makcim has been a standard-bearer for reduced house music in amsterdam for around a decade now. as a resident dj he has been a cornerstone of the vbx brand since their early days. in the past years he has found his footing in the studio as well. together with studio partner levi verspeek he forms a creative tandem that has been outputting certified dance floor heat on quality labels such as raum, lhr and apollonia. against this backdrop its not hard to imagine why they were invited to create the third installment for the vbx label. the pair delivered a 3 tracker showcasing their brand of sultry and irresistibly groovy house music. this one is guaranteed to shake up dance floors around the world. dont miss out and snatch up a copy before they are gone...

ltd 2017 repress !! maxim donskoi and levi verspeek are both hailing from amsterdam. they bonded over their mutual love for intricate and layered house music and started producing tracks together under their makcim and levi moniker. soon they found out that makcims strong musical vision and levis productional finesse make for a combatant combination of ideals that resulted in the daan de pup ep

time for some double dutch action with apollonia’s latest release, which comes courtesy of makcim & levi. the twosome have already been picking up steam in their native holland, playing at many of the country’s best-known clubs over the last few years, establishing themselves as selectors in a class of their own. and their prowess as djs is equal to their talents as producers, with their very first ep appearing on raum musik and finding its way into apollonia’s sets. now they’ve got together once again to produce their second ep just for the apollonia guys…the ‘more lettuce’ ep fits perfectly into the french label’s sound ethic, emitting a dark groovy energy throughout. for starters we have ‘more lettuce’, a gritty tech-driven monster on a mission. with its gravely percussion and air-raid siren-esque effects this is a surefire dance floor killer… listen out for the switch of pace, class. this is followed by ‘tegel’, presumably named after the airport in berlin. with this we get a kind of dingy berlin vibe, morose, grey yet ingrained with a bouncing energy that you just can’t help but bop your head to. on the flip side ‘thaiman’ injects a slightly odd feel to the ep with warped, muted sounds meandering around a subtle bassline. finally, makcim & levi close up the ep with ‘dope erwt’ another roller that will enchant the dance floor from the start, building into a bright, airy breakdown before continuing in its somber yet groovy manner.
