Tracklisting:

With his long-awaited full-length 2xLP album Repetitive Moments Last Forever, Andy Vaz, the man behind Background Records, A Touch of Class, and the Soundvariation series, now moves beyond the 12-inch format. As a follow-up to the Live in Detroit CD (itself a follow-up to his earlier Live in Tokyo CD), Repetitive Moments Last Forever downplays minimal clickhouse (even though there are references to it) and the free jazz-influenced experiments of the Soundvariation series for a unique and fresh house style that favours soulfulness and strong, almost old-school grooves over technical perfection. Vaz cultivates a swinging, perpetually shape-shifting future-techno that reveals traces of hip-hop, broken beat, house, acid, throughout the album’s eight pieces. As his first love is and always has been the deeper, traditional sound of house music (the fundamental reference for genres like clicks & cuts, minimal house, microsound, and others), it doesn’t surprise that the new album’s focus is house, specifically a deep and soulful version of it. What results is a very personal, multi-faceted collection of jacking grooves that pays tribute to the electronic sounds of Vaz’s past.
