Catalog #:	MCMLXV 001EP

"Two storming new tracks arrive courtesy of J.S. Zeiter on this new MCMLXV 12". Already finding big favour with Michael Mayer and the Kompakt cognoscenti amongst others, this is definitely one to watch -- both epics ready made for the outdoors season and filled with enough darkness for the warehouse. The opening cut 'Switch' sets the record straight in the first few bars, crisp percussion and a staunch synth set the groove alight, all topped with mechanoid handclaps and some scintillating, melodic work. Using repetition as the starting point, Mr Zeiter constructs lengthy, subtly edited tracks -- staying trenchantly within the boundaries of techno, each deep groove is lovingly fashioned for an outstanding, classic feel and pure incendiary dancefloor potential. The melodic synths that appear and fade throughout the track are just one facet of the deep production, hinting at chasmic depths and disguising the amount of considered editing within the track. Flip over for the huge cut that is 'Motion_Sickness', a glass-like arpeggiated melody modulates over the beats and creates a vibe with unmistakeable shades of Maurizio, a deep techno number with again that classic vibe, and a huge floor potential that explains the appeal to ravers everywhere. Top shelf tech-shizznizz."

Artist:	ANALOG~1
Title:	B-Line
Label:	MCMLXV (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	MCMLXV 002EP

"Excellent new deep techno and electronic manuvers from this best-kept-secret Manchester label. This mysterious artist is a veteran of the Kompakt label's hugely regarded 'Pop Ambient' series. B-line is a presumptuous title, for surely the most central element of almost all music over the last 20 years has been the exploration of low-end frequency. Analog~1 subscribes both to the latest impulses of the Minimal Nation, yet utilising some classic outboard gear, to warm up the deepest of basslines in a manner equally at home early hours in the clubs of Detroit, London or Berlin. The effortless hi-hat splashes emit tell-tale shades of the Michigan masters."
