As a trusted source of high-grade leftfield analogue electronics, the Tabernacle label is at it again with the shimmering wares of Paul Mitchell. An Expedition explores various approaches to ambient and beatless compositions through decaying synthesisers, and it’s quite astounding just how well realised these pieces are. Moving ever forwards with a dynamism that seems suited to soundtrack work, the complexity and accomplishment of all four tracks of mournful machine soul is undeniable. From lingering pads to expressive arpeggios, this EP runs the gamut of engrossing classical electronica, all the while keeping you hooked on where the instrumental tale will head next.

Meschi – Rural Transmissions [BOE018]

Boe presents one of the UK’s rising stars on the underground house music scene in Meschi. Meschi is also famed for his live analogue jam sets full of action and improvisation. The opening track “Walker” is a modern industrial piece, drenched in cavernous reverb and cushioned by rich bass frequencies. “Long Days” is a pumping Chicago techno cut with a smooth but punchy 808 kick and gritty fuzzy bass filling up that lower spectrum. Snappy hi hats and claps, melodic pads and strings fill up those emotive sequences taking the listener back to late 80s Chicago and loving every second. “The Ghost (vinyl only)” is a quality DJ cut in the Chicago vibe with a bouncing square bass and tight 707 percussion.

Snuff Trax 007 brings four special trips. Created by two great artists from England and Germany. Jackee is a project of Paul Mitchell, who you also might know as Meschi. For his debut on Snuff Trax he drops two hot acid cuts. ‘A Tribute’ is an anthem with its huge acidline and its incredible melody. ‘Seeking Space’ makes you fly endlessly through the cosmos, an emotional and deep piece of music, created for the very special moments. The second artist on the release is Elec Pt.1 aka Andreas Gehm, with two new mesmerizing tracks that do not need a 303 to work like acid. ‘Galactic Journey’ and ‘Jack Xpress’ will fascinate you with their magic melodies and grooves.
