phreakin chicago / tech house.... feat house legend derrick carter

theres 8 million stories in the city & if you are in the know, theres a refreshing movement of bodies several stories above the manhattan street bars & clubs in secret lofts & apartments. one of these re-occurring parties & djs providing the backbone sound is sid vaga of rolands six degrees parties. after over 10 years of heavy dancefloor smashing, he gets in the studio to make some of his own sounds. side a is his original latin brazilian house signature sound filled with percussion, funky bass & the straight driving backbeats for a good party starter. side b goes a notch deeper & heavier as d*sol from paris remixes with additional electronics & moodier sounds to balance the 12 inch for early & late-night dance-floors.

mikael jonasson returns to phobiq with the mysterious

the new ep from memoria comes from fast-rising romanian producer vid whose previous outings have come on labels including fear of flying and barraca music. vid (vidum) aka sorin rastoaca is a producer obsessed with nature and organic sounds. his latest release >rebirth<, is stripped but not light on feeling, and mines a vein somewhere between deep house and minimal techno. etime is a fluttery, eerie cut that works on many subtle layers. like the feathery minimal percussion of villalobos, the romanians sounds present like flapping butterfly wings as a kick drum punches out a varied pattern below. poem is a little louder and bolder, with a firm rolling kick drum and drunken, wubby sounds running right through its core. plenty of sonic details flesh out the languorous but slightly tribal groove. rebirth is again about little tiny details and how they evolve with time, but the framework they inhabit this time is deep, late-night house with gentle tinkles on keys coming over like a fluttering candle in the dark. 3729 gets its head down and mines a shifty, itching and tight minimal groove, closing out an ep which shows vid to be a master of working minimum sounds into maximum effects.

although it has found emotional music from france, russia and south africa over the years, for this release it returns to the birthplace of deep house, chicago, to focus on up and coming producer matthew wieck. opening the ep with the wiry tones and lush pads of >flying feeling< whichs take you up into the stratosphere with its floaty vibe, its complimented by >hydroacoustics<, which utilises an aquatic arpeggio lead and warm, oozing pad underneath, held together with crips, charged percussive work. on the flipside >worlds beyond< demonstrates wiecks darker side, with an acid bassline riffing against cavernous piano in what sounds like a more introverted take on larry heard. altered moods boss malcolm moore finishes off the ep with >cleared direct<, an 808 jam held together with foggy chords and disembodied radio transmissions - the perfect compliment to wiecks fine material.

quadrant delivers a tremendous release on the citrus imprint. sinister stringlines changing into ripping basses. of course the percussion game on this one is tight.
