Artist:	EPROM
Title:	Feldspar/Psycho
Label:	LEISURE SYSTEM (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	LSR 002EP

The Leisure System collective from Berlin presents the second release from their newly-founded label. Responsible for the bass assault this time is San Francisco-based producer Eprom. After releases on labels like Warp and Rwina, and with one of the biggest tunes of 2010 ("Shoplifter"), Eprom graces Leisure System with nothing less than full peak-time anthems. "Feldspar" is like a 140 bpm wrecking ball, purpose-built for rewinds and dancefloor freak-outs. "Psycho" brings the speed down, but keeps up with the raw energy.

Title:	Humanoid
Label:	RWINA (NETHERLANDS)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	RWINA 006EP

"We want to do quality, interesting, electronic music here at Rwina. We're not trying to bring you some stuff aimed solely at fitting into 'the scene' -- no, we like beats, bass, synths, stuff that can mess with your head as well as move your feet. So bearing that in mind, we're proud to present Eprom, fresh out of San Francisco. 'Humanoid' takes stepping beats in a Mala-gone-ATL vibe, and marries them to lazer-guided, pitch-switching, neon synth lines that contract and expand, breathing their way through the track and re-programming the dance floor into a blur of hypercolour. The classic vocal sample reminds us how far we've come from the days of acid house, yet how much remains the same -- people still want to hear amazing noises put together in a way that makes them dance. 'The Slaughter' takes the mid-tempo West Coast sound and runs with it. Glowing synth lines harmonize like the work of acid-loving robots over swaggering beats and moody, almost RZA-esque atmospherics, building intensity throughout the track. Finally, 'Lick Out' sounds like the kind of music Drexciya might have made if their underwater civilization was based around the Bay Area's hyphy scene. The whole track is dripping wet, an exploration into a future world of aquatic crunk that defies categorization. Rwina is proud, but not surprised, to note that this release is being supported by the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs, Jakes, Starkey, The Gaslamp Killer and Slugabed."

Metahuman is the name of Eprom's debut album for Rwina, and ahead of its release comes "Regis Chillbin," a two-track single featuring a remix by Machinedrum. "Regis Chillbin" is hip-hop for the year 2050. A centerpiece of Eprom's live sets, this track is pure, unadulterated dancefloor fun. Machinedrum's remix leaves the core rhythmic backbone intact and uses it to build his own delirious dancefloor workout. With support from Gaslamp Killer, SBTRKT, Flying Lotus, Danny Breaks and more.

Title:	Never
Label:	SUREFIRE SOUND
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	SFS 001EP

"San Francisco, CA's Surefire Sound starts off the new decade with a bang and launches their brand new label with an energetic single by Eprom. A fast rising West Coast bass technician, DJ and producer, Sander Dennis, aka Eprom, delivers funky, techy four-four beats on 'Never.' Eprom's original mix opens with rattling hi-hats and a hushed female vocal accented by Eprom's patented twitchy synths. A hefty kick drops, braced by a thick, bouncy mid-range bass pattern. Like recent tracks by Untold or Ramadanman, 'Never' blurs the divisions between dubstep, funky, techno and garage to form an irresistible new creation. Hyped newcomer FaltyDL had a breakthrough year in 2009. The New Yorker introduced his versatile, soulful electronic styles on a slew of singles for Planet Mu and Ramp. His Rephresh mix is a moody, shuffling reconstruction that features echoing samples, an infectious start/stop rhythm and mighty bass sweeps. DL's mix is built for maximum club pressure. About Surefire Sound: Surefire Sound is a new record label presented by the Surefire music group whose goal is to showcase upcoming and established talent in electronic music. The label is part of a collection of projects under the Surefire banner including a booking agency, PR firm, and events management division. The releases promise an array of sounds spanning genres, appealing to home listeners and dancefloors alike."
