Legendary Dutch producer Remy Unger returns to the label for his first solo EP - Longlist.
A pioneer of the tougher European sound since stepping onto the dancefloor of the Roxy in Amsterdam way back in 1989, Remy Unger has been one of the unsung heroes of Dutch electronic music. Signed to every major label worth a damn, his collaborations with Sven van Hees and Roland Klinkenberg in the '90s soundtracked our own epiphanies, and hits such as 'Backstabber', Serious Damage' and 'Mano' showcase his unique take and incredible creative energy.
That energy, even 30+ years later hasn't waned such that opening the release with the title track 'Longlist', flaunting a deeper vibe that captivates from the first note. As simple as it is hypnotic, Unger's passion is clear to see.
Next up is 'Damage Done' and this has all the impact and fire that his greatest hits all share in common. Rumbling sonics and stabs lead the way as insistent hats and percussive tones give drive and direction changing throughout; telling a story without the need of words.
Rounding off the release 'Reset The Past' is a thoroughly modern track with old school charm. Warm analogue bass acts as a thick rug besides the roaring fireplace of polyrhythmic stabs that fill your ears with hope.
