we are new york bound for the second release from rex music, as we invite the charismatic boss of soul people music, fred p-aka black jazz consortium to bring us an exquisite ep, which holds true to his persona: elegant, deep and refined. like the chronology of a day, evolving from dawn to dusk, fred p takes us on a journey through three well-crafted tracks to compose an intimate ballad. ‘wave patterns’ sets the tone with a smooth, airy atmosphere – minimalist yet progressive, it will have you enraptured as the subtle pads weave in and out of the background, dancing a pirouette with the low end. the dubby, hypnotic ripple of the bass ushers in a bright glow like sunrise at the beginning of a glorious day...from there, we move on to side b where ‘continuous sensation’ accompanies us until sunset. soothing and playful, with a delightful string riff and mellow, warm bassline, it’s full of the joys of the daytime. finally, fred p closes out the ep with a harder, more angular workout. ‘unbroken circles’ is made for the twilight hours, when the sun has set and we’re wrapped up in a warm, dense evening. simple, mysterious and crisp… a great way to finish up an outstanding ep from our man, fred p

for finitude music s 5th release, label owner marcel heese and alexander kowalski aka d_func. share their visions on thought control. both tracks on the ep harbour the same intent, but each of them approaches it in a different way. d_func. s take revolves around sahko-like bleeps, if you are into early mika vainio or sleeparchive, look no further! but instead of being loopy, it s definitely a builder. its original trance track-like structure is sure to rock many an underground dancefloor. marcel s vision is slower and less straight-forward but creates and maintains a high tension. based on dense a bassline and intricate soundscapes, it builds up slowly, only to explode halfway through. an extra payoff also comes at the very end of a track, its noise/ambient outro making a perfect way to wrap up an amazing party at 8am somewhere deep in the heart of berlin.

straight out of the ukraine comes io (mulen) aka aleksandr voznichenko, a man whose back catalogue includes releases on labels such as rejected, eklectisch and area remote to name but a few. now he links up with one of paris’ premier labels, run by one of paris’ premier crews – apollonia. with one solid track and a classy remix from danish young gun malin génie, this is another surefire winner from apollonia. ‘to the unknown’ kicks things off with a steady build up. shrouded in a hazy mist it draws you to its understated groove, io turns in a very considered production that evolves at a slow yet utterly gripping pace. the energy levels rise like the tide of the ocean, engulfing you before you know it. io’s dexterity and cunning ability to keep the listener engaged manifests itself here, bomb! on the flip side, malin genie steps in to give ‘to the unknown’ a new lick of paint and what we get is a jazzy, minimal rework with a jaunty skip in its step and a wicked bassline.
