90s jungle

raw but sophistaced deep techno, clearly schooled in the classics, lands courtesy of dublin’s 393 records. label owner philip galvin jnr opens proceedings with two effortlessly grooving cuts. “sub osc” is powered by purring 101 bass & chiming synth tones & “lapping” lets it’s ear wiggling sequence modulate underneath lush pads. on the flip, the parallel cranks up the energy levels with the acidic thud of “voyager” before closing the ep with the dreamy & rolling breakbeat cut, “ascender”.

the young nordic label is back at it with a sturdy 12” vinyl release, produced by the helsinki underground electronic music champion poly sone. the three tracker kicks off with an intro track titled “come find me” which combines stripped down rhythm patterns with a subtle choir pad. on top of the foundation, an entrancing spoken word verse works as the main ingredient throughout the track. as the needle pushes onwards to the title track “echolocate”, the listener is confronted with a robust wall of lowend, soon accompanied by rolling percussions and clever use of reverb and delay. the simple composition highlights its sterling production and makes for a highly useful dancefloor tool. the last track “helix” bundles up the record nicely as the most melodic one of the bunch. the agile synth stabs and dystopic pads operate on a surprisingly groovy soil of bass and drums which add up to a dreamy whole.

moscow based multi-talent impish presents the ÒhushÓ lp, his latest album project that has been released strictly on vinyl and is now available on cd as well.
working through labels such as hospital records, c.i.a., program and his own fast rising occulti music imprint impish is quickly establishing a name for himself in the global drum & bass scene. in a world that consumes more and more music in a superficial way impish manages to take a halt on the hush lp with timeless songwriting, arrangement and production inspired by live music and drum work.
from effortlessly rolling tracks such as ÒcanÕt feelÓ and ÒshadowsÓ towards more introspective vibes on Òchanging coloursÓ and the lpÕs title track a common thread runs clearly throughout the album: the aim for perfection, true craftmanship and a drive to combine to high-quality beats and breaks with musical elements. uk based female singer kate wild, julia marks and irish drum & bass producer zero t feature on the album for vocal appearances and remix work.

trelik returns with a repackaged edition of one of the catalogues most treasured releases. overcome and lady science (nyc sunrise) need little introduction, and now come sporting the new tr11:11 matrix number. written and produced by thomas melchior and baby ford aka soul capsule. these tracks came from one of the many sessions recorded at the west london ifach studio in 1999. on the a side overcome is stripped back and energetic, driven by rolling and shuffling garage style beats, tight bubbling bass and atmospheric synth pads. the intermittent vocal samples and the release s signature organ set you up for the flip, lady science (nyc sunrise) . possibly one of house music s most emotive pieces, the track builds slowly with the introduction of each part building a story of soulful optimism based around a sparse palette of deep synths, uplifting keys and warm analogue bass. the understated beauty of the main vocal riff never seems to grow old or tired with the track lending itself perfectly to either main room, peak-time play or after-hours sessions alike. remastered by rashad at d & m
