Orbisnation Podcast #12 - Pledge by Orbis

Deconstructing tracks tends to give ideas and inspiration about arrangements, sound colour & quality, mixing & blending, etc.

What notice? What to look out for? What stands out? ...

In this first Orbis Deconstruct, a mention to the artist Waveguide with his "Quod" track on the Quod EP, hosted on the marvelous German label A.r.t.less.

Artist: https://www.discogs.com/artist/6865897-Waveguide

EP: https://www.discogs.com/Waveguide-Quod-EP/master/1468791

Label: https://www.discogs.com/label/74079-artless

None of the tracks have been altered by EQ, Mastering or any other technique.

Audio is recorded straight of the 1210 Technics turntable with a Rodec BX-7 mixer.

Honest, critical & constructive is highly appreciated.

Doug Cooney has cultivated his knowledge of techno over many years. Doug's passion for this craft runs deep and his DJ sets span the full spectrum of Techno, past and present. His style and attention to detail have earned him warm up sets for many of his Techno heroes, with Dave Clarke, UVB and Abstract Division being recent highlights. As well as being a Mutate resident, he also plays regular headline slots in Dublin’s biggest venues & has played several gigs abroad taking a trip to Berlin’s Arena club last year featuring on the same line up as Adam X & the Dystopian Record labels Jon Hester.

Doug is also the driving force behind Real//Sound Ireland an independent music school for aspiring producers and DJs in Dublin. Real//Sound provides workshops and showcases for those hoping to learn the craft of electronic music, within the laid back and straightforward environment Doug insists on with all he does.

Doug brings a similarly tireless ethos to his own productions, which blend classic analogue synthesis with contemporary digital sound design. His production has received support from Berghain Resident Answer Code Request & Ben Sims who has played several of Doug's tracks featuring them on his monthly ‘Run It Red’ mix Series. As well as producing records under his own name on labels Bastardo Eléctrico, research and RLSD Records, Doug is also part of the duo RSCH14, who released on Vision Collector records. More recently, Doug’s composition skills have been turned to scoring, and he was delighted to be commissioned by VICE and Vodafone to produce four tracks for "Don't Forget To Go Home”, a documentary which explored Berlin’s techno scene.

So… very pleased to welcome Doug to the Orbis Records.

If you’re looking for a good four tracker to keep in your bag for a very long time, allow it to be this one. Consistent throughout the EP. Great synthesis with a classic touch with an excellent balanced digital sound design. If you’re not planning on playing this on a big ass sound system just once,… just don’t!

“Alternative” offers none.

As simply as that. Slick. Classic synthesis.

Gently and balanced, yet interestingly very funky in its own way.

Perfect filler and A-track to set the tone for this EP.

“Internal Drive“ is a kicker. Excellent thrive.

Perfect floor filler with a touch of acidic bass lines

“Riflekt“ kicks of the B-side.

Imagine an empty black space creeping up to you from behind.

Dark. Groovy. Bleeps and Blips. Gentle throttling movements around you.

Great atmosphere generator to shift any DJ-set to a higher gear and step it up a notch.

“Coming Home” sounds like a track to cruise home from an amazing night. You’d expect soft, gently, sweet minimalistic techno with a touch of melancholia. Guess what. Not for Doug. Sounds more like a good ol’skool closer to have a last stretch of all those zombies on the floor!

Go home. Go hard.

We’re extremely humbled to have Doug Cooney as our guest on our 15th release! A milestone.

Orbis X is a sublabel of Orbis Records and will be mainly focusing on softer yet often usable as DJ material for the broader mass interested in Electronic music. This sublabel is an extension of Orbis Records’ softer, more melodical and experimental side. Music will be ranging from house, dub, chicago over melodic acid and even breaks. Not any track makes it to this sublabel if it can't stand on its own and stand the test of time!

We warmly welcome the Dutch duo Dennis Pors & Stephan de Bruijn to OrbisX. New fresh talent, ready to conquer the world. We feel obliged to support these fine gentlemen to get their music spread across the globe.

Dennis & Stephan know each other through their musical perspectives. They share a similar taste for music, Detroit techno.

Before they worked together, Dennis experimented with deep house through digital synths and learned the ins and outs of programming music in Logic. Stephan was well known with the detroit techno scene. His passion goes out to well balanced electronic music with hypnotizing emotional feeling to it. Add a layer of atmospheric grooves on top of that and you have the perfect blend to potential timeless music.

Soon enough they made the switch to analog gear to be able to create a cleaner and better sound. After three years of hard work, they have reached the sound they were looking for.

And this is it!

Their debut on vinyl.

D&S servers a full EP called Thoughts EP. A great cocktail of dreamy and diverse electronic tunes. This EP fits well in the back of any DJ bag to warm up the place or fix the atmosphere on roof-top bar in NYC.

Smooth cruising, roof down car music or background music on a spring night with a summery breeze … This EP is amazing and works best on a big sounds systems and major festivals!

“Childs play”, what’s in a name.

Nothing like that melody.

Creating a generously opening atmosphere, but actually brilliantly mixed creating the perception of simplicity.

Groovy, acid touches and funky. Can’t keep still when being played. A-track for sure!

“Thoughts“ might have a dark feel to it but evolves in a very uplifting track in just a few moments,

making it very bright and fun to play. Shed light to the place, should have been a great title as well,

but thoughts is the best name for this track. The story in this track is definitely there to be told and listened to.

“Edge Of Insanity“ kicks of the B-side.

Goosebumps, as from the start. Building up slowly to a very melodic and yet simply track, it’s the perfect translation for a sunrise at the beach.

Potential Ibiza hit if you ask us.

“Submission” is a track straight out of a movie.

Clever, nice build up, dreamy, spacey and above all so amazingly subtle.

This is what falling in love should sound like.

We’re humble. We’re amazed. We’re honoured to host D&S.

We hope this duo gets the attention they deserve with this EP.

Full support for Dennis & Stephan.
