dark city ensemble - the collaborative effort of chris gray and darand land. best known for their sought-after works on the cult label deep4life, present four recovered tracks from the archives. all material contained in this 12” was originally produced during the d4l/sound principle era and possesses the emotive overtones that captured the minds of that special period.

fresh off the heels of the success of their ‘waiting ground’ ep, the boys in black, frank & tony, are skating back onto the scene with another four track summer stomper, ‘under the jaguar sun’. the a-side starts things off with the titular track, a rollicking deep house number primed for sunset raves. a bouncing and lush bass line is the back bone of the track, as crisp hi-hats, distant, yearning pads, and shimmering bells propel dancers forward into eyes closed euphoria. things ramp up quickly into peak-time ecstasy on the breakaway edit of solo andata’s “a ballet of hands.” a whirling dervish of delicate music boxes, bowed guitars, delicate music boxes, and distant horns swirl around and weave in and out between a skipping drum pattern, pushing and pulling alongside a gruff and stuttering bass, perfect for those late night rooftop ventures.

frank booker is back down in the basement for the 3rd release on his hot new vinyl only imprint. the main man himself delivers the a side cut, which is a classic booker style disco jam. by now standard booker ingredients are served - super tight drums, funky bass, big strings, joyous horns, a wild piano riff - and the whole affair climaxes with a joyous vocal hook. irresistible stuff! on the flip side, frank s compadre dicky trisco drops another serious disco weapon that is guaranteed to kick-start any party with its chunky, funk-inspired sound. absolutely ready to tear up the dance floor at any moment, it is again the keys that really seal the deal here. both tracks have 100% got the funk and have been lovingly mastered for this limited edition 10 inch vinyl release. making this yet another stellar release on the down in the basement label - as you would expect!

for the opening ep from too many squares, frank butters manages to gene-splice together the raw dna from all of the ugly-beautiful sounds present in the birth of modern dance music. -conditioning for solitude- is the hum of dark tubes, the slice and hiss of sharp synthesised percussion and the scream of blissful dementia. the mutant that existed for a brief and joyous frozen moment while disco was still birthing house. -body burn” is the tropics with a black sun and africanism with a stopwatch instead of a heart. recalling experimentalist forays by the likes of liaisons dangereuses, patrick cowley and karen finley, the 2 originals on offer manage to recall the raw passion of an era without feeling contrived or derivative. the ep is rounded off by sheila fleurraters remix of * 3 minute warning* which continues the pioneer-ist motif, albeit allying itself with a much more early industrial aesthetic.

2016 is suppose to see 2 more release from bordel ensemble, with new talent and world to discover
london based imprint bordel ensemble (limited series only) is back after one year with yet another ep by lodee gruv, alias of one of the label’s founder. the second release is stamped 003 as the bordel002 will be a compilation of music by all the artists of the label coming out later in 2016. two side / three tracks ep. on side a, lodee gruv confirms once again his style with an atmospheric raw and floor friendly 8 minutes rhythm . on side b he takes it up a notch with 95% analog generated drums and baseline groove toped by a progression of 3 notes sample melody leading to an slightly emotional pattern. the second track of side b is a lodee gruv signature, deeper and tripier somehow with samples twicked into different elements backed up by a gimmick changing low end drums. definitely a journey into lodee gruv’s mind and bordel ensemble spirit.
