Instra:mental / Boddika – Vicodin (Skudge Remix) / Grand Prix [NL010]
New arrival from the [Naked Lunch] camp indelibly stamped with the production Boddika up against a Skudge refix of some vintage Instra:mental heat. “Grand Prix” arises with a cavernous subby bounce, the track is soon invaded by onrushing hi’s and kicks before swerving into a downward spiral of bass and rave stabs. A former [Naked Lunch] glory in “Vicodin” is revisited by Skudge, transforming the frosted atmospherics of Instra:mental’s original into a constantly brooding 4am wall rattler.
Cajun Hardt – Untitled 1 & 2 [REF001]
Lushly finished, almost pastoral Techno grooves from the unknown quantity, Cajun Hardt. One side is more moody, the other sweetly melancholy, but both with super crisp, twirling synthline and unusual, Latinized drum programming.

D’Marc Cantu – How Are We Doing? EP [MOSDEEP008]
Next up in the 10” series on MOS_deep another heavy 2-tracker of D’Marc Cantu, which will be followed by a (mini)-album later this year. The opening track is a fierce Chicago-styled banger kicking off with an extremely solid and frantic bassline while D’Marc’s low-pitched voice asks us “How Are We Doing?”. “A Second Earth” is a laid-back and emotional retro-futuristic techno track overflowing with sadness and melancholy, echoing the sounds of the artificial-intelligence era.

Gonno – Acdise #2 [IFFM001]
With shades of the joyous melodic soundscapes, ‘ACDise #2’ holds you in a hypnotic malestrom, as the lush, warped strings climb higher and higher, surrounding you with their beauty and intensity, pushing you ever closer to the eye of the storm, before it shatters into the brilliant light of a thousand crystalline pieces. The EP comes with a stripped down acid-cussive version from Swedish Techno machines Skudge and another storming remix from Gatto Fritto and a beautiful ambient track ‘Turn to Light’.
