Herlihy & Torrance - So That's What Happens

Gavin Herlihy and Craig Torrance - London based - are the pieces that produced this unique ep. A great work, perfect to the christmas season, where the deep spaces and minimal feelings take place. The calm melody that joins the music always uprising together with the synths that leads you to a some kind of higher stage are perfect."So that's what happens" has been in the playlists off Dj's like Damian Lazarus, Kiki or Tiefschwarz wich tell's us that this is not just one more track. Traveling around deep house, electro and minimal breaks, this is a fabulous one!
In the B side you have Isolée's remix, old school producer, that knows what to do and when to do it. He took the voice's out, got it more minimal and arranged it perfect to be a classical like the a side. Nice and suprising work released on mood music.

a1 - So That's What Happens
b1 - So That's What Happens (Isolée remix)

Eyerer & Atto - Supersnack

Martin Eyerer and Gui Boratto got together to form a new project, we hope to be the first of many releases from this great producers as a team. Supersnack is a trippy funky track, gathering the best of what this guys can make. The percussion and the neurotic beat that marks the music makes you cry for more... In the first track of the b side you have Zigon remix of Supersnack, making it a more cool but less minimal track, not as "doable" as the original is in the dancelfloors. The b2 side presents Hacke's remix, i'm glad he and his music are back. The track is a peace of art, transforming the original into a pumpy one full of energy and good taste. A trapez release, great one, the 51st

b1 - Supersnack (Zigon rmx)
b2 - Supersnack (Oliver Hacke rmx)

Gaiser - Neural Block

After the first Ep "And Answer" Gaiser is back with another release on m_nus - Neural Block. His reputation is growing day by day and this fabulous ep confirms everything we may be expecting from him. The music seems to have a certain power inside you, i think i heard all the tracks previously, in Magda or Hawtin sets..."Neural block" presents everything you will be listening during the ep, underground rythm, disturbed micro-sounds building the path of the music, just the title can describe the music a lot. "Half Life" - 2nd track - will be a classic in a few time, minimalist bass line, always recycling itself with a subtle growing environment full of dark little samples. A master piece...

"Seepage" keeps the disturbance of the others, it's a music to enjoy in the early hours of the night with an hypnotic melody that will mess you up. "Off Print" is the most clitchy and pumpy track of the Ep... just hear it and you'll find out why... attention on the snares that full fill all the parts of the music. Closing one - "Separation" - keeping all the beats, snares and texture that you should be used to when you are listening Gaiser's music... another killer.A brilliant classy release, the 45th off m_nus.

a1 - Neural Block
a2 - Half Life
b1 - Seepage
b2 - Off Print

Martinez - Echochamber

Great release to start the week; winter seems to bring to producers dark and deep meanings to its music. Echochamber, first track of the ep, presents us dark feelings with a deep bass and crazy disturbed sounds leading it to a great underground groove. Wooden Box keeps the patterns of the A side, it presents a great flow and its not as darker as the other. Two great tracks of Martinez marking his return to Audiomatique Records after the great mixed cd "Audiomatique Volume 1". Just Don't Stop Dancing

Thomas Fehlmann - Emo Pack

Ep nr 146 of Kompakt recds. Thomas Fehlmann, berlim based producer, presents us a nice release drifting through techno, minimal,dub and ambient sounds. A1 is a great track, pumpy yet calm, quiet but disturbed, always with constructive fases, making the music fullfill emotions and thoughts. Powdered, the 2nd track of the ep, goes more minimal, more funky and less deep... a nice one two. Dusted is a typical Kompakt track, hear it and you'll know what i'm talking about. The last track is a special one two, cause it's driven to the late morning hours. Perfect release by Fehlmannm representing old school as it is!
