Berlin’s Sawlin has been delivering his twist on contemporary techno over the past decade via releases on ARTS, Delsin and its sub-label Ann Aimee, Speedy J’s Electric Deluxe and more. Here though we see Sawlin oining the Freund Der Familie to deliver the fifth instalment of the label’s ‘Raw’ series.
After two decades of releasing music on 12“ vinyl under multiple pseudonyms the duo from Even Drones have completed their first LP. The 20 track double vinyl carries the classic “album era” approach of the 60s and 70s into a modern contemporary work.
Each of the 4 sides of „Ethics“ feels like the chapter of a story balanced into a synthesis of counterpoints from piece to piece. Twisted arrangements are stringed together with dance-able tracks and are woven into finespun transmutations of sounds. Sometimes peaceful and regulated, sometimes abstract and complemented with tamed feedback, noises, crackling and delightful patterns.
Like a continuous thread through all titles of the album, the multi instrumentalists somehow managed to harmonize a twisted array of methods and structures into a coherent listening experience. This full feature-length metamorphosis with no boundaries of styles or genres is released just in time for the 10th anniversary of the band on Freund der Familie.
Exceptional Debut LP from Achim Maerz on Freund der Familie. Super versatile tracks far beyond from standard.
Nearly seven years after the release of the debut album “ALFA”, FDF still has not enough. Two track EP with remixes by none other than Filburt and the probably most underrated artists from Berlin “Even Drones”.
Return of the magical duo QY on Freund der Familie. Three soulful songs for romantic adventures for him and her.
“Drum n Bass filled House Music with 90´s percussion, beatless Techno, spacey Ambient, spaced out Electronica, stripped down Deephouse, detroitish Bass Music and melodic synths. Very very interesting release!”
(Andreas Tölle)
“Gorgeous sophomore album by Freund Der Familie. Whatever they offer: ambient, electronica, half way dubstep, ambienttechno, house, techno, breakbeat, they always put in their signature deepness. Although they´re playing with tons of genres this 2×12″ is a super duper highly entertaining album showing off what FDF is capable of: Masters Of Deepness” (Andreas Tölle)
