DOT ALLISON - Cry (Emotiquon 'Arches' Mix)  by  Microrave Records

The synth-crazed duo EMOTIQUON met whilst training as double-decker bus drivers in Glasgow, learning only of each other's electronic music interests whilst passing under a low bridge at a terrifyingly high speed. Influences come from a love of 80's synthpop, 90s hardcore and warped electronica. With a dash of rock & dub thrown in!

SHITDISCO - Reactor Party (Emotiquon Remix 2009)  by  microraverecords

Finally making this old remix sound the best it's ever sounded, and making it easily available to download! This track first surfaced back in 2007. Although it sounded a little rough around the edges, it got some cult plays and enthusiastic mentions/reviews on sites like The Hype Machine and Buffetlibre...

Check it out!!! It's been a wee while since I've worked on any Emotiquon remixes, and I think that this one is a pretty good spaceship for us all to climb aboard, fo' sho!!!

Hope you enjoy it, spacecadets!

MAJOR LAZER - Pon De Floor (Voltergeist Version) Suitably spooky and psychedelic dub-flavoured Tech House version. Definitely not for playing quietly or stroking your chin thoughtfully. Unfortunately this is a remix contest entry which requires votes to succeed, so if you like it then give it a click! Appreciated! ;)

Part One of August's Emotiquon Special... Tokyo Bass Exchange EP about to be re-released as a Beatport exclusive as preparation for the debut (and possible ONLY) Emotiquon album reaches conclusion...

Written by Kenny Breaks, host of RSI Radio:

"Guys!

Got an absolute stormer of a show lined up this week, well if you're into fresh underground techno that is!


On the warm up we've got Voltergeist. A fellow Ayrshire lad who's been making electronic music for 15 years and now runs his own label, Microrave Records. He managed to get some attention with a track featured on Future Music magazine back in July 1998, alongside Autechre, Dave Angel, Kevin Saunderson and Funk D’ Void. He developed his live performance skills by playing at numerous Student Unions and clubs around Glasgow and Edinburgh. In 2003 he met Emotiquon co-writer James Rehill and together they went on to remix artists such as Heaven 17, Enter Shikari & Shitdisco.

The music of Voltergeist is inspired by his love of deep house, abstract electronica, minimal techno, and heavy “blissed-out” dub music. Living in the heart of the Ayrshire countryside is also a major inspiration, surrounded by beautiful woodland waterfalls, rolling hills, and dramatic sunsets on the West Coast over the Isle of Arran. Sound good? You'd better believe it!

Mixed, produced and recorded by Voltergeist on 17th June 2009

When I was arranging Smear's mix for the radio a while back he mentioned to me that he knew Marcel Heese and he'd be keen to do an exclusive for us too. Now, I know RSI is really all about local DJ mixes but I felt I couldn't pass up the opportunity and I have to say, the mix is pretty phenomenal.

Marcel Heese is a resident DJ at the now legendary German club, Tresor. He's an avid fan of Detroit, Chicago, Dub Techno, Ambient, Noise, Industrial, Breakcore and Dubstep to name a few and his current sets are an amalgamation of all those genres but in spite of such diversity he manages to keep them smooth and congruent.

In April 2008 Marcel became part of the prestigious Tresor Headquarters team, besides playing in Germany he has also visited a few foreign clubs in Poland and Slovenia.

His current favourite labels and artists are: Downwards, Counterbalance, Axis, Warp, Tresor, Sähkö, Token, Transmat, FXHE, Basic Channel/Maurizio, Mojuba, Tectonic, Redshape, Bitstream, Robert Hood, Planetary Assault Systems, Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being, Drexciya, Counterpart, Deepchord, Lerosa, Theo Parrish, Sleeparchive, Ostgut Ton, Sandwell District, Ancient Methods, 2562, Martyn, Vidab. Influences of all those can be heard in Marcel’s exclusive mix for Leith FM, he's chilled out a bit recently, decreased his BPM, adding to increased power in the groove.

HEAR THE SHOW ON THE MICRORAVE RECORDS JULY PODCAST:

Dearest Friends,

After nearly a whole year of hard
graft, near misses, awkward moments, close calls, penny saving, making
new contacts and a very steep learning curve... I'm pleased to announce
that the new Grand National single "Cut By The Brakes: REMIXED" is out
TODAY on my label Microrave Records, available EXCLUSIVELY at
Beatport.com!!!

Here's the press release:

"Making the
kind of pop music that any discerning music lover would be happy to see
dominate the charts this spring, there are numerous influences that go
into a Grand National record. From indie to electro to post-punk-pop,
the duo's ability to twin solid songwriting sensibilities with tight
electronic productions has resulted in debut LP 'Kicking The National
Habit' being heralded a national treasure.

Made up of Rupert
Lyddon and Lawrence 'La' Rudd, the Grand National sound is that of a
fully-fledged band, a singer / song-writer / multi-instrumentalist
combination that belies the fact that they are a duo. Influenced by the
likes of new wave '80s bands such as New Order and Joy Division, Grand
National display a 21st century styling that places them squarely in
London's eclectic and varied music scene, with a sound that is as
cutting edge as it is retro.

'Cut By The Brakes' takes the GN
sound to a darker, more electro-fried place. It's this darkness which
prompted the various artists to remix the track and further amplify the
"club appeal" of an already danceable track.

Modifier execute a
twisted electro-fueled breaks mix, showcasing their phenomenal ability
to melt melancholic melodies and atmospherics together whilst driving
it home with punchy drum programming and structure. The talented
production duo are at the top of their game, and look forward to
releasing more music on Microrave Records imminently.

Gung Ho!
and Ministry Of Sound favourites The Japanese Popstars add their
trademark "hands-in-the-air" club vibe to the track, with a rolling
progressive synth line and driving kick which is guaranteed to get any
dance floor heaving under the weight of festival revelers this summer.

Emotiquon
increase the psychedelia with further kaleidoscopic sonic developments,
building on IDM ideas which evolve from breaks, techno and psy-trance.
Giving space to Rupert & La's original parts whilst layering so
many additional sounds on top is an ambitious approach which has worked
incredibly well.

And finally, Voltergeist. After a well received
debut mini-album in December on Microrave, fusing dark dub vibes with
minimal/tech-house rhythms is the style of choice for this man! A deep,
brooding floor shaker reminiscent of early Warp Records releases for
late night clubs and intelligent DJs, this is a great track to round
off the release."

Dearest MySpace Friends,

We thought it'd be a good idea to clear the air and to let everybody know what's happening with EMOTIQUON at the moment...

After setting up Microrave Records, Shaun Dimensional has decided to put all of his efforts into running the label and his solo project Voltergeist for the time being. With some seriously positive feedback from major DJs and radio stations such as Dubfire (Deep Dish), Nick Warren (Way Out West), Deadbeat, Ministry Of Sound Radio & BBC Radio One along with full support from other radio stations and DJs around the world, it seems like this is the right direction to take.

However, there will be some sneaky Emotiquon releases in 2009 (most notably the remix of Grand National's "Cut By The Brakes") and some live appearances too.

James Mechanoid has also hinted that he'll be concentrating on developing his solo productions during the first half of 2009.

Both producers are confident that the time spent concentrating on their individual skills will lead to a much clearer and well defined sound for Emotiquon in the not too distant future, and are looking forward to writing some exciting new material and live shows together.

Lots of Love,
