专辑简介

"Transform EP" is the debut release from turkish producer Janbaz and berlin based MRI duo. While the project is new, MRI's Stephan Lieb is no stranger to the scene. Recording solo as MRI / Croon Inc. for Resopal, he has established a loyal following with his house experimentalism where he puts texture, distance and longing to good effect in its melodic, grainy ambiance. Transform EP is MRI's latest project, which was formed in 2011 when he paired up with partner Janbaz. Instead of house loops, the duo thrives on highly distressed, lo-fi beauty classic house, formed by a more process-intensive creation. MRI supplies vocals (recorded through a mobile phone for effect) as pretty as they are creepy, adding an otherworldly sense of fragility to the dark and melancholic compositions made of noisy, tonal layers that sound as though they're on the verge of breaking apart. The three other tunes are by Janbaz alone and pushes the boundaries that Resopal has set with its tactile, electro-acoustic, ambient minimalism, touching on the label's occasional forays, yet bringing something decidedly darker to the table.
