phat rockin party smasher

after the success of the beautiful and sultry ‚move with me‘ on poker flat 97, alongside patrick chardronnet‘s blissfully deep ‚days like these‘, david durango is back with three mesmerising tracks on dessous. like a dark, empty night made warm by the pure, reviving light of day, ‚striptease‘ is an epic tale of love and resolution. skipping, light percussion flourishes are joined by memorable chord phases that wash through and over the senses. a tender and sincere detroit style breakdown is then skillfully danced out with teasing, climactic moments of tension. ‚human‘ is by comparison a lighter journey, as durango trusts his rhythmic instincts and pulls out some fresh and airy hypnotising synth stutters and a rich palette of spacious percussion. neo-chicago stlye, ‚japanese revenge‘ is a faster paced deep-down groover that works chugging organ stabs and jacking beats along with glorious room-filling bending synth glides. it‘s a versatile track that sums up durango‘s unmistakable talent for creating an atmosphere and a celebratory, old-school vs new school vibe. durango‘s skilled, un-rushed style is the key here, and leads to three very unique dancefloor excursions, each with their own directions, moods and tingling electronic atmospheres.

great vocal house release which reminds of studio apartment or thaisoul. for the likes of hed kandi, purple and defected. incl. tea party mix, tol guitar ensemble mix.

melbournes d t3ch gives his own interpretation of wildly jacking house music in the classic chicago style.

zero cash is back, served in slices! dont say what you think comes at you with two different versions, both hot out the over. the main mix is straight ahead, bangin and dark for the peak hours and tends to make you very nervous. the alternate mix takes you down the dial to minimal/sci fi soundtrack land slathered over an intentionally thicker crust. both mixes are hot and heavy and not for the feint of heart. then in classic zero cash style he lightens stuff up for the b side with more than enough taking you on an electro journey remniscent of 80s cop shows and shoot em up video games. served in slices, get em while they re hot!!!

big with: josh wink, gregor tresher, agnès, jimpster, djulz, alex attias, brothers vibe, sebo k, 2020vision, 3channels, lauhaus, davide squillace, nic fianculli,... simon flower, who since his first release on curl curl left his mark with productions on poker flat, moon harbour and recently railyard, now releases his second 12 on curl curl: still here, still there. while residing a world away on the idyllic isles of new zealand, here he makes a heavy nod to the detroit of the early 90s. he mixes it with his own deep hypnotic style, resulting in a release which sounds uncoventional yet combines the multi-layered repetition of an almost timeless techno style. the key to flowers unique sound is the influence from his well-honed and organic live set, which has lead to growing bookings across europe. both parts of still here, still there match funk and dancefloor pressure, and have been integrel to his live set for years.
