Seit 1996 gibt es die Darmstädter Phishmaol-Crew. In Sachen Drum’n'Bass dürfen die DJs Malice, Spawn und Budoka also getrost als alte Hasen und fester Bestandteil der Rhein-Main-Szene bezeichnet werden. Mit zahlreichen Gigs und eigenen Veranstaltungen, darunter die Eventreihen Update (603qm) und Audiophilez (Room 106), konnte die Phishmaol-Crew ihr Können an den Decks unter Beweis stellen und die Region immer wieder mit interessanten und hochkarätigen Gästen der DnB-Szene bereichern. Ende Mai präsentiert die Phishmaol-Crew eine neue Folge der Audiophilez-Reihe auf 603qm wird den Floor mit frischen Beats und tiefen Bässen beschallen. Neben aktuellen Tunes und eigenen Releases werden auch viele brandneue, bisher unveröffentlichte Produktionen zu hören sein. Auch das eigene Label Tilt-Recordings, das in Kooperation mit den Mannheimern DJ Hektik und Bad Boy Kaiza gegründet wurde, konnte in den letzten 6 Jahren mit positiven Reviews in der nationalen und internationalen Szene-Presse auf sich aufmerksam machen.

For the second part of his “Echoes” EP project, Budoka has again put together two different tunes:
“Eye Sea Blue” is a lovely, technoid summer roller with a beautiful hookline and other melodic guitar parts all played by the musician Budoka himself. The tune is set in a warm summer night at the ocean and brings precisely this athmosphere into the clubs together with a proper rumbling bassline.
“Desolation” is a serious, modern Neurofunk bomb on a high quality level that combines the latest minimalist tech-nology with Budoka’s own style and brings a seldomly heard musical element into the soundscape: subtle, spacey “donks” (formerly known as stabs) appearing in a triplet arrangement, remotely similar to the bassline notes in “Echoes.” It goes without saying that the tune fulfills the sound admission requirements for the international top league with ease. Its precise, juicy beat, angry but carefully restrained and condensed midranges and its massive, although hardly accented bassline as an entity do indeed “rinse it out of proper!”

Budoka, much underrated and overlooked German producer, co-founded the label Tilt-Recordings seven years ago primarily as an outlet for his Drum & Bass productions. Ever since, he has released annual tokens of his constant production improvement on the label’s vinyl series. The material he worked on since the release of TILT010 in 2009 is now ripe and ready to be put out into the world. So, today, he is starting the 2010 season of the label’s digital only series T-Files by delivering a digital EP (it is actually his T-Files solo debut because his only tune on there so far was a collaboration with DJ Malice).
Both tunes are techy bits in Budoka’s trademark handwriting, highlighting different aspects of his musical mind:
“Echoes” comes in with a dark, mysterious and very catchy theme which instantly draws all listeners’ attention and makes the tune a definite sure shot in combination with its evil, throbbing bassline and deep space soundscape. The tune turns out a heavy roller and proves that Budoka can do more than just generic Neurofunk midrange-tools: he makes deep music for the dancefloor in his own style.
“Tubular” has more of a classically paranoid techy feel, an almost oldschool-ish atmosphere despite the modern, sophisticated sound techniques beneath the musical surface. It plays a lot with midrange/bassline combinations, empty space and ancient wooden stabs more common to the historical 1990s period than recent Drum & Bass trends. Tubular is one of the tunes that openly show just how much the early sound of Ed Rush & Optical on Virus has been a key influence and great inspiration to Budoka; like “The Happening” on TILT005 it brings that certain feeling into a strong tune with today’s sound standard.

Malibu is Budoka together with DJ Malice. “Chasm” was originally produced in 2006, got a proper workover in 2008 and now it finally comes out via T-Files in 2009. It is one of many unreleased tunes by Budoka still waiting to be unearthed…
