Press Release Suction Records is proud to present "Vendetta", a new 5-track EP from GD Luxxe, aka Gerhard Potuznik from Vienna, Austria. Mr. Potuznik is a music machine, and our fingers are not strong enough to type out his entire discography, but let's mention a few highlights: co-owner of the Angelika Köhlermann label, producer for Chicks On Speed, and releases under a slew of different monikers for labels including Disko B, Cheap, Mego, and Sabotage. GD Luxxe is Gerhard's flagship solo project, and you may recognise GD Luxxe for his releases on Interdimentional Transmissions, Breakin', and Ersatz Audio. "Vendetta" is vocal electro-pop music that would not sound at home on the International DJ Gigolos label. This is not techno music dressed in black leather and florescent pink gloves, no. "Vendetta"'s five songs are electronic pop music of the timeless variety. Two of the songs, "Garden", and "Reasons" (the latter being Suction's pick for "potential Top-10 single"!) were initially written and recorded by Gerhard in the late-1980s, now reanimated and brought back to life in 2002 for Suction. From the flower-adorned cover artwork, to the sequencer-fueled melancholy of the music, it should come as no surprise that Gerhard counts New Order's "Power, Corruption and Lies" LP as an all-time favorite. With "Vendetta", GD Luxxe takes the sound of classic-era New Order as a starting point, and makes his own statement for 2002. Honest, memorable, and sincere, "Vendetta" is a perfect slice of electronic pop music for the home and for the dancefloor. http://www.suctionrecords.com/discography/suction/suction015.html Return |
