for their latest vinyl release, the tink! music label looks to lisbon and the enigmatic duo gatupreto, whose modo di trabadja 12betrays all manner of influences that seep beyond the realm of house music. in their own words, the art gatupreto generates is simple, unpretentious and sincere, it owes to the classic rave vibe as much as to the rawness of hip hop as much to the sunset of cape verde as to the sunrise of the lisbon riverside.this manifests itself in two understandably diverse productions from gatupreto with the heavily percussive workout of vahagn s closing remix of grandi loba of particular note.

midgar is proud to introduce a newcomer for the third release. a great debut for the maltese cloned, delivering not less than 4 cuts with sapphire 1990 e.p. the record, way more straightforward and groove centered than the previous midgar outputs, opens with sapphire 1990, track that sounds like very nostalgic memories from a timeless rave. thanks to a genuine simplicity and the great arrangement of its elements, this first cut has the perfect characteristics to become a dancefloor anthem. on the same side, a live out-take from cloned�s repertory, the pendulum swinging synth-lines which dominate pretty direct rhythmics filled with hi-hats and claps over a costant background noise. belgassem as the first cut on the b side, is an absolutely heavy one for the label�s standards, made of deep kickin� drums and haunting voices empowered by a really strong and obsessive acid-line. closing the vinyl, the slow (and again really acidic) submerging is like a lysergic vessel headed to more comfortable dimensions, where groovy drums are embraced by very bright heavenly pads. sudden death is instead a chilled-out broken beat interrupted by confused speeches and detroitish pads, resulting as a modern ritual of ascension towards higher spheres. corel drives the release to the end, recalling most of its main features: a restless run through misty soundscapes along a path studded of bells and overwhelming, sharp hi-hats.

scuba s musical biography has been a story of constant change. over the past eleven years, his music has zigzagged through bass, techno and house, at times dark and contemplative, at others bright and anthemic. a look at his discography bears out this creative restlessness: from the shadowy rhythms of a mutual antipathy and triangulation, through the soaring melodies of personality and the cardinal -adrenalin- ep. claustrophobia is more than just the next phase in this development�it s a culmination of everything that s come so far. as its name implies, the record is tense and inward-looking, but it s also rich and dynamic, nimbly moving through a panorama of moods and styles. rhythms expand and contract from one song to the next, textural passages give way to shimmering strands of melody, found sounds and field recordings breathe life into ambient sketches. the album is modern and understated throughout, but also touched with something unrestrained: the exhilarating energy of classic rave.

yet another classic master reese production from the vaults. this time from way back in 1991. -speaker punishing- was a stone cold detroit killer that crossed over here in the uk and european rave scenes due to it s break-beat laden hardcore appeal, string quartet samples and incessant bass-line while it s flip-side -feel the mood- carries that after hours detroit vibe over two different mixes (ably mixed by the legendary marty bonds) and still sounds amazingly fresh and current today some 20+ years later. both tracks are essential weapons to have in one s dj bag and display what a versatile producer kevin saunderson is with two totally different energies sharing the same slab of wax. re-mastered, re-pressed and re-released for 2015 with all original incognito label artwork with the full consent of kevin -master reese- saunderson, detroit mi. essential!
