Powerplant

Fraxinus emerges from temporary suspension with a monolithic 6-track offering on his new self-release label Power Plant. This is his debut EP <i>Position (Displacement)</i>, carved from a solid block of Devonian granite. After a 4-year dormancy, the Amsterdam-based artist returns with a 30 minute transmission of earth-shaking kick drums, thunderous percussion and razor-sharp sound design. The label’s inaugural release simultaneously marks the first proper outing for the artist, following a run of compilation features &amp; special edition vinyl excursions dating back to 2014. <i>Position (Displacement)</i> is a journey of divergent moods &amp; cadences, from the wistful flutes of opener Overland to final track Laced’s uncompromising arpeggios. Billowing melodies &amp; piercing stabs run in tandem with a pummeling &amp; steppy rhythm section; Source Code builds steadily, paving the way for Pass One’s warehouse-ready assault. The blooming, fluorescent synths of 115 (Kondo) - named for the mythical Amsterdam club - create a mid-way moment of euphoria, before Larch marches on with its clattering drums. The tracks clearly contain DNA from Fraxinus' foundations with the Her Records cohort – lean, direct &amp; forward-thinking. This time around the aesthetic is more focused, transferred to techno schematics but veering away from 4/4 fare. The sonics have been compacted into dense slabs of energy, primed for soundsystem dispatch.
