George FitzGerald – Silhouette EP [AUS1134]
FitzGerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, R&B and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. On Silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and FitzGerald’s signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. Reset is eight minutes of forward thinking UK Garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of Detroit techno. For the Silhouette remix, Roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on Dial Records, Glass Eights. A breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment.
VA – MCDE 06/07 [MCDE1206/07]
Motor City Drum Ensenble is back with a double 12” set, featuring 6 vinyl exclusive tracks. A compilation of tracks previously released on CD, new collaborations and a fresh remix! Analogue sounding house and techno tracks from MCDE himself, Hundred 20, Creative Swing Alliance and a remix by John Roberts. Nice versatile package.
