Format:	12"

Catalog #:	BLKBXXX 002EP

"Lurka finally makes his debut on vinyl after a storming 2010 -- he's enjoyed heavy support from many A-list DJs, including weekly plays by Youngsta and Distance on their Rinse FM shows, leading to the inevitable inclusion of 'Tempted' on Yunx's Rinse CD. Each release in the 'XXX' series on Black Box is a single-sided vinyl, with black labels and sleeves, cut as a 10" on a 12" disc with all the artist & track info etched around the outside by the mastering engineer, and pressed in limited numbers for ultimate collectability."

Title:	Return/Stabiliser
Label:	BOX CLEVER (UK)
Format:	10"
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	BOXCL 005EP

"2011 looks set to be a big year for Lurka. Following the storming success of his debut 'Tempted' on Black Box, he has cooked up something rather special for Box Clever. 'Return' sees Lurka on a deep, tribal tip, building the tune around the solid kick/sub foundation as he slowly adds elements to the mix. First the hats and swooping white noise, next the dark incidental FX, then retro edits and filtered breaks -- a heady combination that leaves the listener transfixed. Lurka keeps the mood meditational with 'Stabiliser', layering tight percussion lines to produce effortless movement. Crisp handclap beats are swarmed by shakers, finger-snaps, and loping bongo-riffs in a masterclass of drumwork execution."
