HEMONY GARBLIN' GAYNOR — Taking Care Of Business EP

Hemony Garblin Gaynor – Taking Care Of Business EP Hemony Garblin Gaynor launches Discolution International Records with Taking Care Of Business, a tightly focused three-track 12-inch built around raw acid energy, stripped-back techno structures and uncompromising club functionality. Released as DIR 001, the record establishes the label with a concise statement of machine-driven underground dance music. Taking Care Of Business (Original Mix) opens the release with a direct acid workout. The track is built around a persistent 126 BPM groove, with the rhythm section providing a firm foundation for the acidic electronic movement above it. Its appeal lies in repetition and pressure rather than elaborate arrangement: the groove stays locked while the synthetic elements create tension around the central rhythmic framework. The production has a deliberately raw character. Rather than smoothing the edges of the sound, Hemony Garblin Gaynor keeps the emphasis on the physical relationship between kick, bass and acid-toned electronics. The result is a functional club record with the stripped-down intensity associated with underground acid techno and early tech-house crossover records. The specialist retailer description classifies the release across Acid, Tech House and Techno and specifically identifies its sound as raw acid. Got Stuck? continues on the B-side with the same 126 BPM foundation but approaches the material from a slightly different angle. The track maintains the release's economical production philosophy, allowing the rhythmic pattern and acidic tonal movement to carry the arrangement. Its effectiveness comes from consistency: the groove remains central while subtle shifts in the electronic layers provide enough movement for extended mixing. Squaring The Circle closes the EP with another tightly controlled club construction. The track completes the three-piece sequence without introducing unnecessary stylistic detours, reinforcing the record's focus on rhythm, acid sonics and dancefloor pressure. Taken together, the three tracks form a coherent debut statement. Taking Care Of Business is not designed around elaborate melodic development or crossover appeal; its strength is the physical impact of a well-defined groove and the tension generated by raw electronic timbres. The 45 RPM format further suits the release's compact, high-energy approach. Each track is given a focused presentation, while the limited edition of only 188 copies adds a distinctly small-run character to the physical release. The record is pressed on black vinyl and was issued as a limited edition. For DJs, DIR 001 offers three concise tools for acid, techno and tech-house sets. The consistent 126 BPM tempo makes the record particularly straightforward to integrate into a developing groove, while the raw acid character gives each side a strong sonic identity. Taking Care Of Business ultimately works as an uncompromising label introduction: three tracks, one tightly defined rhythmic vocabulary and no unnecessary excess. Hemony Garblin Gaynor sets the tone for Discolution International Records with a record aimed squarely at DJs who value pressure, repetition and raw machine-driven club music.
