"Alphabet Center", the new EP on the Motronic Netlabel, brings together three of the nations most talented young electronic music producers: from Rio, Ivan LP (aka Radio Guidance), and from the state of Minas Gerais, Tee (aka 3nity) and Menorah. Influenced by " obsolete technologies, future oppression and film noir", Ivan provides the two base points for the EP, "War of Words" and "Alphabet Center", with a remix each from the guys from Minas.

"War of Words" refers directly to early Detroit, with robotic repetition, dry rhythms and samples harking back to early 1950's radio - a beautiful take on old minimal techno, without following fad and trends. The Menorah remix of "War of Words" adds more weight and groove, transforming it into a heavy dance floor weapon whilst maintaining the essence of the original.

In "Alphabet Center", Ivan clearly demonstrates his connection with the sound of Detroit, combining refined keys with a seriously heavy bass-line. The result is elegant and deep Tech House. DJ Tee (3nity) provides the dynamic and hypnotising remix.
