hey, guess what? we are one year old! after this relatively long time of online presence, pozitron records proudly presents it’s birthsday release: foreign artists visit foreign places lp.

have you ever thought about the actual geographical location of websites you visit daily? do you ever think about whether some place you see on the internet is real, or is just digitally constructed? do you actually see/visit something when you only see an image of it? these and such other questions interested us when we were planning this release, so in the world of mutual paranoia, total surveillance and global tracking, we thought of expanding the concept of travelling.

our producers were given a carefully chosen image of planet earth, and they had to travel there virtually, by using the map service of google. their task was to examine that location based on that image which appeared on their screen and write music about what they saw there, in their own, individual interpretation. for your comparison, we added some oddly descriptive subtitles, and even further on, if you click on them, you can visit the place too! get there fast as you can, it only depends on your internet connection.. but be careful, this is a see and hear only experience. everybody comes up with private interpretations. result may vary.

Hola!, este ep es uno de esos ep’s que me tiene indeciso hasta el último momento, si bien tiene algunos tracks buenos.. parece que a otros les falta un poco de chispa en el sonido.

En conjunto, me han gustado más los remixes, por ejemplo la revisión del “5 am” de “B Mus”, que casi ni parece el mismo track, con ese aire espacial que le ha dado o el “closing mix” del “closer” por lo estrambótico que resulta.

Vaya vaya, que bien suena esto, con un primer tema precioso apostando por la melodía por encima de otras cosas, eso que tan en falta se echa últimamente en estos tiempos en los que parece que se está perdiendo “la emoción” en la música de baile, temas que transmitan algo además de hacerte bailar. Después ya pasando al minimal techno, “musa” y “tritone” también muy buenos. Me ha sorprendido esta rel, me esperaba más de lo mismo pero para nada, hay calidad.

i-rob, bio:
I-Rob Audio crew is an Italian music project composed by Roberto Clementi, producer, remixer and live performer and Roby Dj, dj and art director.

They meet in 2005 and immediately decided to start this new adventure. The prerogative is to create something different from the usual musical standard, they are looking for new sound and innovative dance music.

Luca Bacchetti from Tenax Recordings was immediately impressed by their style and decided to remix one of their works called ôBreezeö which has been much appreciated in the underground scene.

They don’t like the definitions, their music is only house! They play live using decks and computer.
