Artist:	BOXCUTTER & KINNEGO FLUX
Title:	A Familiar Sound
Label:	KINNEGO (IRELAND)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KGO 001EP

2011 repress. "Boxcutter's work, due to its bass-led and rhythmically 2-step nature, is often categorized as dubstep, although in style and idiosyncrasies has more in common with IDM artists such as Squarepusher and μ-Ziq. Together with Kinnego Flux, the Belfast based band/ensemble make funk and soul music with electronics using instruments, vocals, computers and hardware synths and modules. A Familiar Sound flows seamlessly with stabs of sound rolling over each other without ever quite meeting. It's totally unique, and has been blowing minds after it was first heard on Scuba's Electronic Explorations mix. This track is so creative. Props to Boxcutter for fusing smooth R n' B with a deep and dark drop that takes the tune right into the unexpected."

Artist:	SPACE DIMENSION CONTROLLER
Title:	The Love Quadrant
Label:	KINNEGO (IRELAND)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KGO 002EP

"Electronic / dubstep label Kinnego Records started by Boxcutter out of Northern Ireland is back! After the success of the first release (by Boxcutter himself) he introduces the masses to a producer named Space Dimension Controller -- the techno funk alias of 19-year-old Jack Hamill. Following on perfectly from Boxcutter and Kinnego Flux's A Familiar Sound on KGO001, it features 2 tracks of deep, loved-up electro. Equally inspired by both the tape warped soundtrack to Garth Merenghi's Darkplace and early Aphex Twin, Jack's all-analogue production gives his tracks a timeless sound that's a mile away from contemporary electro and house. The beats are low slung and funky, and the melodies are addictive and show a natural flair. On 'The Love Quadrant,' a girl / boy vocal exchange sets the scene while the track builds momentum, before the whole thing spaces off on a sweet mini moog solo. On the flip, 'Electropod-250 Collision' has a deep 808 pulse and flanged bass, topped off with Detroit-inspired melodies and blurred out reverbs."

Artist:	BEAUMONT
Title:	Blush Response
Label:	KINNEGO (IRELAND)
Format:	12"
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	KGO 004EP

7-track debut release by this Scottish producer of "hypnotic R&B dream pop-soundtracks," described by the 20jazzfunkgreats blog as "a stroke of genius and inspiration." "Opening track 'Tokyo' sets the scene, a wistful night-time groove with almost dubstep intentions and layers of subtly building melody. 'Foreign Intrigue' combines chillwave textures with heavy sub-bass and halftime drums into a sweetly composed piece of synth pop, full of Europhile yearning."
