the skull returns to kindisch with four impeccably sultry and leftfield dancefloor cuts. >must have back< is silky, chicaning mix of ice-cool male vocals and slick, vacuum-packed percussion that will prove devastating to discerning dancefloors, while >lalalala< is a raw, spaced-out house jam that serves up spry, bouncy congas, wobbly bass and clipped hi-hat patterns with no small amount of dubby echo and delay. >forever ever< is a wonderfully trippy slice of minimal techno, a heady bass and percussion workout haunted by the blue, smoky ghosts of jazz keys. be careful - you may well find yourself hypnotized forever ever.the mood is less abstract but no less intense or inviting for deep, reverb-laden closing track >lovesong<. an insistent kick-drum and mind-bending fx make this prime dancefloor material, but the mood of the track is more complex - wistful, pining, mindful of the past, expectant of the future - a lovesong through and through.

played by karotte, sebo k, shinedoes... >hamlin< leads us down a path so groovy, its hard to resist this dreamy tale from the very beginning. steady pushing drums define the tracks mood, amounting to a tactful combination of classic deep house vibes flowing freely against solid and functional percussive elements. drifting late night synths and childlike, ethereal chants osmose the mind of the listener, warming and arousing, spreading only positive energy on the dancefloor. deep vibes rec sascha dive takes hamlin off on his own trip, elegantly stripping down the groove of the original and spacing things out even further. this mix is a pure and prolonged snapshot of the orignals travelling mood, building the groove in subtler steps, emphasised by dives treatment of the chanting, spinning vocals and playful, live arrangement. opening with the same finely strung groove as >hamlin<, >snowflakes< introduces a beautiful and delicately dubbed melody amongst its bubbling rhythms

the 3rd release by scott grooves on his natural midi label, this is scotts first ever ep and color vinyl release. all 4 tracks possess a different mood and distinct raw edge, which plays well on this well balanced ep.track 1 dark blu speaks for itself, simply stated and deeply enriched. the relentless melody never lets go of the groove and the groove never lets go the melody. everything in this track harmonizes together perfectly.track 2 dna definitely disturbs the peace with vintage analog synth sounds. the old school sounding vocal sample echoes thruout the track that >detroit needs analog records< take a listen and decide if that echoes true!track 3 >it doesnt all have to be techy< as the title suggest there is know >techyness< here, its all about a deeply stormin groove that is enriched with warm melodic keys and a lovely guitar, yes i said guitar that altogether creates a feelin thats organic but not boring. track 4 decimalquivers in and out with a fm gritty synth stab, complete with minimal drums or as scott calls them >drims< which is the term scott uses for minimal drums. also present is a deep pad sound that brews slowly like an eruption. co-produced by panther, a name you will hear more about in the future

already supported by pan-pot, sebo k, anja schneider, kiki, karotte... simplicity is the name of the game on both tracks here. on >louder elvis<, the two unleash pure deep-house bounce over ominous, detroit-inspired pads, clean-as-a-whistle bleeps laser their way through a fog of dubbed-out delay. the tunes flow suggests a live session, with tumbling chords following their own whims, but theres nothing haphazard about it. this ones all about the afterhours, head down and moving steadily into the light. a vocal sample kicks off >radio graceland< but dont expect any bloated rock n roll theatrics. instead, van dowski and agnès lay down a slowly rolling groove with a latin touch and even a little bit of reggaetón lurch. hand drums dapple the landscape with faded colors, keeping the mood subdued—at least, until the beat gathers steam and bright, syncopated chords splash about. groaning analog noises push the energy restlessly forward, driving dancers to wild abandon: the track is as effective as it is unconventional. what else would you expect from two of switzerlands most uncompromising crowdpleasers

gavin herlihy has long been one of dance musics most respected journalists and djs, and with two acclaimed releases on mood music last year and more recently a brace of top-drawer remixes for unkle and alexkid, hes fast becoming one of its hottest producers. freshly relocated to berlin, his debut 12inch for kindisch, >opium haze<, confirms his status as a skilled and innovative player on the house and techno scene. >opium haze< is as heady and intoxicating as its title implies, an effortlessly psychedelic piece of music thats nonetheless firmly rooted on the dancefloor. it begins with a clicky, funked-up conga tattoo cloaked in disorienting effects which partly obscure the jazzy melody rising up from the mixs depths. out of that sticky, dubby fug emerges an insistent, upward-tripping piano line and synthesized string stabs - together forming the kind of rave-ready hook that will cause immediate damage in the club. herlihy is superbly heavy on the edit, using an eastern woodwind sample, disembodied voices and various percussive elements to deliver build after build, drop after explosive drop. >opium haze< is a hugely satisfying piece of music, and a club anthem-in-waiting. >professional exit< is a more stripped-down but no less accomplished affair, driven by a warm, rippling bassline and phased electronics. before the percussion intesifies and interlocks, offsetting a sparse one-note synth line which hangs in the air, thickening it with understated drama. at once seductive and unsettling, experimental and club-oriented, >professional exit< is indeed a professional end to a highly professional 12inch
