catalognumber 23 – what else is to say? while we are feeling the spirit of william s. burroughs blessing this very vinyl-enigma, &me went particularly mysterious ways to transcend the category - dance track - for this one. the meditation through bass had been the major discipline of some of his latest cuts, but what you will find on this a-side, one could certainly call the perfection of somnambulistic peaktime-fever. the way he is kneading the lower frequencies, how he is channeling the expansion and decay of bass must inevitably lead to some aroused moaning. good vocal-selection, for that matter! then there are those tension building synths and a staccato-frenzy in the break that might be the ultimate ecstasy-trigger of the season. * locust* on b comes in with some smoothly looped e-guitar-coolness, adding whispering hi-hats and a comparatively rich percussive architecture. but then again: rolling bass barrels like a signature and a defence breaking build up thats ensued by liberating pressure compensation in mighty breaks. two demonstrations of understated and sophisticated peaktime-emphasis, so to say. or differently put: a flawless double-a-side.

following last month’s uncompromising ‘yearn’ ep from j.tijn, pennyroyal continues to invest in techno’s kicks of tomorrow by welcoming myler into our family circle. with releases on fifth wall and apothecary compositions already under his belt, myler powers forward with three hits of medicinal grade club fuel. the saturated drum bump of lead track ‘gorilla biscuits’ dunks hard with its rolling groove and percussive hook, playing out with the bounce of 90’s strictly rhythm counterpointed by fierce snarls and switch up’s that evoke 90s’ reinforced. the shortbread edit is for the happy faced warehouse crew, pushing the same driving groove through some toughening acid treatments. ‘carol vorderman’ is the most abrasive of the pack spitting out stressed kicks and crumbling stabs for the won’t leave the venue crew.

title track don t stop is a loose and playful thing that chucks loopy, circular drums, little vocal riffs, synth stabs and tumbling toms into the mix and lets them all groove along for almost six infectious minutes. its a spritely, silvery and slithering concoction that makes you shake your every limb. stare is a deeper, darker thing with rattling snares rolling over flappy kick drums and wobbling synths ducking in and out of the space left behind. its a tumultuous, drum lead affair that toys with your expectation, threatening to drop or explode but never quite doing so, instead keeping you right on the edge of your seat throughout. the final offering is nian which again has super well defined drums and hits all tumbling and sparking off each other. it s spacious stuff, too, and the indecipherable foreign language vocals add another layer of intrigue to what is already a fascinating cut.
