The underground spiritual game

Efdemin

Efdemin, aka Phillip Sollmann, is a Berlin producer who's leading the way forward through the converging thickets of minimal, deep house and techno. Last month Efdemin released his debut album on Hamburg's Dial imprint, home to lush like-minded technoists Pantha Du Prince and Lawrence. But whereas Lawrence is about the romantic pads and Pantha the melodies, Efdemin is all about the careful, calculated groove. Wondering where this attention to detail comes from? Efdemin is a graduate of the Institute for Computer Music in Vienna, where he put together sound installations as well as worked on a contemporary opera morphing sopranos into howling voices. He also used to sing in a band, although you might not know it from his clothes. One of the snappiest dressed men in dance music, Efdemin's rarely spotted not wearing a shirt and tie.

Elias Mazian

Elias é mais um sinal de uma geração que foi educada na imensa fonte pop-rock, com derivações mais acústicas e folk no seu caso específico, mas cujas referências assentam na língua que Camões ofereceu ao mundo. E, como todos bem sabemos, “amo-te” e “i

love you” não rimam da mesma maneira.

Álvaro Costa enquadrou-o bem quando o apresentou, num dos seus programas da RTP, como alguém “a meio caminho entre António Variações e os Rolling Stones”, um amplo terreno que Elias explora com autoridade, inteligência, humor e refinamento em Talvez Queiras Ficar, o seu trabalho de estreia em formato grande.

Vindo do Porto, terra de muitas mais referências evidentes, de Rui Reininho e Manel Cruz em diante, Elias conquistou para a produção do seu primeiro álbum Nuno Mendes, homem que já assumiu a mesa de mistura em trabalhos de Best Youth ou Salto e que garante aqui a dose certa de século XXI. Pelos recantos melódicos e rítmicos do álbum passam depois experientes convidados como António Serginho (Retimbrar, Foge Foge Bandido), Eurico Amorim (Supernada, Pedro Abrunhosa), Tito Romão (Salto, Best Youth) e o saxofonista João Guimarães.

O trunfo principal, no entanto, talvez esteja mesmo na ponta da caneta e da língua de Elias: canções com alma, sem serem fadistas, com poesia, sem serem difíceis, com ideias novas, sem serem complicadas. Canções que têm estofo de rádio, que conseguem pornos a sorrir ou a pensar ou até a fazer tudo isso ao mesmo tempo. Já o conhecíamos de temas como “Cientista Profissional” ou “Quem te Disse”, mas na sua bagagem há muitas

outras pérolas prontas para serem descobertas pelos nossos ouvidos.

A capacidade de escrita, de surpresa, de interpretação, tem outros bónus em Elias, que também imagina e realiza vídeos, sempre com conceitos que apanham os nossos olhos desprevenidos e se revelam sintomas de uma mente irrequieta e criativa, que acredita que não há forma que não se encaixe. Basta um bocadinho de jeito. E alguma arte. Ponham o disco a tocar: talvez queiram ficar por aí...
