[IF? Records IF043]

Here's the debut release from Melbourne's Paul Derons, and the latest addition to the IF? roster.

Enclave is the latest artist to join IF?, harking from the label's hometown and old stomping ground - and marks a welcome return to the "acid" tech sounds that hallmarked IF? when it first kicked off in 1995, produced by a guy who purchased his first TR-505 in 1991 - but all taken from the rather beneficial hindsight of a contemporary perspective, o' course!

Ironyism is available online today as a 5-track digital download, exclusively through Addictech here:

TRACK-LISTING/MUZIKAL ANALYSIS BY ENCLAVE

1 Resynd (Sinhouse Edit) (8:18)
"A tough, rolling techno track - largely produced on a RS7000 groovebox."

2 Ironyism (5:49)
"Deep, dirty Plump DJs-influenced booty tek - with some more serious industrial textures thrown in for good measure."

3 Squelcha (Live) (5:06)
"As the track name suggests, super-squelchy acid, performed and semi-improvised live on the newly remodeled Korg DS-10 portasynth/sequencer on the Nintendo DS gaming platform. Bouncy acid - super-duper tweaked before your ears."

4 Specialbraanch (6:21)
"Some seriously thick swaggering booty tek - inspired as much by dirty tech/electro as it is by some of my favourite post-rock acts (The Jesus Lizard, Ricaine). Think a Rickenbacker bass played through a big muff pedal, accompanied by a crankin' beatbox."

5 Cakey (Live Remix) (8:00)
"An older, unreleased remix of a wide open rolling techno/minimal track - produced and performed live on my old, trusty RS7000 groovebox."

Paul, who is a Boag's Strongarm Bitter man, puts it all in perspective best himself: "I have been producing and playing a more streamlined mélange of tough electro, minimal, deep house and techno in recent times, and I believe this is amply reflected on my debut IF? Records offering," he says.
