[http://www.subvariant.com/cms/more.php?id=41_0_2_0_M] September 19, 2005 For Immediate Release SUBVARITRAX™ TO PROVIDE RELIEF FROM SONIC MEDIOCRITY OVEREXPOSURE (SMO) Chicago, IL— Subvaritrax™--an important new treatment for millions of people suffering from Sonic Mediocrity Overexposure (SMO)--will be publicly available in over-the-counter, Compact Disc form from Subvariant Recordings on October 25, 2005. “It’s an instrumental neurostimulant proven to help people with SMO, as well as being an enjoyable listen in its own right,” says label president, Elizabeth McLean Knight. Subvaritrax™ works by providing a mix between emotionally-poignant-yet-sonically-dense Intelligent Dance Music (IDM), and scientifically formulated, provocatively glitchy minimal techno. Sixteen musical artists from across the globe have contributed individual tracks to this groundbreaking concept and musical endeavor, among them Quench (aka Funckarma), Kero [Detroit Underground, Ghostly International, City Centre Offices, Bpitch Control, Shitkatapult], edIT [Planet-Mu], Quantazelle [Modsquare.com] and Tim Koch [Merck, n5md]. From the skittering algorithmic percussion and sheer melodic deftness of Phylum Sinter’s “Monastic Phase,” to the raging Nintendo party jam of R_Garcia’s “Honkeywrench,” to Popkan’s quirkily-funky glitched-out house interpretation, Subvaritrax™ delivers over seventy-nine minutes of quality, instrumental abstract electronic music from a diverse range of exceptionally talented electronic musicians. Resembling a medicinal single-dose packet and presented in a hermetically-sealed folder (with hilarious “warnings” on the reverse), the design of the over-the-counter form of Subvaritrax™ is in line with the creative direction of the label, following up the “designer beverage coaster” concept of the previous release, Quantazelle’s Coaster [SUBV001]. Subvaritrax™ will also be available in “prescription only” form [SUBV002rx]. This limited-edition form includes a CD in a transparent orange jewel case with a label featuring the “patient”’s name (customized to reflect the eventual owner) and dosage instructions on the front. This is placed inside a white, pharmacy-type paper bag, and sheets of “additional medication information” are folded and stapled to the top of the bag in a manner remarkably similar to pharmacy packaging. The public release of Subvaritrax™ will be heralded at a release party at Sonotheque (1444 W. Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL) that will feature live performances from artists featured on the compilation and mixed sets from label DJs. --------------- SUBVARITRAX™--an important new treatment for millions of people suffering from Sonic Mediocrity Overexposure (SMO)--will be publicly available in over-the-counter, Compact Disc form from Subvariant Recordings on October 25, 2005. Featuring a mix between emotionally-poignant-yet-sonically-dense Intelligent Dance Music (IDM), and scientifically formulated, provocatively glitchy minimal techno, it features tracks from sixteen musicians including Quench, Kero, edIT, Quantazelle, Tim Koch and more. The release party will be held at Sonotheque in Chicago on Tuesday, October 25, 2005. --------------- SUBVARIANT RECORDINGS is a Chicago-based record label committed to releasing boundary-pushing, abstract electronic music, as well as innovative approaches to the promotion and presentation of each artist’s work.

The bulk of the 12 tracks here work straight from the classic Warp playbook, with skittering rhythms indebted to Amber-era Autechre before the pair’s beats went all algorhythmic on us" -GROOVES "...The music is exquisitely complex and abstract, with elements of electronic and acoustic instrumentation constantly set on a collision course with found sounds and sharp pseudo-industrial beat structures...superbly unique and creative, yet captivating and engaging"-THE MILK FACTORY -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
