Bleak – Disfunktion EP [DRH039]

Cover art - Bleak: Disfunktion EP

The second Bleak release on Deeply Rooted House. DJ Deep: “I have been very impressed with Bleak’s talent and how he can combine different styles of techno and still produce very personal music. Each track, in my opinion, has a life of it’s own, it starts in a certain way, and takes you to different places. The arrangements are very subtle, sometimes hypnotic, very intense and emotional, the way the drums evolve and drive the tracks, or how deep chords apear in the back ground taking the track to a differrent territory etc. I hope you’ll like this 12” as much as I do!’

D’Marc Cantu – A New World [MOSLP001]

D'MARC CANTU - A New World

Not long after his debut full length, Michigan resident D’Marc Cantu serves up his next album on the ever-excellent MOS Recordings. Though essentially a house and techno producer, American Cantu often goes further than most, calling on a world of influences to ensure his jacking productions are as far away from standard as possible, yet still do damage on the right dancefloors as have previous EPs on this label, Nation and Crème Organization. His latest offering, A New World, aims to capture, detail and relay many different stories from within the re-born city of Detroit. Across the course of eight tracks, many different moods and styles are explored from dark and abstract to more synth lead and serene. There are plenty of squelchy acid lines and frantic percussive workouts, but so too are there pockets of slower, deeper, dubbier introspection that speak of mystery and intrigue as does the city of Detroit itself.
