als waschechter untergrund-sommerhit aus dem jahre 2007 war simon bakers plastik einfach der richtige beat zur richtigen zeit - ein täuschend einfach gestrickter track der sich auf rauen groove und ein verwundenes synth-riff konzentrierte, fernab der paradoxen begeisterung der minimalen Ära für exzessives sound-design. im schnellvorlauf ins jahr 2014 gesprungen, verspürt die welt einmal mehr das drängende verlangen nach einem soilden schieber - eine gute gelegenheit dieses neu gemasterte juwel einer neuen tänzergeneration in die schuhe zu schieben.

mit >the ghost in daylight<, einem bewegenden und intensiven werk aus traurigen gitarrenklängen und schauererregenden vocals, beendet gravenhurst fast fünf jahre stille. das neue album ist ein düsterer, atmosphärischer ort, beschwörend besungen mit unterschiedlichsten mitteln. gravenhursts musikverständnis wurzelt im melodiösen noise von my bloody valentine, den beeindruckenden vokalhamonien von simon & garfunkel, den alchemistischen gitarren von richard thompson und johnny marr, und den weitsichtigen ambientvisionen von brian eno, perfekt ausgedrückt in zehn wundervollen songs, darunter der ersten auskopplung >the prize<.<br >inklusive code für mp3-download des albums.

simon bakers debut album traces saw the london based producer record a superb, honest reflection of his influences and took his deep house sound into a long playing format that was critically acclaimed across the board. let me in was one of two tracks that featured vocals from debukas that were highlights of the album, and it returns in original album version and with an excellent remix from lee curtiss. lee curtiss is currently riding high after great releases on spectral sound and get physical, an excellent cd compilation for watergate and as part of the visionquest collective. his version is a remix in the truest form, he treats the original with respect, but twists and turns it very much into his own track, perfectly fine tuned for club sets and soundsystems. this combined with the awesome original provides another essential simon baker and 2020vision collaboration

following his successful >tears in vain 12inch< on perspectiv, promising new producer simon garcia continues his quest for the holy-grail of modern house and techno as we set forth into >cavern<. and indeed >cavern< is a breathtaking ride - a warm pulsating synth pattern is coaxed along by a dusty, filtered kick before we are greeted with rushing bright percussion and a thunderous lead kick. wild fx open up the floor with the first ecstatic break and from there on the track runs with a mind of its own, exploding with rapturous drama and tasteful restraint. bringing us back down to earth at least for a moment. ‚bass ii bass‘ treads more swinging, groovy territories in a classic ny styled house track, updated for 2012. freaky, pitching vocals swirl around a tight bass-led rhythm section, telling a futuristic story of hopeless hedonism. the emotive-piano house vibes of ‚options‘ will likely raise a few tingling hairs for those well acquainted with steve bug‘s recent dj sets. the perfect blinded-by-the-morning-sun moment, mr. garcia really shows of his classy production skills with this slinky, moody slice of classic house.

phuture shock musik present their 5th release, this time procuring the reliable talent of one of the most slept on producers in the world of bass music - that is simon/off. those in the know will be aware that the austrian native has been simmering in the underground for quite some time now, having laid the groundwork through early releases on haunted audio, a noteworthy ep for immerse records, and further contributions to several other smaller labels. this latest plate by the name of >planetary communication< ep finds simon/off leaning more towards his techno and broken beat side, which has of late began to flourish in his recent productions, and consists of three well crafted afro-tech riddims oozing weighty low-end frequencies, funky drum work and finely detailed percussion. widespread support on sub fm, and increasing support from several other major players in the underground bass scene.

>and i heard a strange deep sound. as i got closer to that particular place, the music took a more stable form…i thought i already knew this sound from somewhere<… welcome to the musical world of exciting new amsterdam based producer simon weiss. coming over all early theo and moodymann-esqe, he clearly demonstrates a passion for all things detroit in terms of mood, melody, rhythm and texture. half bouncing feet, sweaty walls and concrete floors, half sophisticated, futuristic movie soundtrack score …simon weiss fits the description of a home taper absolutely perfectly. dance to it, close your eyes to it, but whatever you do listen to it. 100% house music with bits. play it all night long!!

the original track features on the compilation balance mixed by deetron coming in november. spanish producer simon garcia has already impressed with his ability to move effortlessly from techier sounds to the deeper reaches of house music. a talent that has brought him the opportunity of releasing his work on labels such quartz music, composite, supplement facts, nrk and now, perspectiv. >tears in vain< was an instant favourite with perspectiv boss ripperton. throughly road-tested, it was snapped up for the label and is brought to you today backed by a stunning remix from his fellow countryman, deetron. simons original is deep yet progressively driving. matching rising jets and beautiful vocal with a background of wild horns and handclaps. deetron continues to tread the heavenly path that so few can walk, turning in yet another masterful piece. staying true to the original, he adds elegant and classic touches. most pointedly the synth-bathed break, rasping hats and warm oldschool baseline.

dutch dj and producer drops this killer house single on australias deepermotions music. this 12 inch features remixes by rick wade and steve ward alongside the excellent original mix and the cut > so what<. deep and melodic and catchy as hell. dont sleep on this! highly recommended.
