‘The Hunt‘ is One Track Brain‘s latest EP on his own label OTB Records. For his third release of the year, which will be out on November 29th 2019, he is expressing his constant hunt for meaning and timelessness.
In his quest, he is helped by Berghain-resident Efdemin who released EPs on Curle Recordings and Stroboscopic Artefacts in 2018, as well as an album on Ostgut Ton earlier this year. He produced two remixes for this EP, giving two different interpretations of One Track Brain‘s work. One Track Brain shared with us his thoughts about the EP :
‘On the hunt for timelessness we travel far and wide and realize only the wisest and stupidest of men never change. Brilliance borders lunacy. Extreme wisdom and extreme stupidity are the same. When you know everything you know nothing. Just as minus infinity reaches plus infinity and forms a circle. Just as extreme right wing and extreme left wing are basically the same but arrived from a different angle. Extremely bad taste becomes good, and extremely good taste is contrived. The truth is in the middle (yes I have come at an age where I can say that) so we have to embrace change to be the only constant. Everything and everyone always changes. So what does it mean “to be timeless”?
A very special thanks to Efdemin. The story goes like this:
He gave us the strong winds remix. We told him it’s a bomb. We also said it‘s a little sad maybe perhaps that it contains so little of the original. “Oh let me try something” was his answer. And the very next day we got sent the good winds mix. Of course we asked if we could include both mixes. How could we choose? ‘
You can listen to the full premiere of the ‘Strong Mix’ by Efdemin exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
Release date : November 29th, 2019.
