Birth Of Frequency / Mike Storm – Suburban Avenue 005 [SAV005]
Another split is on the way of the Suburban Avenue team. This is the turn of two young and talented producers coming from the new school, both nostalgic of the Techno of the origins: Birth of Frequency and Mike Storm. A side is entrusted to the refined hands of the French producer, A1 No Wonder” is a brilliant and direct techno track inspired by British school of the nineties. A2 The fugitive” is deeper and hypnotic. The precious B Side is made by the Dutch producer Mike Storm, both tracks B1 The one we know” and B2 Into Formation” are minimalistic and represent some old school spaced out Techno trips. Retro-Futuristic affairs continue.

Bruno Sacco – Laq 03 [ATTICL003]
Attic Laqs series continues with the owner of Gravite Records Bruno Sacco. His work starts with some grainy-noisey grooves in a danceable rhythm and pressurized synths. In the b-side Sacco turns into a nine minutes deep techno track ‘Imaginaria’. A dark corridor where different shades of pads get a conversation with an acidic chord in a lighted nocturnal way.

Threemore edits from one of the original house music creator Ron Hardy. Patrick Cowley – Mind Warp, King Sporty & the ExTras – Haven’t Been Funked Enough, Strafe – Set It Off (instrumental).
A Band Called Flash – S/T [FVW003]
Created by the inspired young Jared Hines and produced by master minds Ron Trent and Jonecy, this self titled follow up to ”Mother Confessor” features four etherial, lush tracks that have a live feel and are equally heavenly. Inspired by the Jazz Funk elements of UK outfit Atmosfear and the alternative Disco sounds of Dinosaur L, presented here, A Band Called Flash embrace the energy of “live” dance music. Reminiscent of the early 80’s Boogie sound, A Band Called Flash will surely capture the attention of the more eclectic, global dance floor.

Professor Inc. – Copper Oil EP [PHONOGRAMME020]
Villalobos – Detroit Heroes EP [MUSIK098]
The A side is a signature sounding track, the B side is unusually straight compared to most of his recent productions and builds a great tension if you let it play for a while.
Imre Kiss – Overthrown [LTWHT008]
Lobster Theremin welcome back one of the original LT fam, with Imre Kiss taking the reigns for a full on raw-power white label. With two lucid and hazy releases for LT in his wake, plus an excellent contribution to the Proto Sites catalogue, Imre finally returns with a rough and overdriven in-the-dance EP of floor-crushing fire.
Gazatech – I’m Okay [PRIVATEPERSONS001]
Private Persons share their first release packed with chilled, house-y beats by the mysterious Gazatech. “I’m Okay” is a twist of melancholic melodies and soothing beats. A dreamy, tranquilizing journey providing a soft soundtrack to a lazy late-night forest wander. Euphoric horns drift over tight snares and undulating low end, taking you on an elevated trip to the spiritual side of the cosmos.
