heard on �melancholia� are interpretations of honzo�s subconscious visions of life. the intense compositions are made up of drones, noises and distorted beats moving in and out of the frame. on opener �orientalism� said elements blend with hi-hat brushes, brassy synth pads, sci-fi noises and distant human voices evoking islam�s �adhan� (call to prayer). the theme contemplates over alienation caused by western accounts of �orientalism�, soaked in �hüzün� (the turkish term for melancholia). on a2 a rework of �moral masochism� is provided by the mysterious shadows outfit, starting with a distorted guitar over a slow and gritty rhythmic backbone which gradually turns into a chaotic high-intensity acid jam on the ep�s most dance floor suitable cut. on the flipside, �lovesickness� presents a broken kick rhythm periodically flipped by toms and accompanied by a disorienting hi-hat rhythm, ghostly strings and sporadic human moans � all resulting in a tribal mood, recalling a ceremony, perhaps a quest for a saviour from the blue temper? b2 presents the �moral masochism� original. again a distorted guitar plays over a slow rhythm, but compared to the remix, the original�s intensity is introverted, contemplating over melancholia�s effect of deriving gratification from self-inflicted moral humiliation. ambient closer �emptiness� explores a cold state with such an encapsulating airiness that it feels like a close account of another person�s mood down to the impression of their breath. arpeggiated synth noises appear from a distance representing increasing pressure from the outside world without ever suppressing the state of mind. as a result, �emptiness� sums up the state of melancholia experienced as a mood rather than the effect of a cause.

tectonic label boss pinch returns to home territory with his latest tales from the darkside. hard, uncompromising beats, sculpted for twisted dancefloors. lead track �screamer� sees recent collaborator and grime-legend, riko dan, pick up the mic to voice pinch�s industrial garage style rhythm, true to terror-form. complementing the darkside sonics, riko�s savage delivery threatens from the offset, with no let-up, no sign of weakness. not for the faint hearted. flip for �no justice�, seeing pinch on solo production duties providing a sub-heavy pounding rhythm, twisting an almost ragga style beat in dark dub territory. police sirens wail around calamitous thunder and atmospherics before the beat pounds in. second drop brings warped basslines to the forefront, pushing things further down the rabbit hole. �screamer� has been played on bbc radio 1 on the benji b show, also featured on mary-anne hobbs� 6 music show. dj support from the likes of mumdance, loefah & many more.

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

third release on freakadelle records imprint franse. cold winter nights needed to be used for some heated production sessions in the cellar. the result is a raw shuffling mover, which evolves from an initially broken rhythm into a deep stomping 4-to-the- floor creature, accompanied throughout by typical franse mysteriousness. hand numbered, vinyl only and limited to 170 copies.

pure techno bliss on resopal. french techno ambassadors vakarm and shekon welcome us with four dark, straighter and more paranoid techno weapons on voices ep . -voices- presents an old school, intense techno vibe with a grinding synth hook, leading us into the heart of the beast. taking the best of techno s oldschool-era drums -- combined with the producers top-class production, it s quite a handful. fragile features a stoic rhythm and sparse sci-fi tricks turning the track into a hypnotic tool. -grel- lays down a pounding bass-end topped with spiraling layers of synth. shekon s rework of -voices- shouldn t fail to set dancefloors on fire. after a massive build-up, tricky percussion combines with sci-fi effects and the synth theme from the original. big prime time techno

�escape from reality� as first track, goes down as a bleeping submarine, deep diving into underwater caves where a slow and hypnotic rhythm reverberates through ears and mind. second cut �alchemy� continues the interdimensional explorations, and after long intro, it gradually detaches from the surface reaching a leaden sky. drums and claps alternates on a soundscape of constant roars, holding the track in a steady mesmerizing jingle. the b-side opens with �found myself�, edgy broken beat with a stronger and more club-oriented dynamism which finds its best shot in the last cut �chain reaction�. a ravishing synthline drives through tribalesque drums, snares and thunderclaps to close the record with a mystic vibe....

produced somewhere between a basement in brussels and an attic in the outskirts of paris, back when tape reel to reels, primitive rhythm boxes and analogue synths still carried a vague promise of the future, this music translated a certain atomic paranoia fuelled by the cold war industry. lo-fi music, abrasive, high pressure, dense, clipped to the max, like it was intended to punish any woofer that gets between it and the air.

as mood ii swing, production duo lem springsteen and john ciafone became one of the most in-demand remixers in the late 90s. the duo s production career began modestly, however. after a failed attempt at r&b, the two turned to house music. early productions such as sylvano s * helpless* and wall of sound s *critical* were a step in the right direction, as were releases such as -i need a bitch- for cutting and -searchin - for groove on, but it was the duo s remixes of ultra naté s * free* for strictly rhythm that struck gold. the song became a huge hit and soon mood ii swing was remixing big-name producers like bt (-remember-) and king britt (* the reason*) as well as the next ultra naté single, * found a cure*, which also became a huge hit record around the world. then, as a testament to the duos success, the new york-based nervous have dug up the remixes mood ii swing did for the label during their seminal mid 90s period re mastered and re released on wax for 2016.
