Here comes the third release from Pit Spector’s unique live-label concept.
This first part of a double Ep, Prospector #3, which features Ben Vedren, an artist whose work ethic and approach to music is in perfect unison with Pit’s.
Conceiving a new concept that pulls together production and performance, 2014 saw Pit Spector throw a series of Prospector parties. For each soiree he invited a guest artist to his studio to work on an exclusive live show for the club, as well as new music for the label. Through 2014, Pit and Ben Vedren got together for a string of night-time jam sessions, and now they release the fruits of their labour.
The synergy between the two artists couldn’t be stronger; both have grown parallel to the Paris scene, spending ten years maturing their sound, which is focused around micro house and minimal techno – pushing that ‘less is more’ ethic to its limits.
First up we’re presented with ‘Rave -3000’, which epitomizes the duo’s ability to create depth within a seemingly minimal composition. The energy pulsates and flows throughout, with the track’s repetitive nature emanating a hypnotic allure. On side B we have ‘Trek’, a more ‘heads-down’ track, with somber keys and warped jazzy flourishes keeping things lively.
Once again the vinyl includes the corresponding Prospector party poster – original artwork by Paris street art legend O’Clock of New York’s 156 graffiti crew, who, inspired by the energy of 80s blocks parties, offers a raw and colorful manifestation of the music.
