"Slam bring us the third chapter in their devastating Paragraph series, following up their dancefloor destroyer, Hot Knives that was played by the biggest DJs around and dubbed as one of Carl Craig's favourites of the last few months. The label's previous releases have already had big support from the rest of the techno fraternity, including legends Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, Dubfire, Anja Schneider, Len Faki and Francois Kevorkian. Paragraph number 3 delivers some deep, bass-heavy electronic funk on the A-side, with 'One Note Samba.' Grooving from the off-set, the percussive elements of the track wind around a solid and heavy sub bass, introducing dubbed-out horns reminiscent of Slam's Freelance Science days. Hypnotic and tripped out, Slam return to their house roots. On the AA 'Room 2,' dedicated to one of the world's best clubs, Fabric, where Slam hold a residency, keeps with the stripped-down, rhythmic and gritty sound of Paragraph. Whilst constantly fluctuating echoes and delays control the rhythm of the track, a swirling, yet straight to the point synth creates some frenzied and panic-inducing builds throughout, leading to a wholesome and satisfying ride cymbal. 'Room 2' is a killer, peak-time track that will be sure to induce some serious convulsions on dance-floor."

"Slam is Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle. Synonymous with Glasgow's underground club scene and their sound-searching record label, Soma, the duo has garnered a reputation as international DJs, accomplished recording artists and respected collaborators. Together with Resist, Slam is proud to present Nightdrive, their new brand mix project available in 2CD and 3LP. Nightdrive takes in all that is currently hot in the world of deep, glitchy, minimal electronic house and techno, with a distinctively pan-European flavor. Some of the hottest names in the scene come together, including Soma's Glaswegian wonder kid Alex Smoke, Swiss minimal maestro Luciano, Berlin's uber-cool Poker Flat label's Guido Schneider, Canadian genius Mathew Jonson, Parisian demi-gods Blackstrobe, and not forgetting a few choice cuts by Slam themselves. The mix takes a different direction from the tougher techno sound, and provides the perfect soundtrack for -- among other things -- driving!"
