Latest release on Richie Hawtin’s label is a longplayer from new signing JPLS. ‘Twilite’ arrives at the end of May.
JPLS's brand of stripped down, understated minimal techno made its appearance on M_nus on the 2006 ‘min2MAX’ compilation. He followed it up with the 12” ‘Program’, which had the distinction of being perhaps the most minimal thing ever released on the label. Now his debut longplayer is set to arrive, promising ten tracks of sparse minimalism in a similar vein. The album arrives with a couple of JPLS remixes by fellow Indiana native Skoozbot, whose tracks have been in the boxes of Hawtin, Magda and Matthew Dear for a while now but have yet to see a release.
JPLS also performs as a live act. He played at the ‘min2MAX’ showcase at the DEMF in Detroit in 2006 and the M_nus New Year’s Eve showcase in Rome where he performed live in front of 10,000 people.
