we finished 2015 with a six-track jumbo ep from borrowed identity and thought we d repeat the same trick for 2016, though this time with originals from okayama-based producer keita sano. eye begins with keep an eye out, pt.2, a propulsive song that sounds like a lost contender for the knight rider theme. own signal keeps things dark, but with a spartan bleakness. the side finishes with smoker, another manic cut that ll give you chills. the flip finds keita exploring brighter sounds without losing that industrial, jagged edge. trmk is essentially a beat track that ll ignite any dance floor and fix is a herky-jerky ditty that ll get you stomping around the club like a possessed reveler. the 12inches cherry on top is think twice, a funky ass-shaker that centers around a crackly sample of crowd noise, a chopped-up disco vocal, and bouncy bass. a fiery finale for this hedonistic party.

mike ash returns to super rhythm trax after providing the very first release and gives us 4 authentic and acidic warehouse smashers. mike ash may be familiar from early releases on moving shadow and rising high records under a variety of pseudonyms in the early 90s but in the last 10 years has become synonymous with releasing mind blowing and true electro under his own name. when he turns his hand to acid house, the results mirror the high quality and his no nonsense approach shines through having lived and breathed the music and culture back when it was exploding in the late 80s and early 90s. in his own words i tried to keep with the original 1988/1989 vibe. i didnt use any synths / sounds / samples that weren t available past 1990. its all juno / sh-101 / 303 / jupiter / 808 / 909 / 707 / 606 and samples from the beats breaks & scratches vol 1&2inch the tracks exude a raw and strangled soul and are a bold and comfortingly honest take on the warehouse and pirate radio sound of the uk.

sticking to its mission on digging out fresh sounds from the romanian underground, metereze proposes limpid and his antagonistic 4-tracks house journey for its 6th release.
on the deeper side of this record you’ll find 2 pieces that complement each other to perfection: uncle sens, with its simple structure on the surface level that’s more like an invitation to discover the elaborate work done on the sample level, and copacul vietii, rooted into the deep house glory days yet connecting this fertile ground with the future dancefloors through dreamy loops reverbed around the phat bassline. flip the record to reveal the side that would most certainly drain the dancefloor energy: the chicago-esque piano to break the fast cavernous patterns in speologie versus zibi’s techno structure, softened just enough to keep us from sliding into the darkness.
tested already on the house music hungry crowds by raresh, the name behind metereze.

this is idle033: the sound of an accomplished dancefloor producer stretching out. these aren t straight dance tracks, neither is this a ponderous ambient lp. this is vivid, vital electronic music for modern times. tracks to cut through the monotony of depressingly average house and techno releases. the music shimmers with warmth and humanity, a testament to karmil s personality as well as his skill as a producer. one can sense in the tracks that this a musician who has travelled and absorbed much along the way: long drawn out winter nights in sweden with the studio barnhus crew. years spent in cologne with its distinguished electronic sound, a city which has given so much to the world with kompakt and more. last but not least you can sense karmil s upbringing here in the uk, the roughness and rudeness all added to the mix. idle hands has never been a label to follow trends or to take the easy path. it has strived to keep people guessingand to remain in awe and wonder at new music being produced. inmatt karmil it has found a producer whoembodies this notion.

italian rudeboy ivan iacobucci brings his brand of lowdown funk-influenced tech house to apollonia with this sterling three-tracker. over two decades of hard work and dedication to his craft has culminated in ivan’s untainted reputation and widespread respect within the underground from true heads like zip and, of course, the apollonia boys. his love of jazz in evident throughout this ep which is full of subtlety and depth, pulsating b-lines and smooth chords are interlaced with razor-sharp percussion and delicate keys. the first track ‘old in on’ has a laid back, though driving, groove, pushing forward with a hefty bassline that is perfectly counterbalanced by the light twinkling keys and barely-there pads. ‘scris frumos’ encapsulates more of an ominous, tribal feeling with intricate effects trickling through every pore of its deep, dark exterior. its atmospherics keep you intrigued, voices echo in the background and a few moments of softened chimes really intensify the already mysterious vibe. ‘mini ass’ channels more of that electro-funk that forms the foundation of ivan’s love for music, haywire radio pulses prance around stuttered beats, giving it a slightly cosmic feel, while pipes add a more organic nuance to the track. absolutely masterful work from ivan, and another inspired addition to the apollonia catalogue.

tracks description:
a1 - raining: calma opens up with a hypnotic rumbler! snaps and claps take us in, before the eery synths and floating pointesque keys punctuate and a squelqchy, distorted bassline rumbles beneath the surface, making you feel like you re at a party in a haunted church. a2 - cuattro: calma takes us on a tropical trip, with an infectious sun-filled groove looping over incessant layers of beat patterns that weave in and out of the track teasingly, driven along by a banging bass drum to keep you nodding. b1 - mr amarè: calma shows his love for acid house with an epic, ever-evolving influenced roller that blends together nearly every percussion instrument you could ever dream of. crashes, symbals and a cowbell drive it along, underscored by a seriously funky bass line and mysterious vocal sample that emerges halfway through tying it all together nicely. b2 - cuattro /juju & jordash rmx): juju and jordash take over the remix duties for calma. the dutch duo add their deep trademark sunshine inflected beats and sturdy basslines to the already tropical loop, while infusing swirling synths and strings that lead us in and out of the breakdowns and on to a late night, chilled-out dance floor.

the organ grinder mints his new record label with a bulked up reissue of a gem from his back catalogue that will make djs - and dancers - very happy. far from throwaway, this is music rooted in the 90s us garage sound of kerri chandler, masters at work and early todd edwards, with the intensity of true deep house and the light rhythmic touch of ukg. obsession originally came out almost 5 years ago, but there s simplicity in its skittering rhythm and a mantra of rising minor-note synth hits that keep it burning into the dancefloor. x rated hits like its inverted counterpart, with a more heavily weighted drum groove and garage stabs that spiral down your spine. physicality finishes the ep with cunningly-sampled soul music, sung notes of passion belted out over a tense background of keys and rhodes chords, weaving an atmosphere that only comes out of expertly woven harmony

past midnight. empty streets. from an ill lit doorway a sound. a woman. shadow. a scent. drawn into one. smoke and synthesizer music swirls. bionda e lupo. crossing the threshold, tripping into twilight. analogue emotion, styles twirled like garlands. nervous shuffles and the touch of fingertips. weaving, bodies twirl as morning shoulders into night. the realisation. the edge of eyes. curl of lip. the click of heels with creak of floor. feeling flows, ebbs, cascades and floods. lipstick and heavy perfume. two forms swimming in currents, bending to one another in the warm glow of aging speakers. breath and pulse quicken. electricity spiked with passion. the final embrace. whispered promises. a kiss.
