A brand new iO Music offering from new kid on the block Marc Stage that apparently combines “The Clangers, a pigeon, a rave horn, broken beat rhythm and a nasty baseline into a big industrial blender”. Interesting stuff they say?
German Marc discovered techno in the early 90’s and has played with some of the most talented DJs from the electronic genre, spinning next to the likes of Sven Väth, Paul van Dyk and Mark Spoon, an opportunity which made sure that Marc Stage’s DJ and production style was right up there.
Blush is the first production and uses a funky but yet dark style bass line and with a catchy throbby injection and nagging space age weird tripped out sounds carries it along well. Lots of delayed effects and cutting up and down make it work well for a dance floor. With extra pads, effects and noises it’s a dirty piece of electronica.
Juergens serves a tasty re-rub and introduces some funky as hell shaking drum patterns into the equation with a broody analogue bass and long windy samples with a minimal meets tech lick, the sounds all work and give it a lease of life needed with lazery up and downs.
Martin Heyder chops the samples up for a fresh sharp serving of high frequency sounds, noises and clattering effects for a tech driven and shapeful version. At first it seems slightly less punchy but gradually drops into some nasty and momentous trips.
