and so especial comes to its 30th release. as with the ees010 and ees020 the 12inch is given over as a sampler ep of alternate versions, dubs and unreleased cuts that deserve their time in the spotlight. again featuring a labels whos who, with fairplay, paton and baha appearing, but also new crews in vogue with roy of the ravers back, joined by the esteemed freeform five plus a debut from bal5000.

as well as manning his own label duro, theus mago can be found slinging out heat on turbo, kill the dj and more recently ombra. the mexican producer returns to home turf for his latest transmission, serving up one original track with two killer remixes. -inertials- is a rowdy beast in its original form, tapping up a breakbeat roll, dirty wave synth stabs and plenty more sonic debris for a cut that spans a whole lot of styles and makes them gel together seamlessly. inigo vontier takes the original and makes it into a bone-rattling drum track to batter the crowd into submission very late on in the dance. jamie paton takes a different approach on the b-side, weaving a little tenderness into the mix with some elegant synth lines that offset the raw bite of the drums beautifully.

jamie paton has been a regular fixture on emotional especial since the label first came to light, conjuring up a seductive blend of leftfield dance music with a broad range of influences. this time around he s turning out some of his remixes, leading in with the sweaty, dense throb of sexy merlins see you in the dark. guy schlaloms habibi by way of contrast becomes a lighter confection peppered with bubbly synth lines and an almost poppy persuasion. blancmanges feel me has a more cosmic lilt in its voluminous tones, and overdrive by gatos negros drifts out on an off-kilter kind of boogie for all manner of deviant dancers to get head-nodding to.

jamie paton, one half of the duo cage and aviary has in interviews expressed his thoughts about if slouchy techno can be viewed as an own genre. the answer lies in this 7” - “telefuture / blind summit” - released on hoga nord rekords, on which the label above is highly appropriate to sum up the sound. the tracks contain elements from your techno favorites dating three decades back, but the tempo and the production creates a slouchy (in the words most positive sense) feeling clearly influenced by the slow motion house of cage and aviary.

the kachiri remix ep features a varied selection from some of the finest. kicking off with tronik youth who takes the title track and reboots into a harder darker groove, pushing the synths to breaking point. man power ignites a fire on the dancefloor with real bass and spacey chords. ivan smagghe creates an off kilter eclectic groove with a different energy. jamie patton dubs out pink ghost with a twisted and warped groove that takes it to a new cosmos. whilst, kasper bjorke takes us down to the sea with his love vibes and tropical rework of volupia. craig bratley adds his dark synths and toughened grooves for late night dance floors. two mamarrachos lead us on an epic 11 minute journey with their massive pink ghost funk groove.

with the bizarre feeling ep laying the sound for the subsequent fist year of the label, it is right jamie returns with ep#2 to move things forward with another twisted take on his unique mutoid-protoid-machine-funk-groove. starting with mad obsession you would be forgiven for thinking you ll have bizarre feeling part 2, with warped vocals - taken from late night, half asleep scribbled notes - and space echo haze, but let the percussion work-out trip you up and the stars in and before you know it things start going leftfild and then deeper with the free party sound system bass line shuffl of time nearly time. what he is on (about), no one knows. it is on the flp however that things take a darker turn. beyond the confession booth, down sharp stairs and dripping ceiling to a red light lit room of latter day late night blues.

emotional especial is the new label from the emotional recordings stable. a sub label to emotional response, especial is though squarely aimed at the floor rather than the head. in a similar vain to the limited 4 eps-only label that was emotional relish, it will merge the sounds and styles that influence contemporary electronic producers, taking in new wave, new beat, ebm and proto-house to create something modern. jamie paton of cage & aviary helms the debut release with bizarre feeling. a youth soaking up punk, dub and new wave, the ep acts at times as a homage to the sounds of new order, the the, kraftwerk and the then other-wordly machine funk emanating out of mid-80s chicago. with both timothy j fairplay and scott fraser aiding and abetting down in the scrutton street bunker studio, with keys, guitar and a heavy dose of space echo, plus hypnotic fx laden vocals from jamie himself, all propel the ep beyond pastische and make the perfect start to especial.
