Matt O’Brien – Bloom [OK006]
New release from Matt O’Brien on his own Off-key Industries. ‘Bloom’ lays it smooth and stealthy, riding fat, subs-driven rhythm daubed with fluttering Teutonic synth into a subtly show-stealing breakdown and back to business. On the flip side, ‘Without Warning’ has body-slydin’, mentasm style synth licks and droning pads.

VA – The Dust Off Volume 3 [OKLTD004]
First up is ‘Sepia’, a collaboration between Matt O’Brien and Audiostatic, who deliver a low slung, head nodding, 120 bpm dubbed out house monster. Recorded over 8 years ago, this track has a timeless quality which makes it just as relevant today. Minor Planets kick off the B side with skeletal electro of ‘Constructor’ – heavy sub bass underpins a clanking beat while muted reverberated melodies bubble up to the surface. Rounding off this EP is ‘3dub’ by Kimble, a blissed out piece of ethereal lo-fi electronica.

Peter Van Hoesen & Donato Dozzy – Talis / Into The Red [CURLE024]
After Thomas Brinkmann’s first new EP since long, it’s now time for the second Curle offering of 2010. Donato Dozzy has been a long time favorite of us, with his unique hypnotic sound, that you can hear on his releases for labels such as Orange Groove, Elettronica Romana and Aquaplano. In our humble opinion he’s one of the best Italian techno artists around. Peter Van Hoesen on the other hand has been a long time friend of us, being also from Brussels, the home of Curle. He is one of the artists that will certainly have his big breakthrough during 2010, with the upcoming release of his debut album.
