Artist:	AARDVARCK
Title:	Choice
Label:	EAT CONCRETE (NETHERLANDS)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	EAT 018CD

Into his 25th year as a DJ, Dutch producer Aardvarck comes with his second full-length album for Eat Concrete Records -- much in the vein of his Bloom series, but in an album context with songs and lush inter-noodley bits. With Choice, Aardvarck has created one of his finest selections to date. Offering 22 tracks that go in all different directions, Aardvarck has become known for bass-heavy dub, lush soundscapes, broken beats and soul vocals. The album is introduced by Gaslamp Killer, kicks off with the beautiful "Lucky Shot," featuring female vocals by Alexandra, and continues with some cinematic and hypnotizing ambient-esque pieces before the bass kicks in with "Breaking Bad." From then onward, you are treated with songs reminiscent of some of the recent Bloom releases, displaying a taste for heavy bass, beats and dub samples. Yet Choice has more to offer than DJ-food alone; the album flows like a mix and keeps a light and fresh vibe along the way with lots of sketches and interludes. Aardvarck also offers some definite classics with "Heal" and "Find The Cow..Almost," featuring guest vocals on both tracks. Timeless.

Title:	Anti Concept
Label:	EAT CONCRETE (NETHERLANDS)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	EAT 026CD

Aardvarck returns with his third full-length album for Eat Concrete Records. Anti Concept showcases a taste for deep ambient and minimalist soundscapes, dub, Detroit techno and bass-heavy beats, mixed into a perfect flow. As the title suggests, Anti Concept leaves aside musical genres and focuses on atmosphere rather than style. Aardvarck carefully and patiently builds his own world of sound, adding layers and complexity with each track, sampling favorite artists such as Jon Hassel, Fennesz, Talk Talk and the odd dub 45 along the way. These 27 tracks bring mostly new material but also contain some of his earlier works on previous Eat Concrete and Bloom releases, highlighting some of his most impressive output.

Title:	Nosestep EP
Label:	RUSH HOUR (NETHERLANDS)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	RH DC5-EP

Rush Hour released Aardvarck's "Nosestep" as part of his Well Well Well EP in the summer of 2007. Now the label re-releases it with a new version by Cosmin TRG, who transformed it into a strong acidic stepper, 2010 style. On the B-side there is an unreleased Nubian Mindz remix from Aardvarck's Spoken release from 2001. Rush Hour didn't release it at the time, but with the whole new future house movement, the timing couldn't be more perfect.
