UKR is proud to welcome the extremely talented and well-respected funky techno duo from Holland, Black Girl / White Girl, to the imprint as they and UKR go from strength to strength as we approach 2021. Hot on the heels of their guest mixes and interviews for acclaimed British electronic dance publications Mixmag and DJ Mag, this powerhouse team Karin & Ty, aka Black Girl / White Girl, deliver two jacktastic warehouse weapons titled 'Nightfall On Saturn' & 'Fool's Paradise'.
As this duo is making big waves across the globe, it was clear that the big guns needed to be called in for remix duties, therefore, MASC aka Mark Archer (Altern 8) & Shadow Child (UK), Hiroko Yamamura (Chicago, USA) and Noncompliant (Indianapolis, USA) were contacted as the project came to fruition. Each of these remixers is undoubtedly a perfectionist in their trade, and each re-worked the original tracks with creative vision and forward-thinking attention to detail that puts the quality of this release up there with the very best of the best within the 'true techno' genre to-date.
The two original tracks from BGWG are pure magic with their raw energy, tough attitude, catchy layering, and unstoppable vibes. 'Nightfall On Saturn' draws the listener in with its tribal tom groove, jacking rhythms, twisted vocal manipulations, and intricate effects, while 'Fool's Paradise' funks things up with its warped out scratching synth line, SL2 synth stabs, vocal snippets, cutting edge effects and clean bongo percussive action. These two are on fire as they lay down some true funky techno action that's absolutely first class all the way.
If you're into the originals then you're in for a real treat when you dive into these remixes. From the clever as ever mind-melting re-work of 'Nightfall On Saturn' by the always relentless perfectionist, Noncompliant, that pitch-shifts, and warps things into another dimension of raw jacking warehouse goodness, to the unreal bass line, catchy percussive rhythms, next level mimicking synth layering and mind-trickery of the world-renowned duo, Mark Archer & Shadow Child aka MASC's treatment of 'Fool's Paradise', to the super hot acid remix of 'Fool's Paradise' from Chicago's extremely talented and intriguing, Hiroko Yamamura, a true techno gem of the Windy City...this Paradise On Saturn EP from Black Girl / White Girl is a release that is sure to stand the test of time. Pure quality, underground techno at its best brought to you by UKR. Get sorted, keep it techno, and keep it underground
