Hackman – More Than Ever EP [PTN002]
Hackman’s productions have a certain sheen and a peculiarly humid quality that make them unmistakable. His impressive grasp of bass betrays his initial foray into dubstep, and it lends his music a power both nuanced and visceral.
Fabrice Lig – Genesis Of A Deep Sound [FA019]
New full length CD from the man, Fabrice Lig. Nice combination of downbeat tracks, electro and classic Detroit techno as we know of Fabrice Lig! Perfect versatile Nice price CD release with all the extra’s, beautiful artwork!
Don Williams – Dynamic Rain [BAUD003]
Don Williams provides two deep and tricky Detroit jackers for Baud. ‘Dynamic Rain’ is lead by future-tribal tom patterns and sparse, abstract synthlines. The idiosyncratic ‘Glis Groove’ on the flip reminds of Redshape (who coincidentally mastered this 12″) with deep shuffling arrangement tinged with a sci-fi house vibe. Lovely heavy card sleeve and top class cut & mastering job.
Claudio Mate – Trippin Dub EP [SNEJL016]
Snejl 16th release faces the italian Claudio Mate with a wonderful 3 tracker oozing Detroit techno with a blend of chicago and house. Deep, driving techno from Snejl.
Metrobox – Cabaret Modulaire [MORSE017]
Urban Tribe Interview
Chaton – +91 Ahead Session 4 [PLK022]
Part 4 from the remixes series brings an eternal raw groove, dirty keys, deep & dub chords. Extended house for club abuse from Quarion and Se-te-ve.
Samuli Kemppi – Kosmos EP [KOMISCH04]
‘Kosmos’ and ‘Massa’ cuts are mesmerizing and sophisticated techno. PVH’s remix of ‘Massa’ shreds some of the tense rhythmic muscle to leave an unstable undercarriage of delayed bass kicks and ‘Suunta’ adds a cold thrilling melody to frost any room it’s deployed in.
Relict – Digital Curved Sky [LEAK003]
Coming up on Data Leak records a joint venture between Bas roR and Paul du Lac… four surprisingly fresh techno/house hybrids full of emotion and energy, connecting the past with the present…
Art Bleek – The Real Thing EP [SHV002]
Second release on Sharivari Records, coming from Parisian musician Art Bleek. On the A side, The Real Thing is a funk-flavored masterpiece, starting with gorgeous deep chords and evolving into a funky and sexy house track, while Midnight Marauders is a straight P-funk smasher, with big clap, funky bassline and wild vocals. The B side features The Real Thing remixed by Swiss producer Agnès, who gives to the original track his usual magic touch with a building house rework. At last, Little Hollywood closes the EP with a hypnotic and minimal groove.
