(en) the russian duo is foundsound's newborn pride and joy. after a staggering debut net release on unfoundsound, easy changes deliver their vinyl debut -- a three-tracker doused with hypnotic surprises, quirky rhythms, psychedelic sound-play and gritty found sounds - yielding a fresh and ultramodern side of minimal dance music - structured to greatly satisfy both the cutting-edge dj as well as the stoner techno nerd listening at home. sil and denis guttersnipe are currently based in moscow, and they began producing minimal techno as easy changes in 2005. sil previously released a few solo tracks on compilation cds, and denis guttersnipe (originally from siberia) also released under the name cast, including an idm cd album on peace technologies and a couple eps alongside chizh (from moscow) on sender records and ringelbeatz. foundsound is honored to present the magic tunes ep by easy changes, where each track moves with subtle yet captivating changes throughout (hence the name, "easy changes") - and each track fueled graciously with cleverly manipulated reverbs, delays, field recordings, snappy rhythms and bouncy basslines. indeed, the music of easy changes is compelling and gripping. on a1 - "magic tunes" - you get a mind-numbing long-play doused with shuffly stripped-down percussion, warm static, a detuned sine wave that'll make your body float all over the dance floor, and a mesmerizing breakdown that'll make you go "ahhhhhh". for many months already, "magic tunes" has been a hit for the foundsound crew as they have been dropping this tune at peak moments in their dj sets all over the world. on b1 - "hungry wood" - you have a slow-builder with a driving beat, quirky minimal rhythms, lighthearted sine tones, enthralling reverbs and squeaky found sounds - drawing a fine line somewhere between tripped-out deepness and a killer for the dance floor. on b2 - "eggplant 04" - you get another deep floor-burner a bit more on the experimental side - fueled by swarming field recordings, riveting reverbs, a plunging bassline and minimal melodies that gradually build until a moment of peaked-out bliss. go go go easy changes! embrace our new baby! coming next on foundsound is found-16...once again by easy changes!
