February saw the drop of Schenk’s latest release, a 4 track EP entitled “OK” featuring his very tasty original, and three remixes to accompany the release. The original mix of Ok! is a fine example of what you can expect from a Schenk track, stripped back jackin’ funk with crisp clean mixing and production. Like all music, house can fall into so many different sub genres and one thing we look for in our signings (Bone Idle Records) is something a little different. You won’t find a saw or wobble bass here, but what you will find is a floor shaking sub and kick which keeps the track ebbing and flowing throughout. Expect funky fidgety synth/guitar/vocal stabs and breakdowns with a very creative alternative to a white noise build. Don’t sleep on the remixes either, Carbon Parlour, Bassion & Shyne, and 6T9 all put their respective twists on the track, rounding out the release with a bit of electro and some alternative housed up interpretations.

And you can pick up some free downloads accompanying the release from Riggers and Dala (visit the Soundcloud for a download):

And up next, we have a totally free EP with three tasty tracks for your listening pleasure. Schenk truly exhibits his maturing style here, giving us that signature pop in his work, while not overpowering these smooth tech-house grooves. He walks the line between softened synths and the choppiness of Chicago house to deliver a toned down jacking sound. I feel like some of these tracks are just what I need in my earlier/opening sets — tech with some bark, no bite!

Schenk – Body Language
Schenk – Fire
Schenk – Slip

Big Room French style Electro hardcore! It’s as if a baseline and an electric guitar had a threesome with a chainsaw! Stellar chopped up noises and brilliant effects thrown in to soften the edge and featuring the mighty Haezer on vocals. To accent the madness is The Mastertrons remix which smashes an thrashed electro medley with big kicks while The Deficient busts out Dutch House on acid. Finishing up this package with an exclamation mark is LaTourette who punches out thick French Electro with Rave Warehouse Attitude!

Digging this mix too. Dare I say enjoyed all that distorted bass and electro trash? I think I did. Thank you, Mechanical Resistance, for revitalizing some of my slightly dormant EDM roots.

I will keep this short; I am new here and learning how to run this.

Yes, there is a period in between the two words, placed there primarily for irony. I am a grammar pirate, always sticking to a loose code of right and wrong, making sh*t up wherever I see fit. My interests are the noises that thunder after dark.

I just wanted to say hello. We are going to be the best of friends.
