Superlux Records releases EP by Taymor Zadeh ft. Subb-an remix

Superlux Records continues its release schedule this December with a debut EP from Taymor Zadeh. The four-track ​Life Goes On EP includes three originals from the UK-based artist, as well as a special remix from One Records co-founder, Subb-an.

Speaking on the production process behind the EP, Taymor describes how “​Life Goes On was made using ​a tb303, roland mc505, a 909 which I borrowed from a good friend, some vocal samples from old tape recordings and a load of imagination.”

The A Side gets underway with ​Bubbleworks​, and Taymor’s “imagination” is plain to see. It’s a no-nonsense club-ready cut, with thick hats and an up-tempo lead bassline residing next to an array of bubble-sounding pops throughout. That same late-night feel continues into ​Life Goes On​, as eerie vocals flitter between pulses of acid and punchy, whip-like drums. On the B Side, ​Gekula takes the lead. Fast-paced with clear minimal influences, we’re graced with eight minutes of dancefloor-geared delight as distorted voices reside atop a driving kick-hat backbone, before Subb-an’s remix continues in the same vein, taking us deep into 5 AM territory with glitchy synths and plenty of dark, low-slung percussion.

With an ethos of quality over quantity at his core, Taymor Zadeh ​has carved out a bespoke sound within the electronic music sphere. In recent times his releases have been welcomed by Stephane Genacia’s Highpath Records as well as Luca C’s See Double imprint, a testament to his keen ear for production. Berlin-based ​Subb-an is a leading figure in the UK minimal scene. As co-founder of One Records, 2020 has seen the label celebrate ten years of releases with a two-part vinyl sampler, including tracks from the likes of Anna Wall, Matthew Johnson and more besides.
