Freund Der Familie Germany At Juno Download

Review: Like some of the Workshop releases, Porentief focuses on stripped back, mid-tempo house grooves. On "Marie (vocal mix)", this manifests itself in the shape of lumbering, dubby beats and a grimy, slow-building acid climax. On the title track, FDF sails close to the Lowtec records on Workshop, with slow claps and jazzy chords providing the soundtrack. There is a similar sound on "Chord Juergens"; there, robust drums and warm chords keep on building until the drums get tougher and more prominent in the arrangement. Despite the relatively low tempos, Freund Der Familie succeeds in imbuing the release with an intense musical sensibility.

Review: As Like This shows, NYRA has clearly been schooled in two different sounds. On the title track, the sound of raw tribal house is audible, as heavy beats shuffle and skip, underpinning an insistent vocal sample. There is a radically different approach on "M for Mother"; there, a chugging, dubby groove, scuffled and imperfect is the dominant sound. It's straight from the Basic Channel dub techno textbook. Finally, the 'Sven Adoring Mother' take on the same track is also inspired by a different sound. In this instance, it's the jazzy keys and rasping percussion of 90s deep house that provides the inspiration.
