the e.p kicks off with she can dance, a slow burning acid number that has elements of deep, grooving house from the detroit school. in fact, the second cut low control bares the influence of detroit too, with its murky, dubbed-out chords ala luke hess moving into a punchy bassline with minimal but functional drum patterns. proceedings get a bit more bouncy on the smoking hat, a quirky acid romp on the less daft side of ceephax, and the perfect soundtrack to accompany a feature-length documentary about.... a smoking hat. finishing up the e.p is fudge fingas remix of low control, the only man qualified to make an already deep as fuck track even deeper. theres been some on-point criticisms about a lot recent deep stuff getting lost in noodly jazz territory, but we are in no danger of that nonsense with fudge fingas at the controls: accomplished a musician he may be, hes never been one to lose the way, and this mix proves his deft and subtle remix talents. dabj done done it again, and hopefully this is the first in a long line of productions from vernon.

knox is the band brainchild of brother-sister duo nic and eliza coolidge. hailing from boston and new york, the siblings released their second ep, here, on december 3rd, and it is a big step forward for the band. formed less than two years ago, in march 2011, knox finds themselves working with the likes of john tejada and kuxxan suum on this release, and the outcome is stunning. here is five-song set full of ice and echoes. it runs as close to the third rail of impersonation, but flies away so quickly that knox sounds contextual and perfectly fresh. the influences from james blake is clear: the swooping, bomber bass and half-timey compressed dub beats, here could also easily be an inventive b-side to the latest how to dress well album. but, with the limited scale, interspersed remixes and foundling status in the scene, i would say it is likely a more impressive feat. the ep as a whole is desolate. expansive spaces filled with cold little beats and vocal washes, exploring in the course of five songs an icescape aesthetic with a sense of place usually reserved for full-length albums. the remixes blend so seamlessly that i didnt even realize they were during my first, casual listen.
vinyl only release !!
long standing tsuba artist spencer parker makes his limited debut complete with the first ever remix from italojohnson. the original mix has a deep detroit house flavour and the remix is a pure bomb as you would expect from the super hot italojohnson. this vinyl only release is a marriage made in heaven for vinyl junkies!

detroit veteran len bartush (mutate) returns to advance the series that began with the now classic circle 1. a full round kick and jack style upbeats are all that is necessary to support the deep, modulated synth lines that travel through lush plates of reverb. alberto pascual hits a homerun with his remix that will move any club, festival, or warehouse party. project 313s remix supplies moving synth lines are stripped down and replaced with driving rhythms and pulsating bass making this a superb techno offering. the plankton remix turns up the tension with warehouse style percussion and intertwining rhythms complimented by science- fictionesque stabs and pounding bass. the >circle 2< ep is an essential piece of detroit minimalism.
underbelly records return this january with a three track ep from dutch producer wouter de moor, entitled >dx love< and backed with a remix from kris wadsworth.
the kris wadsworths zombie surfer remix opens the ep here and in true wadsworth fashion embraces a raw, dubbed out detroit vibe. punchy drilling beats and underlying twisted melodies drive the track alongside a penetrating arpeggiated bass-line, the result is a moody, peak-time slow bloomer with a touch of class as expected from the detroit master.
pressing on white vinyl.
