Funckarma - Dubstoned 5 EP

As we've been stalking the Funckens for ten years now, after stumbling upon their parts series on DUB when we were still students,
trekking religiously to the Sirius on weekends, eventually spending nights in bus shelters to assist to half a live in a school that only
served wine, and trying to organise a bash with them in a squat that burned down a week before the bash, before finally inviting them
to an exhibition closing party that incidentally marked the beginning of Thin Consolation, they seemed an obvious choice for a release
for the tenth anniversary of UNREzT and the fifth of Thin Consolation.
Having already graced Thin Consolation with an album in 2006 as Dif:use (with long-time partner Cor Bolten), this time we requested
from them a 12" of a more step-ish inspiration, the fifth in the Dubstoned series, the previous editions having been released on
Highpoint Lowlive, Ad Noiseam and Eat Concrete. In so many words, the Dubstoned series is the last major electronic musical genre
to have appeared - Dubstep - to be given the special Funcken treatment: a dark and brooding, dub-flavoured electronica. Not for the
faint hearted. Mepeche is co-produced by Phinx, and Spectrum is a remix of a track by Eedl, released on the album 'Everse', on the
Barcelona-based label spa.RK.
