F*CLR are hugely excited and honoured to present Moscow producer/DJ Mutenoise aka Alexander Bannikov and his masterful ‘Midnight’ EP – available on digital and limited 12 Inch, the vinyl has the bonus track, ‘Northern Lights’ is a Vinyl exclusive!

But meanwhile, back to the EP – kicking off with Mutenoise’s original version of ‘Midnight’, rooted in the deep tradition of jazz dancers, has a toughness that crosses over and aligns itself to modern house with a warm, soulful vibe. On the remix tip, Ashley Beedle ramps up the drums with a nod towards the classic sound of 90’s New York and MAW releases and along with the ‘Stripped Back’ + ‘Mixers Delight’ edits, he adds an extra element of remix goodness for the heads. ‘Rules of Monopoly’ is proper late night tunage, perfect for those 5am sets, with its crisp handclaps + percussion, rising chords underpinned by an unwavering bassline – house music at it’s very best. And just to tease you – ‘Northern Lights’ (bonus vinyl only track) - another jazz soaked house track with beautiful chords, ephemeral vocal samples – echoes of downtown Moscow after dark….

Originally from far flung Western Siberia, Mutenoise gravitated towards Moscow and became an intergral part of the vibrant Russian electronic dance scene rubbing shoulders with the likes of Lay Far and fellow F*CLR artist, Stan Serkin. Mutenoise has released on such labels as Raw Underground Records (UK), Vesna (UA), Underground Sources (TN), Smile for a While (DE).
