Artist:	PERC
Title:	Strangeways EP
Label:	BARBARELLA MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	BARBA 005EP

"Alistair Wells aka Perc takes a break from his successful Perc Trax label to serve up a 3-track EP on Barbarella Music, following his remix of Rob Acid's 'Stars.' Recent Perc releases such as Splashy and the Razor EP have been supported by Michael Mayer, James Holden, Slam, Ozgur Can, Nathan Fake, Jesse Somfay, Marc Ashken and Avus. The opening track 'Strangeways' is one of Perc's finest productions to date with a slow, shuffling electronic groove underpinned by a huge bass line. This leads to a jaw-dropping breakdown built around a floor-destroying bass attack. On the B-side 'Yeah' fuses together minimal techno with the London fidget house sound to create something unique. Again, a heavy bassline plays a large part in this track, as does an unforgettable vocal drop."

Title:	Serious Moonlight/Cylinder Swing
Label:	CLR (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	CLR 021EP

"After his latest work on Kompakt Extra and for the Swedish Drumcode label, Perc is back with two powerful tracks that fits CLR's profile! 'Serious Moonlight' on the A-side is a veritable stomping tune with a stoic bass drum that dies away in the break, just to keep marching in its original splendor afterward. Excellent and efficient. 'Cylinder Swing' on the B-side builds in a similar way, but instead of culminating with its wall of sound into a climax, Perc always reduces the tension, to instantly 'swing around the corner' with different sounds."

Title:	Antifunk/Purple
Label:	CLR (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	CLR 040EP

Perc presents a memorable record for CLR. While "Antifunk" is straightforward techno, characterized by Perc's ceaseless sonic experimentation, "Purple" basically breaks with everything heard on CLR before. But even though the beat pattern is unconventional, and even though he uses all kinds of influences from different musical styles, Perc never loses sight of the dancefloor. With this record, CLR releases its first broken beat track and heralds a new, slightly more experimental phase in the musical history of the label.
