Obviously, Dubloop's new Pertin-nce netrelease "Ko-jee-ma" isn't about the perfected layouts normally found in "minimal" production. Inside the window of his windowless Quebec City studio, Maxime Tanguay generously makes use of many oblique accidents (or were they planned out beforehand?) and captures the unpredictability of a live performance in four distinct yet related pieces. With Dubloop, he's found the perfect alias for falling happily off the safety net of a DAW grid. Like previous Dubloop recordings, any found sound can take form the basis of a track. In this release, Maxime used field recordings from a winter getaway to Cuba's "Ko-jee-ma" (or was it the Villa Cojimar Resort? Max doesn't quite remember) as the basis of the primary 'ambient dub' sound. And then there's the story of the EP itself. Created years after the visit to Cuba, things get a bit hazy upon recollection. But there's a narrative to the disorientation where nothing is lost in translation but recaptured, remembered and reinterpreted. There's something that happens on Day 1: "adaptation", "figuring out", "wondering why" upon entering this new virtual or physical real of experience. Eventually, we arrive at Day 2 and "su-pero" -- which means the hotel has just stocked the minibar with a dark bottle of Cubay and some singing Guaracheros possibly just turned a corner three blocks away. Disorienting, imprecise. We learn to grasping at things and meaning, then let them go. links : www.pertin-nce.com www.myspace.com/pertinnce www.beatport.com/labels/pertin_nce www.pertin.etsy.com
