about

Having provided the opening salvo for Chiwax in the form of the 90ʼs feeling Windy City E.P. the boys are back and this time with 8 quality cuts spread across 2 x 12” records. Using an assortment of machines to hammer out their music, and have fun doing it they
capture a raw feeling of energy and emotion which is all too often polished out of the majority of music these days. Steve Murphy & Die Roh work it out with tight rhythm tracks, and emotive machine soul that conveys a feeling of timeless beauty, juxtaposing lighter
and more hypnotic tracks such as “Star Sign” with the thundering oppression and sinister brooding strings of “Needle Eyes”.
Across the 8 tracks there is a good level of variety from heavy sounding warehouse scorchers to more gentle pieces that let the mind transcend while keeping a groove, and throughout a cohesive feel is maintained. There is not a single example which would not get a good response on the dance floor. Expertly crafted with a mixture of basses from
punchy and solid to etherial and hollow, thundering toms, acid, massive kicks, simple strings, simple vocal samples and a very lo-fi sound, it would be all too easy to start drawing comparisons and referencing people, places, times and fetishisation of machinery - but the focus should be on this LP and the fact its sounds so damn good!
Steven Murphy & Die Roh have once again shown that good results can be gained from the most simple of equipment. If you love house music that is honest - this is one is undoubtably for you.
