music is about passion, not competition. in this spirit the something vinyl series continues again with another stl record in his diy do-what-you-wanna-do style, including 3 house tracks aswell as a astro-science thrilling farspace interlude and loop introductions. the ascetic elements on this ep are the result of an isolated one man musical universe, where the love and passion for sound research is perhaps the strongest driving force behind the machines output. a bit of squelchy mircowave-acid, some sunny analog sequences and someting that seems to come out of a lovely b-movie track, where humanoids moving death proof onto the dancefloor feeling addicted to the groove. something 18 is probably that kind of vinyl which can be enjoyed the most when the time has come to loose yourself and let things flow into the positive. this 12 inch comes in limited quantities of 500 copies and is dedicated to all believers of the something vibe.

emptyset is a bristol based production project formed by james ginzburg, aka ginz, boss of the multiverse network of labels and paul purgas a longstanding electronic dj/collector and curator of this years we can elude control compilation. their collective agenda has been exploring techno music’s diverse influences and compiling them to a studio template focused on tight production and detailed sound design. inspired by the city’s culture of bass lead production as well as the global resurgence of electronic music, the sound has been described as techno meets dubstep folded back onto techno again, a description which is perhaps the most insightful to date. the project owes credit to the classic releases of m-plant, sahko and chain reaction as well as more recent producers such as alva noto, deathprod and burial. emptyset acts as a research project connecting the ideas of a modern dancefloor with experimental approaches to music and its design.

low-end blessed, heavyweight dub techno piece from the top drawer of a rather well known, but perhaps deliberately shy producer. hand stamped and individually sealed in a simple yet rather beautiful fashion, this is arresting steppers business, no doubt. the cut, performed with all the soul and depth you expect from dubplates & mastering, is super loud and as heavy as required for all man-sized playing out needs. observed through the vapour trails of the downbeat side to basic channel, the advanced sound system research of chain reaction and echospaces afterswell - consider this as something of a two-movement love letter to august berlin rhythm chambers - heavily aromatic, opiated but still trudging rhythm and grace - enveloping bass, heady atmosphere, excellent
