hot on the heels of bmm 002 comes the latest instalment of the birdsmakingmachine series – bmm 003 – a package combining their signature sine-bass laden grooves, steel drums and oblique melodies. >antonios swing<, as the title indicates, literally swings listeners into its rhythm with dark vocal snippets layered onto soft stabs and eerie melodies. >woodpeckers<, on the a2, takes a more linear approach, an effective dj-friendly tool that will please dancefloors in the late hours of the night/early hours of the morning. on the flip, in >silk road< we find a captivating, yet mysteriously funky minimal house affair that builds and builds until finally erupting following the break. the ep is rounded-off with >dead lines<, a broken themed galloping of bass kicks fused into moody melodies and reverberated far cries, resembling a genuine excavation into the depths of house music – another example that the birds are always trying to redefine the genres boundaries.

the a1, named after the release title, is a summer techno drive, or a ride through a hot landscape in central america, as the notes of marimba suggest. the subtle but crackling low toms reverb dictates the driving tempo, while the chasing hats warn of a night which is likely to be dirty and sweaty. ready 2 glow opens with an enlightening synth note softly spreading through the air. its the after-hour call, the quietness before a new storm, which is about to boost and bring to surface the spastic contradictions of the drug-based soul liberating after-hour scene. corners goes funk, the quirky and rugged bass line lays at the core of the groove. above, we hear a multitude of spooky sounds and samples ranging from flying saucer sonic surges to playful stabs and bongo madness. the obsessive vocal echo, manipulated according to the abuse of ifferent drugs, is a clear indication of that. alza pure quanto vuoi is almost taken as it was firstly conceived during a jamming session. its twisted, swinging, it breaks the scheme of groove flowing as the tempo suddenly escapes to a faster pitch, jacked out

neville watson ends 2013, the year in which he released his debut album for creme organization, with a club-focussed 12 inch and the second in the dba special editions series. since remixing dba003, and thereby providing one of the most requested tracks in the labels history, it has only been a matter of time before the legendary uk producer joined the dba camp for a full 12 inch release. in keeping with the remit of the special editions sub-label, all three tracks are aimed squarely at the dancefloor, but relative to previous neville watson releases they tread a significantly more techno line, from the fused circuitry of crossing the is to the deeper strains of hot & heavy, and the twisted bassline assault of wired.
