  • Tempo EP

    RUMPEP001

    Artist: System

    Label: Rump Recordings

    New material from Denmarks 3 electronic pioneers is a quite rare experience.
    No wonder when you look at the groupmembers solo-output and label involvement. Many of Anders Remmer´s Dub Tractor releases on City Center Offices as well as Thomas Knak´s Opiate releases on April, Morr Music and Raster Noton (with Alva Noto as Opto) has long been acclaimed as milestones in modern electronic music.
    Thomas Knak has also been busy with his Hobby Industries label, producing for Björk on the Vespertine album as well as remixing for Efterklang, Sketch Show and Ryuichi Sakamoto.
    And then there is Jesper Skaanings´s Acustic project, which was featured on Rump in 2005 with the ”Welcome” album.

    So after 5 years of silence, System is back with an EP entitled “Tempo EP” that shows the trio in more unfamiliar upbeat territories.
    This doesn´t really come as a big surprise though. Since the early Future 3-days, the trio has found pleasure in experimenting with different electronic genres of the day, from the melodic dub-ambient on the debut ”We are the Future 3” to the understated escapades into drum´n´bass on their breakthrough hit: ”The Boy From West Bronx” from 1998´s ”Stay With”.
    Where ”Like...” from 2001 was close to being pop-electronica, the ”System” album from 2002 (released on Scape) saw the trio break away from the melodicism that had characterized their work since the beginning.
    The sound on the album was so strinkingly different that the group felt a new name, System, was necessery.

    In a way “Tempo EP” continues the sound of the System album, only this time presented in a slightly faster tempo, hence the title.
    It´s no secret that the group have been listening to two-step and dub-step, but instead of being a rip off of the genre, System incorporates the UK-styles into their own sound universe, creating something that sounds much more like System than like Skream.
