meet desto. we found him wandering the streets of helsinki, eating canned tuna and drinking the water from a tin of hot dogs, desperately clutching armfuls of sticky future garage. starting off in spacey 2step rhythms, falling over bassline, and breaking down into an euphoric 8 bit cascade, the epic >disappearing reappearing ink< finally reaches wax after being in the boxes of pretty much everybody all year. on the flip, >broken memory< was given its first exclusive airing by oneman on radio 1 to much acclaim, and takes more of a straight up approach, and retains all of the fluid c64 chiptune beauty.

sometimes things get complicated and a groove becomes a symphony. but sometimes, all we need is the groove. venturing back to how it all started, octave one begins a new chapter, 20 years after their introduction to the electronic music world. connecting to their origins on derrick mays legendary label, octave one pay homage to their transmat catalog number with the launch of a new limited series and label, ms10. returning to basics, ms10 brings the burden brothers home to how they started it all, minus the hype and >back to the essence of the groove<. this special series begins march 2010...

the one-two kick drum beat that starts “in the dark of the night” functions as a bit of a tease. instead of merely establishing the languid pace of the track, it has the power of suggestion, and its stark nakedness raises the question of what will happen after the music fully launches. a few seconds later, a punch-drunk, flanging keyboard is the first clue that the listener is in for an off-kilter ride, the sauntering bassline that next appears adds a springy, funk bounce. but it’s the tripped-out, multi-tracked vocals of fernando miranda rios, aka michoacan, the producer behind this slow reveal, that give the song its peculiar, space-yvibe. it’s like david byrne with funk aspirations and a vaguely cosmic feel. the b-side remix, courtesy of italy’s clap rules, feels like more of a re-build. the song has been taken apart and put back together with brand new parts. instead of more relaxed, dazed funk at the core, it’s a glittery, disco-ball splattered track with glossy keys all around.
