after his recent excursion remixing groove armada, morton sorenson returns to the fold with a stunning little release for tirk titled >the burn down ep.< for those that dont know, morten is in his early twenties and hails from a small fishing village in rural norway. his dad probably spent many years in new york and the records that he brought back encouraged a love of american house and disco on the impressionable morton. >burn down (original)’ is an exercise in uplifting, stripped back house music. less is more here, the vibe stays rich and never loosens its grip. the rhythms skip on top of the beat and the vocal interludes make for a real vivid experience. the lpz remix on the other hand sits back a bit, the rhythms are solidly swung and the vocal appears more affluently in the mix. it feels smooth and definitely cool. to top the package, were served up some chi-town flavours with <owe that 2 u.< sustained strings and a slo-mo shuffle builds, then peels away to a hollowed out organ breakdown. a hauntingly affected vocal and clever edits ensue then drop back into the beat, articulated now by the clack of a tough stacatto synth. in our eyes, a brilliant end to a fantastic package

music always played a significant role in the life of javier viudez and rainer serrat and the quest for the music made them leave their hometowns mallorca and barcelona and move to london where they met each other and started sharing a studio in 2004. constant flow of releases on labels like serialism, safari electronique, vinyl club and serious club gigs followed. here javier and rainer kick off a new chapter and team up for 4 tracks, tales of lost memories and other-worldiness of early morning hours, that were some of the best kept secrets of loco dice sets this summer. the repetitive title track “scusas” with its hypnotic, scale wandering staccato bassline, >rainer nostalgia< with its uplifting vocal shouts, the timberlake infected, driving >nuevo cedar< or any other piece of this collection, these boys seem to have a golden hand for stripped down grooves
