With his imprints Cécille and 8Bit Records, Nick Curly discovered both SIS and Johnny D., and thus shaped the electronic music scene decisively. The two exclusive tracks on Pujante showcase Nick's diversity and his intuition for groove and soul. "Pujante" is a banging piece of techno that extends over the dancefloor like a shock wave. "New Town Stranger" on the other hand, features a perfect groove and fascinating vocals, just like a story from another time.

Title:	Sun City EP
Label:	COCOON (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	COR 089EP

DJ, producer and label-head Nick Curly's imprints 8 Bit and Cécille Records are guarantees for standard-setting electronic dance music. The three tracks on his Sun City EP are proof of his maturation with a clear orientation towards housier dancefloors. The title track captivates the listener with a subsonically-perfected bass line and a discoid Hi-NRG modulation, whereas the dense dub deepness of "Green Baize" enchants everybody. Finally, "Libero" has rich percussive rhythms that strongly stress the pelvic thrust.

Title:	Critical Mass EP
Label:	MURMUR (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	MUR 006EP

"As the year draws to a close, Murmur deliver a second release from Nick Curly, an artist that has shared as much success of late as the new label. The Critical Mass EP is typical of Curly's sound, with two original tracks that are charged and engaging. This is an EP that gives thought to Nick's musical growth and finds him holding the reigns as one of the best new producers to emerge this year. The B side, 'Kalimba,' is remixed by Geddes, another producer whose talents are being noted. Both A&R and founder of murmur, he is also behind the Rekleiner production project and resident at the renowned Mulletover parties at the forefront of the London techno scene. Geddes' rework adds intensity and weaves in his own distinctive sound, creating a package of fresh and original talent. The dance music world has awoken to Nick Curly in 2008 following a string of releases on his own labels 8Bit and Cecille as well as Supernature and our own murmur. His If You Like EP was murmur's second release, since which the label has gone on to become one of the strongest new imprints to emerge from the current scene. Flirting with house and techno in a time where their boundaries are blurring, Murmur's focus is quality and the support it has received is a testament to their achievement. Next year will see murmur reach onwards and upwards in a fresh direction for the evolving musical age."
