Langenberg – The Finisher [DES112]

Dessous Recordings get their hands on the sumptuous release The Finisher. Informed and influenced by the classic Detroit sound, Langenberg produces yet another exceptional transmission. The title track is a smooth like liquid gold, yet contains a dub-tinged techno edge reminiscent of Langenberg’s Ribn project with Manuel Tur. The soulful piano interplay is pure Detroit meets Essen, and combines to produce one of the year’s standout moments.Next up is Wait State, a bouncing groove featuring Langenberg’s trademark crisp drums and percussion, and a fantastic revolutionary vocal sample.Sun and Sorrow is on a more driving tip, but maintains a familiar minor key motor city deepness. Also present here as a digital bonus is Sun and Sorrow Dub, an essential rework and a dub-wise dancefloor excursion for the heads.

Jacob Korn on Mild Pitch camp, with a raw intense track that slowly builds and keeps the tension high. Remixes by Manuel Tur and Langenberg who both deliver some great mixes both giving their own twist to the deep original track.

Ribn – Light Black [MILD006]

The title track is a mesmerizing house/techno hybrid of colorful darkness, reminiscent of classic early RIBN releases. Meandering synths and hypnotic sounds fragment and crawl around a stomping beat with the bass moving things forward irresistibly.
