nice price deal !!! andnotors fourth vinyl release sees rubadubs very own line idle laying down a hefty techno workout, which combines analogue crispness with distorted synths and a brooding vocal for maximum dancefloor devastation. mixing land cruising-era melodic bounce with a dirty electronic throb, tense slowly builds to a crescendo as the vocals rise up through the mix until the hook kicks in and it all gets messy. on the flipside, nu42Æs acid remix does exactly what it says on the tin, arpeggiating the synths, adding a healthy dose of squelch and fracturing the vocals to make a much more grinding long-player. whilst the original is a peak-time techno beast, the flip is pure warehouse material, nine-minutes of slowly-evolving drops and breakdowns designed for an early hours of the morning after-party. tense is andnotors fourth vinyl, after limited-edition releases from cledus snow, tj kong and aleksandr jurczyk, and each copy comes individually hand-stencilled. previous releases have gained them a substantial following from djs like tom middleton, kenny larkin, mark bell (lfo), mark moore (s express) and erwin van moll.

support comes from tiga, jedi knight tom middleton, dj naughty, warren fellow, makossa & megablast. the track >disconnected< is a groovy house workout that is typical of mr van moll. it starts with an excellent rhythm track that hooks you in straight away and then drops a deep, rich bass reminiscent of some of the classic house records from eindhoven produced in the mid 90s. this is quickly followed up with a breathy, seductive female vocal that leads you into the synth parts that propel you throughout the rest of the track until the 303 drops at the end. on the flip the track is reworked into a much darker affair with the 303 playing a central role from the beginning. >disco necked it< builds slowly with dubby synths gradually joining the 303 and throbbing bass before a filtered string part straight outta detroit creeps in creating a late night thriller thats sure to have sweaty bodies grooving!

the fourth release on anfnotor features yet more top-drawer electronic emissions from cledus snow and aleksandr jurczyk two individuals based in glasgow. their sound is of late nights in clubs and early mornings under the sky with the party scene of glasgow evident in various distinct ways. cledus snow is the latest project from callum campbell, who has risen from the sound of the late 80s and early 90s heavily influenced by machines such as the dx7, and musically by the tones and textures produced by detroit, eindhoven and london. since moving back to glasgow aleksandr has been involved in new musical projects and has started to carve a niche with his unique electronic sound. his latest offering sees him assault the dancefloor with an italo bassline fuelled late night thumper. so far this 12 has received praise from mark bell aka lfo, erwin van moll aka max 404, $tinkworx, kenny larkin and kurt baggaley aka scape one
