TRACKLIST 1. This Go This Way by Alexander Skancke 2. Wind Sync by Alexander Skancke / Foehn & Jerome 3. Public Trouble by Alexander Skancke INFO ALEXANDER SKANCKEÙs exciting debut ep for SLICES OF LIFE, including a collaboration track with FOEHN & JEROME. Alexander Skancke is a Berlin-based DJ, producer and rising talent within EuropeÙs underground house scene. The young Norwegian has made a sizeable impact on the electronic music scene, dating from way back to his early releases on Neostrictly, to the internationally respected releases on his own label Quirk. Entrenched in his love for vinyl and analog productions, Skancke is imbued with a passion for the very roots of house music, but has also kept his ears open far beyond the boundaries of electronic music. Skancke™s excitement for analogue is reflected in all aspects of his life: from his work at Bikini Waxx (a record shop in Berlin specializing in second-hand vinyl), to his fascination with vintage studio gear, all culminating in his music having a wonderfully raw and organic feeling. The 3 tracks that make up his šPublic Trouble› ep showcase Alexander SkanckeÙs knowledge of the history of dance music without copying the originals, but instead creating his own unique signature: The A side - šThis Go This Way› sends you on a crazy acid dream, driven by a hypnotic unstoppable beat with Alexander SkanckeÙs voice appearing out of the ether, before vanishing away. For the B1 track šWind Sync› Alex teamed up with his label mates and renowned DJ- and Producer-Duo Foehn & Jerome at their studio in Berlin. Together they've masterfully crafted a light footed minimal house track with a slightly melancholic touch. The EPÙs title track šPublic Trouble› truly shows off Alexander SkanckeÙs love for deep minimal funk: An ultra groovy piece of music based around tight beats and warm basslines, topped off with a funky stripped back synth line.
