CONNAISSEUR CLASSICS [cns011-6] Ripperton - Narrow Minded EP

by Connaisseur Recordings

Outstanding release by @ripperton, originally released in December 2006. Farra was also released on his amazing album Niwa in 2010.

Original press-text:
Ripperton from Lausanne in the French part of Switzerland drops his second release on Connaisseur. 2006 was an impressive year for him. He played in the biggest clubs and venues as Ripperton and together with Mirko Loko as Lazy Fat People. He released amazing records on famous labels like Planet E, Wagon Repair. For our last release on Connaisseur in 2006, he saved two outstanding tunes, full of personal emotions and timeless creativity.

“Tainted Words” is a killer club hymn combining two mesmerizing parts. The first part starts surprisingly minimal, straight and captivates with almost jazzy melodies. Part two starts with a sudden break: A weird melody crawls up and when the beat comes back, a massive bassline starts to rumble and turns the track into an acid-drenched sawtooth monster.

“Tainted Words (Plasmik Rmx)” is deeper than the Mariana Trench. Plasmik, our new boy wonders from Berlin, grab the outstanding original, vivisect it and recompose it into a deep underwater journey somehow classic but very up to date though. A must for lovers of deep detroitish cuts.

“Farra” is far more than a track. Ripperton specially dedicated this one to his family and his closest circle of friends. A very personal and pleasant soundtrip, more a song than a track – a short emotional story teller.
