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.
