merkur releases its 6th ep which has a new, different approach compared to the last eps for which it has gained much praise during the past 5 years. the a-side >theme of mercury< was produced by label founder shingo suwa and akirahawks, who is known for the unique re-edit label house mannequin. the two of them mainly perform at homopatik in berlin. theme of mercury is a hypnotic track which was created with some broken old synth and sends your mind on an intergalactic odyssey, before diving into the deepest ocean on a journey to forget about space and time. the first track of the b-side is a remix from ducerey ada nexino aka yuji kondo, also known for his work under both his own name and as a half of steven porter on semantica. the remix fastens up the mix by repetitive pulsating synths, giving the beat an industrial modern atmosphere and letting the crowd heating up. the second track on the flip-side, called >barsoom<, is a solo production by shingo and completes the whole package. the functional work of a cut up 303 acid line with raw bass and a running groove creates an insistent and deeply pressured feeling. vinyl only, limited to 300 copies.

fresh from lovers rock: two new hypnotic live takes from ital, recorded at red bull studios in madrid this june. aptly-titled a-side *throbbing* rides a spiraling arpeggio in and out of focus against a jacking 909 beat, while *nodding* builds from a simple motif into a resonating, full-immersion soundscape.
continuing the thread started earlier this year with his 12 inch for workshop and the interplanetary prophets collaboration with jamal moss, *throbbing / nodding* showcases itals move away from a computer-based approach into live hardware. the results are two stunning balancing acts, simultaneously propulsive and melting, mysterious and raw.

the relentless work ethic of dj w!ld shows no sign of slowing down with another amazing ep, this time through his own imprint the w label, that unleashes four new tracks plus a dubbed out remix. in contrast to his recent output on other labels the four tracks sit firmly in the dj tools category with stripped back arrangements, raw-to-the-bone underground house grooves and drums showcasing all that is good about the parisians highly in-demand dj sets. head-nodding tribal infused percussion is the main theme with tracks blind and miami bitch setting the scene with a brass breakdown in the latter that is sure to send shivers down spines. narco switches things up with its core element focused around a shoulder shaking bass organ straight out of the 90s. on board gets and original and re-worked dub outing with hypnotic congas and a vocal that loops inside the mind.

limited nice price action !!!
