Vitamine Source is now landing on the blue planet from
the heights of the Stratosphere with their first, brandnew
5 Track E.P “Barracuda Astronauts”!
At close to six feet in length the giant barracuda, with
its huge mouth filled with sharp teeth, can present a quite
frightening sight to a diver. In tropical regions the
barracuda is highly feared by divers, not just because of
its formidable appearance, but also because it is very
unpredictable. Unlike the shark, the barracudas are not
known to silently creep up on a victim since what they
perceive in their under water world is not so much by
smell, but more by sight. Once the barracuda has spied a
diver it is not uncommon for them to continue following
until the possible prey has left the water or disappeared
from their line of sight.
The audiovisual platform Vitamine Source was founded in
Vienna, Austria in 2000. Since day one the collective is
appointing its own tempo and is now landing on the blue
planet from the heights of the Stratosphere with
“Barracuda Astronauts”.
Headed by the notorious journalist/producer Quote35 and the
powerful Emcee Jax (Binkis Recs) from Atlanta the opener
reveals a transatlantic axis. “Action Jaxson”
is a powerfully eloquent and funked-out molotow cocktail
– it outlines Jax´s and Q35´s very own definition of
action.
The sound wizard Chromosonic causes bloodshot eyes and wild
sweat breakouts. Chromosonic was trained on classical piano
and steps to darker regions with the brutally hypertonic
“Krell”. Breakbeats for all! Dorian Concept
serves “Warm cookies and cold milk”. The 20
year old musician kidnaps the listener and takes him on an
easy-going roller-coaster ride of bizarrely arranged and
complex soundscapes, which point out that his musical roots
cannot be defined easily.
The versatile musician and producer Kava is spinning the
wheels and constructs a moving and flexile tricylce with
“Sayno” - consisting of firm beats, sticky
melodies and clever placed speech-samples. A sure shot for
the floor! Tazza contests the big final, clearly
identifiable coded “It´s showtime”. This one
will make you move! The uptempo smasher particulary shines
through its roughness - rolling basslines, breaks and
filters blend into the trademark strictness and elegance of
the Tango. ”It´s showtime” completes a small
cross-section of the broad Vitamine Source cosmos. The
barracuda astronauts settle down on planet earth.
