Label GB

Death From Above (DFA) is a punk funk record label founded by James Murphy, Tim Goldsworthy, and Jonathan Galkin. The label's name was inspired by Murphy's nickname for his punishing tour PA set up while working as the live sound engineer for [a472959]. Since its establishment, DFA has become synonymous with innovative and boundary-pushing music.

DFA was born out of a passion for merging punk and funk genres, resulting in a unique sound that captivates listeners. With an impressive roster of talented artists, including LCD Soundsystem and many others, the label continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in music.

Known for their authoritative presence in the industry, DFA remains at the forefront of discovering new talent and releasing groundbreaking albums. Their commitment to quality and creativity has solidified their reputation as one of the most influential labels in contemporary music.

Essaie Pas is a Montreal electronic duo consisting of Marie Davidson and Pierre Guerineau. With their unique blend of darkwave, synthpop, and techno influences, they have carved out a distinct sound in the electronic music scene.

Inspired by artists such as *Hante.*, *Paradox Obscur*, and *Marie Davidson* herself, Essaie Pas creates hauntingly beautiful tracks that captivate listeners with their atmospheric melodies and introspective lyrics. Their music often explores themes of love, desire, and existentialism.

With a discography that includes albums like "Demain est une autre nuit" and "New Path," Essaie Pas has gained recognition for their experimental approach to electronic music. They have garnered a dedicated fanbase worldwide and have performed at renowned festivals such as Primavera Sound and MUTEK.

Montreal duo Essaie pas return to DFA with a 12-inch that picks up where their 2018 album New Path left off. Earth is a blistering ride through the rave, an amalgamation of techno and trance. The galloping bassline is the backbone of the song, and Marie Davidson's vocals climb to new heights against synth stabs. Corps Etranger, with its stuttering percussion, is a slow burner in comparison. For the remix of Earth, Marco Passarani of Tiger and Woods (Running Back, Numbers) doubles down on the Italo disco angle and doesn't shy away from the more anthemic moments of the original, managing to rework it into something akin to a celebration of this "shithole" we call Earth.
