Ableton Forum

Sorry for the spam, but I posted my liveset on here once and a few people liked it so I thought I'd post up info for my the first release on the label I've just set up. And all the tracks were created in Ableton, so it's kind of relevant.

Cat no:: OK 001
Artist:: Matt O'Brien
Release:: The Portimão E.P.
Format:: 12" vinyl

A1:: Hidden High
A2:: Loptech
B1:: Invader
B2:: Headpeel

Here's what Smallfish records have to say about our first release::

"I DO LIKE THE DAYS, WHEN PEOPLE COME IN THE SHOP, AND SELF-DISTRIBUTE THEIR FIRST RECORD. NOT ALWAYS ARE THEY THE GREATEST THING ON EARTH, BUT SOMETIMES, THEY ARE REALLY HIDDEN GEMS. SO IN THIS CASE, AS THIS GUY TURNED UP WITH A STRIPPED, MINIMAL, DRY AND DRIVING 4 TRACK TECHNO EP, THAT DOES NOT NEED TO SHY COMPARISON TO TRACKS ON TRESOR OR SIMILAR LABELS. HIGHLY RECOMMENED, AND I'M SURE THESE WON'T STICK AROUND FOR VERY LONG. ONE TO BE WATCHED, I THINK..."

hey i remember that first track from the live jam u posted a few months back

are you going to release these on the net as mp3 too?

hey Komplex, thanks for checking it out. all the tracks on the EP were in the lve set in one form or another, some of them have changed quite a bit.

I wasn't going to release the mp3's until after the vinyl had sold out but since I've got bandwidth to spare, here are most of the tracks, for a limited time. it should be noted that these are the unmastered originals, the vinyl version sounds better in my opinion.

really digging that 'apocalypse' track off your EP, great dirty funky rhythm. 'aftermath' sounds sweet too.

cheers,
Matt

Cheers Matt

I'm downloading your tracks now!

When your discs sell out be sure to drop Markku over at www.foryourears.com an email. They'll help you out with moving your release onto mp3 downloads

i like the website and the previews

Thanks for the sweet 256kb links Oh and in aggree with you about curb your enthusiasm (Genius), but dissagree about the synth washes, I think.

Otherwise your Coo day la!

Yeah, Curb Your Enthusiasm is the funniest thing I've seen for years! Thnx for checking the site out. Looking forward to hearing your EP on D1, I liked a few of the tracks on your site - especially Astro. I'm a bit of a sucker for a room shaking sub line.

Good for you Mat.

More power ta ya!
