Nite Vision – Now is the Time [BOE014]
Nite Vision is a project from Nigel Rogers aka Perseus Traxx and Mantra that moves around early US midwestern’s house music sounds with a dim twist – which results in analog drum machine patterns melting over moody floaty pads and obscure synth leads. Rogers returs to Ben Boe’s label with a solid 9-track LP named ‘The Time Is Now’.
Tevo Howard – The Drapes In The Living Room [THUG006]
“This ep written some year and one half ago at Beautiful Granville studio features 3 dance selections, which includes the title track, The Drapes in the Livingroom. Also presented in dance form is the very long awaited Shaquanda, which is often played in my live sets. Here, we have the original and first recording of the track. Last, I am presenting Bedroom Music, which is a track designed to be played in those private moments, as well as within nightclub confines. I simply hope that you’ll find the bump in this one.” Tevo Howard
Xosar – Tropical Cruize EP [LIES008]
Debut record by the cloaked, shadow-lurking underground figure Xosar, pushes forth into the realm of cosmic mysticism with a new style of occult-tinged public access house music. Through the three tracks the artist touches upon elements of U.R. styled hi-tech trance, UK bleep, and lo-fi chi-town realness creating cohesive and effective dancefloor cuts.
Zoovox – Transistor Madness [LSR1002]
Lectric Sands presents “Transistor Madness”, the second release by Zoovox aka Ben Gebhardt (Dazzle Ships) and “Tropical” Jeremy Campbell (Tropical Computer System/Dazzle Ships/Bumrocks). They present some classic sounds of 80’s house and disco. Snappy claps, phased
hi-hats, moody synth pads, and sproings float over a swingin’ analogue bassline. The B-side, a version by Steve Summers brings it to new levels of dubbed-out psychedelia. Enhanced sproing, acid seepage, tropical synths, and Moar Cowbell.
