by B.D.B, BICEP and Benjamin Damage
— Released 6th August 2024 on CHROMA
Reuniting with fellow electronic producer and stalwart of the UK/ Berlin techno scene Benjamin Damage under their B.D.B alias, “CHROMA 005 A.L.O.E” is their second collaboration for the label following previous single “CHROMA 002 L.A.V.A”
“This track came together in our London studio when Ben was over visiting,” explain the duo. “Whenever Ben’s in town we always experiment with something new, and in this case it was a custom setup with a Cirklon sequencer. The bea...
Reuniting with fellow electronic producer and stalwart of the UK/ Berlin techno scene Benjamin Damage under their B.D.B alias, “CHROMA 005 A.L.O.E” is their second collaboration for the label following previous single “CHROMA 002 L.A.V.A”
“This track came together in our London studio when Ben was over visiting,” explain the duo. “Whenever Ben’s in town we always experiment with something new, and in this case it was a custom setup with a Cirklon sequencer. The beauty of that is you can only really capture live takes, and never really return to a specific pattern again. We really love this one, and included it in our final run of live shows in 2022, so we’re really happy to get this one finally out there.”
Though billed as an AV/DJ performance, the ‘Bicep present CHROMA’ shows are actually more of a hybrid between DJ and live. The pair have several pedals and a drum machine they can use on stage, and there is a connection between the decks and the visuals team which allows the latter to see what is being played in real-time adapting their visuals accordingly. This in turn gives Bicep the freedom to experiment with each performance, keeping the visuals and music working in tandem, no matter the direction they decide to take things.
“A.L.O.E” marks the fifth release in the CHROMA label series, and follows the recent Bicep release “ROLA”; “Bi83”, released under their DOVE alias; their previous collaboration with Benjamin Damage titled “L.A.V.A”; and inaugural Bicep CHROMA single “HELIUM”.
