The Boundary Monument label honcho share their Adept Aeronautics EP including some of their favourite tonal sounds: “the Korg M1 “Organ 1″ preset, and papa 303”.
Recorded during the height of the pandemic, the atmosphere of the EP provides a properly combustible juxtaposition of club theology, ailing from Olin’s obsession with dance music.
“Adept Aeronautics”, the main track of the EP, is a reminder that even the simplest of things can be incredibly effective. An all-around 90’s tech-house inspired bassline leads the way, interpreting these classic sounds in a fresh, contemporary manner, solidly built for the dance floor while exploring the in-betweens of house music.
The second track, “Odd Materials”, may be interpreted as a homage to the golden age of the Acid House and its Manchester church Hacienda. Olin take us on a journey with the iconic Roland TB 303 and reminds us of its sonic power. Kansan by birth, Chicagoan by honour, Berliner by chance.
Olin has devoted most of their working life to the transformative power of The Rave. With several releases on labels such as Argot, Discovery, Nervous, Night Owl Diner, Detour, and a forthcoming release on Sound of Berlin, Olin has cast a wide net with their productions, which range from deep techno to italo disco.
Their label, Boundary Monument, aims to capture the various intersections of their sundry taste. Their DJ sets offer the same peculiar pulse and are often expansive uninhibited affairs. Adept Aeronautics EP was released on the 27th of May via Sound of Berlin.
