after the uneventful resolution of a labour dispute at assistance hq, the resident pencil-pushers turn their tempo dial to a leisurely 105bpm, at long last serving up lukewarm plates of beam-03 to the more sluggish peak-time massive. in mambala , the now-obligatory bongo jostles with squelchy synths, whilst echoed claps and ominous bells should see even the most hesitant rabbit dragged down the hole. bebny experiments with low ph levels, metallic clutter, and some surprise horn cameos.
uk based producer hugo massien has been slowly but surely making a name for himself over the past few years. metamorphosis marks hugos debut lp on the e-beamz record label.

vinyl only!003 comes from new kid on the block dj swagger, fresh from his debut 12 on natural sciences, here we 3 super deep club jams from the baltimore inspired 1s & 2s to the straight up deep house flavours of get lit and the a1 bomb lost!
editions mego is proud to publish the third release by sendai. comprised of peter van hoesen and yves de mey, ground and figure presents the duo reside in a more economic framework which allows the sound and rhythm they produce more room to shift, swirl and swim the circumference of the audio spectrum. moving away from the twitchiness and anxiety of the earlier output ground and figure is a vast spacious journey from a duo in full control of their chosen path.
throughout ground and figure abstraction and rhythm weave amongst each other in such a sly manner that the resulting tension in the conflicting elements presents the listener with a hypothetical high-tech elastic percussive grid. a thudding, pulsating, shapeshifting ambient beast is summoned by these two creators working as one.
this is machine music. this is hypnotic disorientation. this is an immense ambitious and refined world of sound and rhythm. this is the work of two producers who continuously try to top up their skills.
the double vinyl lp includes a download code.
