Random News #3 (April 2012)

Here we are with our new issue of Random News for April 2012!

Lot’s been going on and we are all working brutally hard to get the best out of it, so we’ll be swift and on point! (Ok, consider this “brutally” part as a joke – we’re actually enjoying this!)

Let’s begin with some news for 2econd Class Citizen since there’s a lot going on due to the release of his outstanding “Outside Your Doorway EP” and the long-anticipated full length “The Small Minority” which will drop next month (!)…

——————————————————————————————————————————–

Outside Your Doorway EP news

About a week ago, we announced the release of the digital version for 2CC‘s new EP entitled “Outside Your Doorway” and we’re already getting some amazing feedback.

Here’s a small portion of what’s been said:

Trippin’ The Rift

Data Transmission
http://www.datatransmission.co.uk/ViewReview/3161/

Also note that “Outside Your Doorway” is now available on Last FM
http://www.lastfm.de/music/2econd+Class+Citizen/Outside+Your+Doorway+EP

Aside from that we have gained some really positive feedback from a bunch of like minded artists that really enjoyed the new album:

“Really lovely moments on here. Nice…”
Fink (Ninja Tune)

“Your Album sounds great, congratulations! I definitely want to check out your record collection as you obviously had some crazy stuff!”
DJ Format

“okay man, I gotta tell you: your album is fucking BEAUTIFUL. I’m in love with it already. So lush! I’m about 2/3 in but I just thought I’d ‘live text’ it! Incredible work brother.“
Buddy Peace

“I’m loving your album so much, the layers and subtleties in it are amazing. The pace is generally slow and the mood melancholy but it never feels morose or depressing, there’s a kind of beautiful sadness to it, and such gorgeous acoustic samples.”
DJ Food (Ninja Tune)

“Great work! Proper chilly out sample loveliness!”
Olli Teeba (Herbaliser, Ninja Tune)

Last (but not least), the main track of the EP is also featured on “Tape of The Month: April 2012” on “Παλιοτράκτερα” (ok, this may seem Greek to you but still on point)
paliotraktera.gr

——————————————————————————————————————————–

Additional 2econd Class Citizen news…

In the past Random News issue (#2 March 2012) we mentioned DJ Food’s new album “The Search Engine” in which 2CC is featured… Well, here’s an astonishing new single from this album, entitled “The Illectrik Hoax” which also features a remix by 2econd Class Citizen.

Find out more about it here:
http://ninjatune.net/release/dj-food/the-illectrik-hoax-a-monstrous-psychedelic-bubble-mix-by-the-amorphous-androgynous

——————————————————————————————————————————–

Switching to DJ Scientist

First, we’d like to share an amazing remix that DJ Scientist did back in 2003 for the track “It Ain’t Nothing Like” by The Pharcyde. This remix also reveals the – unknown to most – funky side of the Equinox Records’ founder!

Listen, download and share.
http://soundcloud.com/djscientist/the-pharcyde-nuttin-like

Continuing, here is a really nice review on DEAD Magazine for the rare (even digitally) “The Artless Cuckoo EP”
http://www.deadmagazine.de/2012/04/07/dj-scientist-the-artless-cuckoo-ep/

For those who missed it, this was released in February as an ultra-limited vinyl and also limited-time digital release, as an announcement for DJ Scientist’s upcoming full length instrumental album. So be on the lookout!

Here’s the official “Artless Cuckoo” release page: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx034/

David Vangel – Split Visionary – Official Video

Today, we are proud to present you the amazing new video of David Vangel’s “Split Visionary”, directed by Henry Mak & Sean Dunnigan!

Following Sandpaper Script, Split Visionary is the second video of David Vangel’s “Bradth Control” album which was released about a year ago on Equinox Records.

Enjoy & share with your friends!

——————————————————————————————————————————–

Also,

To celebrate the airing of this video, we came up with a special offer which will be valid until Sunday, April 29^th and only on our e-shop, and it goes like this:
If you purchase the Vinyl or CD version (or both) of David Vangel’s “Breadth Control” album, shipping costs will NOT apply! Yes, so that’s FREE Worldwide Shipping!

To benefit from this offer, follow the link bellow to go directly to our e-shop:
http://www.e-q-x.net/shop/david-vangel/

——————————————————————————————————————————–

About the album…

“Breadth Control“, the debut full length from David Vangel (formerly Vangel), is a mind altering affair loaded with emotive melodies, explosive dynamics, and savage gauntlets of fierce drum programming. Raising the bar, the 13-track collection is a fusion of sampling and live instrumentation, including elements of hiphop, jazz, indie rock, electronic, gentle psychedelia, and even world music. The journey of “Breadth Control” is intense; moving listeners with orchestral string arrangements and an overall cinematic quality that creates abstract visions ranging from optimism to melancholy.

On a thematic level, “Breadth Control” is an exploration of the scope of human thinking while it is engaged in sound and music. A musical experience that is the intermingling of genres, the debut LP is the future of electronic music from the brain of one of Canada’s most prominent sound pioneers.

For more info and shop links, please visit the official release page here: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/david-vangel-breadth-control/

Also, be sure to watch Vangel‘s Sandpaper Script as well as the Breadth Control Preview video on YouTube.

Best regards,
The Equinox Records team.

Equinox 2012 Calendar Available Now!

In cooperation with the Berlin-based designer Sara Krines, Equinox Records presents a very special and limited wall calendar for 2012. The experimental calendar is like the long-form version of a TokyoFlash watch: There’s a learning curve you need to get around before you can read it.

As Krines describes it,

My approach is to organize time (months, weeks and days) in an unusual way. Taking my personal needs into consideration, I designed a calendar which divides the year into 12 months. Each month is divided into 7 fields which represent the days of the week. Within these fields, the dates, which fall on that particular weekday in the respective month, are listed.

For example: In January 2012 the 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th fall on a Monday. Therefore these dates are shown within the field of Monday, January 2012. In addition, I developed a very easy code to replace words (names of months and weeks). This code underlines the cubistic form of the calendar and is explained in a graphic which is printed on the packaging.

Additionally to the calendar, there is a limited and exclusive CD compilation called “Re/Introspective 2011/12” that contains 12 tracks featuring Ceschi, Deckard, 2econd Class Citizen, Sole And The Skyrider Band, Misanthrop & Aqua Luminus III., J. Baracuz, David Vangel, Geste, Andreikelos, PollyJean and DJ Scientist. The tracks are partly unreleased and give a brief outlook of what to expect from our label in 2012 as well as giving a retrospective view on some music that has been released via Equinox in 2011.

The calendar package with the CD is a MUST HAVE for all Equinox fans and collectors and will be sold out quickly (25 copies only!). Don’t hesitate to place your order as soon as it is available.

The calendar is available for purchase HERE.

SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT

Notes: The calendar comes seperated as 12 monthly fields as well as the “2012” field and can be put together with double side duct tape (included in package). Calendar and CD are delivered in a beautifully designed package in DIN A4 size. The total measure of the calendar is approx. 70 x 90 cm.
