Photonz – Corroios Royalty EP [SIL019]

As one of the frontrunners of the new Portuguese house sound Photonz has been flexing a balance between the UK and the Continent way before it became a question of ZIP codes for him, and the EP’s true to this intricate signature. On the flipside, Silverback staple The Phantom reinterprets Parque da Liberdade as an old school flavoured, meditation-tinged piano jam, while London heavyweight Ikonika injects the same track with a dose of her trademark retrofuturistic funky.

Derek Carr – Knoe 5/1 [KNOE5/1]

Derek Carr is a name known by few and far between, with only a handful of vinyl releases in the early 2000s, he built a worthy but unfortunately not widely-spread reputation for putting together stunning deep techno. Originally pressed in finite numbers, the records have recently found themselves in demand on Discogs, and rightly so, Derek’s music is in a class of its own. Having been a big fan since his releases on then local (to label owner Ben) Leeds label Geek Records, For Those That Knoe has dug deep into the archives to put together a sizeable selection of Derek’s back catalogue, with some unreleased gems dotted amongst the classic must-haves.

Janeret – Midnight Soul [FS032]

Finale Sessions is excited to have another Parisian on our superb roster and Janeret is not one to sleep on that’s for sure . So we are getting right to the music with the first track “Midnight Soul” One of my favorites for sure with its beautiful keys and its rich pads and it’s enormous bass this track is a latenight beater for sure. Track two”Contrast”is more on the techier side of things with more pads and a think basline no question a floor pumper it also has really nice drums to flavor that nice vocal. Track three ” Subdub ” This track is more for the dub Techno crowd for sure with its super deep chords and its deep sub ambiance sound Track four ” Ehtereal ” Electro Madness is I am going to say.
