vladislav delay‘s ep »espoo« features two new conceptual, rhythm-intense tracks. whereas the groove of the opener »olari« derives from a sound loop which is manipulated by filters and echoes and finally brings forth the intensifying beat, the reverse is done with »kolari« on the b-side. starting from an impulsive, staccato beat, a sound carpet is woven by means of modifiers which gradually shape a permanent vacation-like melody, close to terry riley‘s minimalistic concepts. both tracks share a linear increase in density, and because of their break with the common four-four time, they create a certain folkloric atmosphere. like with »vantaa« (r-n136), the experienced music producer vladislav delay continues his search for dance-floor compatible, yet unique and fresh music.
