since 2005. Composed and mixed by Alexandre Bazin at Château Rouge. Drums in "Four Steps III" by François Desmoulins. Mastered by John Tejada in Sherman Oaks. Artwork and photos by Daniel Castrejón in Mexico City. Die-cut sleeve; 45rpm; includes download code; edition of 300.
