after debuting on rebirth with their new alias easy to remember (inspired by the famous song from st germain of the same name) niro and elia perrone release now on their own unclear label. the ep contains two originals backed by three remixes.royal rumbles obscure synth melody and obsessive pitch changes pave the way to sinister background noises and beats, whereas jazz cowboys free style drumming, syncopated rhythm and xylophones blur the line between house music and free improvisation. minimonos remix of royal rumble brings the kick drum to the fore and adds a staccato bass line coupled with some stop & gos that spice up the vibe of the track. giulio etiopes rendition of jazz cowboys adds some deep pads, flute sounds and a trumpet sample leading into a dreamy break, with def safaris dark rework turning it instead into a galloping percussive tool.

ltd to 300 copies... for its eagerly awaited 11th release, unclear records present giulio etiope feat. giak & hester. the riverside ep sees the klang club residents deliver 3 super stylish tracks backed by a manic remix by gerry read, a mind blowing musical experience that stands out once more as a true masterpiece on the labels catalogue. title track * riversides* classy piano chords and kaleidoscopic mood bring up colourful visions, while the gerry read remixs staccato groove and improvisational stop & go swings are purely jazz inspired, surrounded by free flowing sounds and a pounding speedy beat. * summertime* is built around a steady tom-and-shaker groove, with atmospheric vocals and dreamy pad melodies, while * e15 2rg* is introspective and dark, its aqueous percussions slinking off with time stretch effects.

berlin-based obstacle records returns for its second release with another ep that draws on uk garage heritage while offering its own fresh take via a trio of newer names to watch out for.the ep’s original track comes from lesus - a hitherto unknown name that splices its stripped down ghost-esque rhythmic backbone with an uneasy chiming melody. the a2’s remix from obi - another name to keep track of - retains the pace & 2step stylings of the original while combining it with a chicago house sensibility.on the b side we find two alternate versions from the mysterious prince of ethiopia. the 808 version mutates the track into a old school hip hop instrumental, with the aforementioned 808 sounds to the fore, replete with vocal sampels, record scratches and ray guns. the mt40 version takes those elements, loses the snarling bassline, and pins it all to a broken beat rhythm, once again underlining obstacle’s reverence for uk dance music culture & its desire to push it into surprising new territory.
