E. Myers – I Am Alive / Dreamland [ESTY005]
E. Myers returns just in time for the summer, with two heaters of contrasting styles. ‘I Am Alive’ is a celebration, cooked up from heavy drums, percussion and bass synth, coming together with pads and arpeggiated synths for full blown elation. ‘Dreamland’ keeps its poker face on throughout it’s entire 9 minutes. Threatening to break out but staying cool with its restrained bump, it’s equally at home in basements as it is on beaches.
Knight Action – Single Girl / D-rail [LDR071]
Ultra-rare proto-house vibes from Chicago courtesy of Still Music. This one’s long been coveted by followers of the jacking beat, the apostles of WBMX. Produced by Mike Macharello & Duane Thamm Jr this is a truly unique record and one that is very hard to obtain. If you dig the earliest grooves from the Windy City, or you have a passing interest in Italo or Freestyle then this is for you. A fully legit 12″ reissue, taken from Still Music’s recent, comprehensive overview of the ‘Let’s Dance’ label this is unmissable.
Francisco & Cosmo – Linea Beat Vol. 5 [SLOMO040]

Capofortuna – Crush On You [SLOMO039]
Capofortuna is a duo made up of Bologna-based house maestro, DJ Rame and multi-instrumentalist Ricky Cardelli from Rimini. With glorious live instrumentation and joyous arrangements this is the kind of record that is going to slip right into many DJ’s collections.

Metamrophic to present out first various artist compilation. This one features 3 up and coming artists, GOIZ, JEM, and Jacksonville, as well as one track from label head Dan Curtin.

Lake Haze – The Observer EP [CR1298]
Next up on Creme Organizaiton is Lake Haze. The Hague based Portuguese artist is a regular on this label having put out four EPs in the last two years. He’s an esteemed talent with a blistering sound that fuses futuristic techno and electro into storytelling dancefloor dynamite. Space Reservoirs kicks off this EP with slow but heavy drum work, acid twitches and spooky cosmic echoes. The Observer picks up the pace with quick and slick kicks from the streets of Detroit overlaid with ripping electro basslines and deep space atmospherics. Unexplored Oceanic Territory is expansive electro with busted drums and echoing pads that add real scale before more acid finishes things off with real rawness. Prototype is dark and heavy, with another searing baseline and crisp metallic hits, then Into The Unknown is a blissed out electro roller with dreamy pads and twinkling keys melting into the cosmos. It closes out another essential EP from this timeless producer.
N.O.I.A. / Rubicon / Rude 66 – Morning Bells [COTF16]
Crimes Of The Future continues to demonstrate its expertise in the field of modern day electro and wave based music with this incredible one off missive from an unlikely super group. N.O.I.A, Rubicon and Rude 66 join forces for the bright and bold “Morning Bells,” which stirs up a generous dose of Italo, techno and electro in a cauldron and serves it through a massive wall of synth-powered sound. Who else to remix such a concoction but Timothy J. Fairplay then? The multi-faceted London producer stays true to the original’s dazzling colour and simply beefs up the beats for a cracking alternative mix to the original.
