Bleak – Disfunktion EP [DRH039]

Cover art - Bleak: Disfunktion EP

The second Bleak release on Deeply Rooted House. DJ Deep: “I have been very impressed with Bleak’s talent and how he can combine different styles of techno and still produce very personal music. Each track, in my opinion, has a life of it’s own, it starts in a certain way, and takes you to different places. The arrangements are very subtle, sometimes hypnotic, very intense and emotional, the way the drums evolve and drive the tracks, or how deep chords apear in the back ground taking the track to a differrent territory etc. I hope you’ll like this 12” as much as I do!’

Clouded Vision – City Thunder EP [TOB025]

New release on Throne Of Blood by Clouded Vision aka Matt Walsh and Steve Cook. Opening track “City Thunder” finds Clouded Vision in reflective mood, especially when the track opens up into the core section of warm laser like synths and new age cooing. It’s given markedly more rhythmic urgency by Chamboche, whose uptempo refix treats the aforementioned synth elements with cavernous dub and dices them to fit neatly into his own skipping grooves. On the flip, “Alien Race” replaces warmth with darkness as the track’s throbbing acidic DNA is slowly extracted over a slowed down jak beat, while Turbo fellas Gingy & Bordello take the track further down the rabbit hole on their new jack techno refix.

Jump “Chico” Slamm – Galactic Alignment [RH041]

‘Galactic Alignment’ is the new single by the elusive Jump “Chico” Slamm. While working on a reissue of aforementioned ‘Feel Free’ from Slamm Project, an unreleased recording came to light which immediately lit our fire. ‘Galactic Alignment’ was just too good to remain in the vaults, so it got dusted off and readied for release. Although this jewel has been lying dormant for some years, it sounds very current. Better yet, it has a timeless feel and has the unique appeal to take dance floors both intimate and extravagant.
