Artist: HRK
Title: System Error
Label: JOINT (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: JOINT 001EP
"HRK is Haruka, a seventeen year old Japanese female singer, who is just breaking into the Japanese 'Pop' scene. Her producers approached Third Ear to find three 'cool' remixers from outside Japan, to each produce a 12". No original version of the tracks will be released, only a strictly limited edition remix with full vocal and instrumental versions. Only 1000 copies of each 12 are being produced. First up is Thomas Fehlmann with 'System Error' (JOINT A:001), a pumping dubby techno remix. The track is a classic Thomas Fehlmann dancefloor record: grooving, sunny, trippy, feel-good electronic music that is guaranteed to put a smile on the face of the most jaded clubber. Thomas draws directly on reggae dancehall for his dub sensibilities. Thomas Fehlmann's dubs are always sweet, light, and soulful, but with plenty of kick. Haruka's plaintive voice sits in the track perfectly, making an intriguing instrument in the mix. Whether the listener understands the Japanese lyric or not, the cadences of the voice over all three of the 12s draws the listener in."


Artist: HRK
Title: Break My Code
Label: JOINT (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: JOINT 003EP
"Finally, comes Thomas Brinkmann's remix of 'Break My Code'. What can we say? Thomas Brinkmann demonstrates why he is so highly regarded. Original, Soulful, Humorous, Mesmeric. The 'Lipstick' remix (the instrumental mix) will be a dancefloor sensation -- slow burning, sexy, funky, a killer track."


Artist: 6TH SENSE
Title: Paradise (Afronaught & Hiroshi Watana.be Mixes)
Label: JOINT (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: JOINT 004EP
"A super new 12" from the Joint label containing remixes of the group 6th Sense, who float around the nu soul scene while giving eighties flavours via some sweet Sade'esque vocals. First up the big deal. Orin Walters comes with a made rare Afronaught remix that is Bugz In The Attic in full effect. Phasing in and out of pure melodious broken beat funk then dropping into digital bass and sparse stab effects it's a bomb up there with the recent Macy Gray rework. Two versions from Hiroshi Watana.be aka Tread aka Kaito delve deep into Detroit house lushness like Truby Trio meeting Moodymann. Two versions (vocal/inst dub) with deep keyboard sounds, crisp percussive drops, funked bass, jazzfunk drums and moogy pimp keys. All housed in a full on Designers Republic colour splash sleeve."
