pure hypnotic dope ! the 12inch opens with a blast of superlative dancefloor funk, >u can get sonar<. its immediately obvious that this track is the creation of someone who knows - as a fan, dj, record-seller and musician - what works on the dancefloor, what sounds good, and has endeavoured to make his record satisfy us on all counts. carried along by an unbelievably buoyant bassline, purring, deep house-style chords and crystalline percussion, the track climaxes in waves of synthesized strings. >upad aah< is a vivacious, skippy dancefloor track, its constituent bass and drum elements rounded and smoothed for maximum bounce, sharp, pressurized snares provide a glorious counterpoint, as quasi-tribal percussion, and airy african female vocals are layered over the top. the result is fresh, powerful and eminently danceable. >persuasion< is a deep, swinging club track. once again that warm bass is at the forefront, with clipped yet languid chords building melody around it as

andrés first release for simple records >wanna feel< is all about the resonant, hypnotic bassline that steadily opens out to reveal more layers of harmony. little sounds and licks of melody dance around the bass whilst strings and stabs build the hook into one big crescendo. brooks melancholic strings, cleverly cut up the bassline and an eerie soundscape pushes the vibe of the original into a darker more sinister techno place….this is the lights out, heads down, touch me in the dark kind of groove that we love! finally >move< is an absorbing and patient deep house gem. plunging into a backdrop of prodded keys that subtly shift in shape and tone, a central synth melody climbs to euphoric climax before retiring back to waves of throbbing bass and rolling percussive loops

off-key limited is a new subsidiary label of off-key industries whose aim is to give exposure to new artists alongside established producers and to bring a wider range of genres with less of a focus on the dancefloor. each release will be strictly limited and will not be repressed. we start by raiding the off-key vaults to unleash a series of releases entitled >the dust off<, featuring material written in the off-key studio over the years by matt o brien and various collaborators and associates. matt kicks off the ep with >a new page turns<, a bangin dubby detroit techhouse cut driven by a low slung rhythm and analog stabs dripping in reverb, overlayed with a melodica riff which calls to mind the smokey refrains of augustus pablo. next up is >untitled< by newcomer mat gates, a beatless slice of electronica whose understated melodies conjure up thoughts of late summer evenings of times gone by. on the flip, o brien and gates combine under the artist name kimble to bring you >epiphany<, led by a shimmering melody underpinned with haunting strings which combine to form an electro track of rare beauty. this diverse ep is completed with mat gates second contribution, >in a hole<, a drum n bass track with a disjointed, skeletal rhythm, sub bass drops and fragile, melancholy melody.
