octopus1 | SIAN • Flood EP (incl. Gui Boratto remix)
First up is Sian,remixed by Gui Boratto. Sian produces mainly for Karmarouge, the much loved Koln imprint and also home of artists Gabriel Ananda, Pablo Akaros and remixers like Dominik Eulberg, Villalobos and Luciano.He has also has made records for Pokerflat(incl Steve Bug remix),Einmaleins (incl Sweet n candy remix) and Dessous,which have established him as one of "weird new kids" on the scene,already his records and dj sets are supported by everyone from Laurent Garnier ,Ame, Ripperton, Patrick Chardronnet , Joey Beltram etc etc, he has gathered great press attention from DJ mag, De:Bug, Mixmag, Groove, IDJ etc.Has been recently been featured on 3 Essential mixes from BBC1 in a row and is regularly front page news on Beatport.
With a reputation for wild dj sets,he is now booked solidly each weekend.Think of him as a hyper-active, mega output,workaholic,artist,label A&R,now globe trotting dj and techno composer and you get the basic idea.He also manages to remix the most diverse people from Audiofly/Looselips to Satoshi Fumi to the upcoming remixes for Gabriel Ananda,Laurine frost and the Vegetable Orchestra(this project also includes mixes by Luciano/Villalobos, Anja Schneider, Dominik Eulberg)
With the first Octopus relase,"Flood" A side is infectious,melodic and wonderfully refined, its neu techno with real purpose.
on the B side Gui, leader of the new breed of south american producers, and responsible for many of Kompakt recent hits, he turns "Flood" into and epic, warm and truly ecstatic moment. His mix is both rough and clunky and so precise, typical of this maestro. A friend and inspiration,since our first conversations,Gui was always first choice for remixing Octopus 1.

It still gives me the creeps to think that son-of-a-gun could do that.

You are downstairs with 3 switches in front of you. each of these 3 switches controls one of the 3 lightbulbs upstairs, but you don't know which switch controls which lightbulb. The only way to see the lightbulbs is to go upstairs, and you can only go upstairs once. How do you find out which switches control which lightbulbs?

I assume you can see the light from downstairs, and can unscrew bulbs:
while downstairs, flip one switch. go upstairs, see which was on. Now unscrew one of the other bulbs. go back downstairs, deactivate the active switch, and flip one of the others; if a light appears upstairs, then it is the still-in other bulb, otherwise it's the one you removed.

A nice sneak guess attack but "The only way to see the lightbulbs is to go upstairs", so sorry but you are INCORRECT.

I said to see the LIGHT, not the BULBS.
The things I listed at first after "I assume" were ambiguities in the description.

also if you think through the cases (number of switches flipped), it becomes clear that you maximally determine one switch/bulb connection when looking at the lamps, and thus there is some stupid trick involved; and since you rejected my stupid trick, you are looking for a particular one, so just put yourself out of your misery.

Since you could steam roller my head if you wanted to I will just give you the solution and beg you not to hurt me. turn one switch for like 2 minutes, turn it off and turn on another. go up and see which one is on and which feels hot. ZING!
