Sven Weisemann is set to release his ‘Bilateral Relations’ EP via Copenhagen’s Echocord this September, comprising four originals from the German producer. Sven Weisemann has been immersed in the underground House and Techno scene for quite some time now having started DJing in 1997 during the rise of the scene on his home turf of Berlin and going on to release material via the likes of Amsterdam’s Delsin, Mojuba, Telrae and liebe.detail amongst many more. Here though we see Sven joining the roster of Echocord, a perfect fit for his more dubbed out compositions with artists like Fluxion, Rod Modell and STL on the roster. ‘Lunation’ opens the release and sees Weisemann fuse emotive string melodies and cavernous vocal echoes with off- kilter rhythms and rounded sub hits before title-track ‘Bilateral Relations’ embraces a more direct four-four approach via sparse percussion and tumbling toms alongside choppy bass stabs and ever-unfolding, echoing dub chords. Opening the flip is ‘Monistic’, an airy ethereal number employing billowing pads, bright synth chimes and a dropped tempo dubbed out feel to create something truly stunning and thought provoking before the ‘Decimation (Valvle tR9 Mix) closes things on a darker tip with looming stab swells, heavily swung drums and sporadic growling bass drones.

Sven Weisemann returns to Telrae after his very successful Elapse/ Light Sway with another stunning Performance, showing he is a master of creating interactions of sounds perfectly embedded in space and time. >Elusion< is like a sleeping day that awakes slowly, by the hour, in small steps it pulls itself up but then.. folds up as if there had never been the promise of a new day. >Freund Der Familie< are hailed in Berlin as one of the upcoming top talents and let us say this... they deserve the praise. Their remix is an overgrowing wave of sounds that incorporates nice distortion and grows on you till you cannot do without it. This is a perfect flip side to Sven Weisemanns original, playing the game in a different way.

We think we do not have to introduce Sven Weisemann, but for all of you who are not familiar with his work... Sven has released on top labels such as Delsin, Smallfish, Echocord, Liebe Detail and maybe the label he is mostly associated with is Mojuba records, which is based in Berlin. His release for Telrae starts with Elapse a track so detached from everything and at the same time so earthly, it gains that mystic touch some trax radiate. It is again a timeless track on Telrae what we think is a quality we strive for. Light Sway seems harder at first but turns out to be more melodic and light than Elapse and so the title fits it just right!
