yore returns with a true dream team split ep, pairing yore label head andy vaz with sistrum manager patrice scott. vaz is up first with a beautiful slice of old-school funk and soul within a deep house formula, >back to square one< that has a whole lot more in common with isaac hayes and james brown than with juan atkins or any other techno icon. accompanied by a wah-wah guitar figure and claps, a bullet-proof bass line leads a nine-minute charge thats quickly bolstered by a slinkily swinging drum groove. creamy synth chords and blazing horns intermittently spill over the pulsating mix and then vanish, leaving space for the rhythm to intensify and the track to grow ever more euphoric (and even, towards its close, a bit acidy). a true mission into both funk and house, which again showcases vazs ultimate diversity as an outstanding producer. scott titled his second sistrum release beyond deep and the title might just as easily apply to the b-side >aztecal< where the detroit producer slathers shimmering stabs and congealing streams over a thudding kick drum and flickering percussive detail. while vazs cut draws inspiration from the timeless traditions of decades past, scotts looks towards the future when its gleaming shuttle lifts off in pursuit of distant galaxies.

frankfurt based producer and dj michael stapf delivers herewith his incredible 3 tracker debut single >spiritkeeper<. after some netreleases at musicartistry records and a cooperation track with axel sohns on teknite records - this is definitely his fulminant solo start in the vinyl world. the label hymn >spiritkeeper< shouts out a message to the club scene - >we wont accept that changes are a fact of life !< >unconscious minds< is a modern tech housy vocal track - that will for sure find its way to your ears. >jingle the bell< comes up with a lot of crazyness. be aware and just keep the spirit alive!
