A1. El Túnel B1. Proceso B2. Proceso (Barnt Remix) C.P.I. is the brainchild of Marc Piñol and Hugo Capablanca. Marc is an old acquaintance of our label, both in remixing duties and as a stalwart of our Hiverned series. Hugo is one of Berlin's most charismatic DJs, who has already shown his unorthodox production skills on labels such as Cómeme, Gomma or his own Discos Capablanca. Now, they join forces to channel their shared love for Psychic TV, industrial music and New Beat through murky club tunes. "Proceso" and "El Túnel" are the result of two intense afternoons of studio-work in Barcelona. The main body of both tracks was recorded on the fly to keep to their primary energy, but then roun- ded up with all sorts of overdubs, synths and effects. At first sight they're two straightforward tracks bounded to heat up dancefloors. But through repeated listens they reveal countless details that keep us trapped in their dark and sultry atmosphere. Both songs worship hypnotic repetition; "Proceso" by merging caustic synths and jacking pulses in obsessive manner and "El Túnel" as an obscure trip that borrows structures from kraut-rock to grow into a 15 minute cosmic odyssey. In his "Proceso" remix, Magazine co-founder Barnt adds one of his signature bubbling melodies to provide a euphoric twist to the tracks' throbbing cadence. The 12" comes wrapped in an intriguing cardboard by Hivern's in-house designer Arnau Pi.
