简介

The working thesis was to make a new sort of R?n?B for the experimental techno label Chain Reaction. Well aware that it would never end up anywhere near that, you can still find distinct elements from both worlds in the music: Small samples of old hiphop, soul and hiphouse records show the respect back in time. Acidic 303 synth lines and experimental dub techniques pave the way forward in the techno tradition. Vocal lines dubbed to indistinctive atmospheric echoes and steady double-layered drum tracks reveal the Basic Channel affection. Lars Pellarin and Kim Lenler met at Norberg festival 2003 where Statler & Waldorf were looking for contributors to the electronic hiphop compilation ?Teeth?. One of the things that caught our ear was the act labelled +12db (a.k.a. Kim Lenler). Kim Lenler has a long association with the Danish techno community as a DJ in the early 90s. Later moving on to more experimental music and noise-scapes, where he is investigating new developments at the moment. Being an active member and assisting organizer with the music organisation Subotnick brings a special niche-expertise. This, and Pellarin?s weakness for pop and other works of art, fed the many nights of beer-fuelled dinners and playing records for each other. Somewhere along the way they agreed to start making music together, starting out with testing the homemade delay setup from Pellarin?s previous album (Athen, 2003) in a cooperative context. Everything is made as live recording sessions, resulting in an archive with more than 80 different recordings, and at least 3 different threads of styles. The editing and selection process has been as important and difficult as the actual recording and production. To make the link between their electronic background and contemporary pop, various vocalists have been invited to join the project. They include · Raz Ohara (Kitty Yo, Ware, Kanzleramt, Huume), · Danish band Antenne (Leaf, Korm Plastics, Orthlorng Musork, Staalplaat), · Pernille Pang of Tigerbaby, · and finally the album feature a highly original rendition of a song by Swedish "The Plan" (Majesty/EMI).
