Merkur releases its 6th EP which has a new, different approach compared to the last EPs for which it has gained much praise during the past 5 years. The A-Side >Theme Of Mercury< was produced by label founder Shingo Suwa and Akirahawks, who is known for the unique Re-edit label House Mannequin. The two of them mainly perform at Homopatik in Berlin. Theme Of Mercury is a hypnotic track which was created with some broken old synth and sends your mind on an intergalactic odyssey, before diving into the deepest ocean on a journey to forget about space and time. The first track of the B-side is a remix from Ducerey Ada Nexino aka Yuji Kondo, also known for his work under both his own name and as a half of Steven Porter on Semantica. The remix fastens up the mix by repetitive pulsating synths, giving the beat an industrial modern atmosphere and letting the crowd heating up. The second track on the flip-side, called >Barsoom<, is a solo production by Shingo and completes the whole package. The functional work of a cut up 303 acid line with raw bass and a running groove creates an insistent and deeply pressured feeling. Vinyl only, limited to 300 copies.
