THEOM 023EP
|
An-2's Mint EP is a collection of four space-boogie jams spanning a variety of moods and tempos. The lo-fi beats and pulsating kalimba-esque arpeggios on "Sigint" create a sci-fi movie soundtrack feel, while an ultra-deep kick drum and a punchy bass on "Mint" is a sure way to test your speaker performance. Things get more chilled and pensive with the brooding synth work and rolling pads on "Dusky Downtown". Amberflame's take on "Dusky Downtown" is a steaming affair that uses tight compression and lush synths to create that special euphoric dancefloor moment.

OM 023EP
|
Optimo Music presents the third Golden Teacher EP with another sleeve designed and made by their own hands in a limited edition of 500 copies. Their latest release is a party record -- play it loud, preferably with some lasers and strobes, and LET LOOSE. It's a double A-side release. "Party People" is go-go-a-go-go, while the more electronic-leaning "Love" has been cut at 45 so it can be cunningly played at either speed for extra added value. "Silver Chalice" is an added bonus -- a real jazz-funk gem. Wild party music from Glasgow.

KOM 023EP

"Nice varied six tracker with some live sounding minimal percussion and those falling-down-the-steps kind of filters pads and chord stabs we associate (and love) coming from blokes like Vladislav Delay & Cristian Vogel. There's a house-tempo hip hop track, one that uses what sounds like the Casio home console rhumba preset over some deep pulse, one with this cool record-scratch shift type effect, even one in 3! Pretty progressive stuff from Kompakt, which is saying something far greater..." -- Hrvatski.
