Mr. Mau (Dries) — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:03:48 +0000

Orbis Records wishes you all the best in 2012. We’re a bit late but who cares.
We hope Mister Grovskopa has a good future in 2012, he quits music for now. So… comment on his FB page & show him some love & credit. He deserves it for his several years devoted to Techno Music.

Nevertheless, we’re not quiting yet.

What can you expect in 2012?

A various release with Alpha 303 and a remix of Aubrey!!
A full EP of Fran Hartnett!!!
A full EP of Mr. Mau himself
…

If we have some months left, we’ll do another 12″. Note: all releases will be available on 12″ and digital.
If you missed Orbis005 (Decks is out of stock) and Orbis006, go get it. They’ll be soon out of stock.

Cheers!

David Nizet has been around in the Belgian underground techno scene for ages, we mean early nineties. He was part of the 6th Sense collective during the mid 90s with releases on Dave Angels Rotation and the legendary Belgian label Re-load Records. Despite a Detroitish nostalgic touch in his productions, small modern minimalist influences gently creep in to all his tracks to turn them into brilliant pieces of never outdated, or should we say evergreen, techno.
With past releases on Aesthetik, Mowar, Labrynth and played by Marcel Fengler, Markus Suckut, Matt O’Brien, Jamie Behan, … (the list is too long actually), he’s definitely up there with the big ones.

“Grey Lines” is a brilliant dark nerve-racking track with groove that will definitely set the dancefloor on fire. Beware, this killer will change dancing people at 6 am into a bunch of zombies.

“No Limiter” translates Davids feeling for music. There are no limits. This tracks grabs you from the beginning till the end with its minimalistic changes in the arrangement and an extraordinary synth you’ve never heard before.

Mr. Mau’s remix of “No Limiter” shifts the track up another gear and aims straight for the dancefloor. its aggressive but sophisticated and original arrangement makes you scream “dance while you still can”.

Feedback :

Grovskopa (Emergence, Pohjola – SWE)
Feeling ‘Grey Lines’, almost has a G-Man groove going on.Looking forward to the vinyl.

Jeroen Search (A&S Records)
yeah, again a nice one! looking forward to the vinyl!!

Kazuumi Ishii (Electronic Directory – JP)
I’m feeling Grey Lines, solid stuff.

Coefficient (Labrynth, M_REC Ltd, Duality – UK)
Nice EP. No Limiter original is cool. The Filth mix will fit nicely into my sets. Good release!!

Phone (Subsist Records – SP)
Ozka at Orbis? Sound nice! I’ll play it for sure.

Marc Trakker (Orbis records, Napalm Enema records – FR)
Another awesome new release. All tracks sound really unique. Looking forward to the vinyl.

Kr!z (Token Rec – BE)
Mau’s rmx is my fav. Other tracks are cool but the remix works best for my mixes.

Franco Cangelli (Mowar, Self Defence – BE)
i like the grit of Grey Lines and the mechanical soul of No Limiter. Mau’s slightly more muscled remix is solid as well. No fav, i like all three

Evad Streaklov (Nightcode magazine – BE)
The Remix by Mr. Mau is my fav. Love the original as well. Ozka keeps it like it should be: 120 bpm kicks that groove!

It looks like were are becoming a Dutch centered label. Remixes by Jeroen Search from The Netherlands and a new Belgian Producer signs on Orbis Records. We couldn’t be more proud!

Nico G., born in 1980, is a known producer in the Belgian Underground scene. His style? well… just Nico! His love for acid, electro & ambient music and passion for hardware results in stunning dark tracks that gives us goosebumps. Give the man a 808, a TB303 and a Juno and he’ll deliver you a rough and warm track with his typical style of arrangement & sound. Amazing!

Jeroen needs no introduction. He did his part again & delivered 2 stunning remixes!If you like acid with a twist of hypnotic synths in a brilliant arrangement, you have to get this release!

Feedback

Josh Wink (Ovum rec – USA)
Very plastikman… But, I like that. Been playing daydreamer out.

Jamie Behan (Subject Detroit, Bastardo Electrico Recordings – IRL)
Cheers for this guys! Absolutely loving everything about this release. Nico original tracks are so refreshing. Unashamedly old-school, dont give a fuck techno. Both Jeroen’s remixes are killers as well. Hard to decide what to play off this but I think certainly Jeroen’s first remix and the ‘Pump It’ original. Full support. 5/5

Exium (Nheoma, Pole, Warm Up, Tsunami, Planet Rhythm – SP)
I like Hypnose (You are mix) best.

Grovskopa (Emergence, Pohjola – SWE)
Thanks for this, got to say I was very skeptic at first, I have never been a fan of the 303.After one listening I was blown away though, it’s like Richie dug up some unreleased Plastikman tapes from 93 and revamped them.My picks are ‘Kontrol’ and ‘Daydreamer’, but ‘You Are Mix’ is the one for the sets. Support as always.

Maxi Cuenca (Soleil rec – AR)
I like how orbis keep its attitude. I found this release very intresting, and rich. Loved the sound of it all, is one of those records you let them play from beggining to end. My favourites ones are the 3 mixes of: Alpha303 – “Hypnose” they rock!.

Kazuumi Ishii (Electronic Directory – JP)
Really nice release all around. I’m liking all of them – highlights for me are: Hypnose (Deep Sleep mix) and Kontrol. Solid dancefloor goodness.

Ed Davenport (Figure – Falkplatz – Berghain/Panorama Bar – GER)
Thats a fantastic release all round! Heavy remixes man! and the originals are really cool too! thanks a lot!

Markus Suckut (Stroboscopic Artefacts – GER)
What a lovely remix by Jeroen! & also Pump It is a BOMB. Full support!

Joton (Newrhythmic recs – SP)
Nice ep. I love acid and anologic music.

Eric Cloutier (The bunker, Den of thieves, Down – USA)
Wow. This is some major shit here!! really enjoying the whole thing, and REALLY enjoying the “you are” remix of “hypnose.” awesome rob hood styled jam here…bringing me right back to detroit and where i started with this whole techno thing.

Coefficient / Telesthesia (Labrynth rec – UK)
Very good EP. Originals are nice and deep with well thought out arrangements. The Jeroen Search remixes I will be playing. Full support.

Ben Woollard (Detatched Resident, TrusT Recordings – UK)
Nostalgic Futurism. Daydream, Hypnose + both remixes working it for me.

Fran Hartnett (Mantrap, Subsist, Stasis – UK)
Alpha303 Alphawaves is a beautifully fresh take on the classic acidsound. A fine balance between icy acid emotion and powerful warehouse stomp. A1! =)

Marc Trakker (Orbis records, Napalm Enema records – FR)
Daydreamer and Hypnose (you are mix) are my favorite ! Deep and killer acid tracks, good work !!

Kr!z (Token Rec – BE)
Sounds good. Jeroen rocks as always! Will play both remixes.

Franco Cangelli (Mowar, Self Defence – BE)
Very nice package, but the winner here is Daydreamer. Beautifully tripping acid à la Plastikman, if only this could be released on vinyl.

Edward Molton (Coincidence Records – BE)
Cool release. Jeroen on his best!

Tomaz (ex Switch Studio Brussel Belgian National Radio, ex Intec – BE)
Sounding like Plastikman meets Robert Hood. Great originals and excellent remixes.

Evad Streaklov (Nightcode magazine – BE)
Hypnose and Kontrol are very very very good! High Plastikman-isch. Pump it takes you on the roll.
