Stockholm's biggest sound
Skudge
drop an immaculate studio mix of their
Phantom
album for CD format. The result is a dramatic listening experience, demonstrating why their music has been so popular with all kinds of deep-minded deejays the world over. The mix includes the unreleased track, "Breaking Strain." Formed in the summer of 2009, the duo have moved out of near anonymity to become precious favorites of deep, warehouse-styled house and techno fans. Their output to date has molded together classic ideas and modern aesthetics with a keen sense of minimalism: their looped soundscapes are often bare, but never lacking, and the intersection between house and techno seems to be the point at which the duo most often find themselves. As a result, that's the area most explored on their debut album,
Phantom
, which conjures up exactly the sort of adjectives you should imagine given its title. It kicks off with eerie chambers of grainy sound, synth melancholy and frosty mists that hang in a beatless air for just over three minutes. From there, the thumping beats swing until the end of the album -- sometimes accompanied by a little trippy sonic color, sometimes devoid of anything but filters, echo and decay, and sometimes paired with cavernous claps, but always with a solid, ground-shaking resonance and, more importantly, a noticeable analog vitality. Although the bold forms Skudge produce are optimized for maximum dancefloor impact, there's also a deftness to their designs: sounds and vocal snippets are subtly, selectively employed to imbue each loop with an extra infectious sense of swing or to underline a groove or accentuate an emotion.

Twirl/Pinkman
Label:

Format:
12"
Price:
$12.50
Catalog #:
SKUDGE PT002EP
MRSK
drops one on Skudge, where stripped, wave-ish sounds build onto each other. "Twirl" goes deep below sea-level, where MRSK trips upon a locked melody with fitting beats. An atmosphere very much needed and appreciated. On the flip, "Pinkman" samples the heartbeat of an even deeper state, where one is allowed to lose themselves. Get a hold of something solid, for this is a track that communicates a lot of subtle changes and honesty.

Bristol-based
October
's new EP for Skudge is one for the warehouse: both in nostalgic and progressive terms. "Push" accelerates and keeps on going until it ends, where a lot of weight is put on keeping the groove. Sparse vocal repetition, used perfectly as a glue for the beat, brings a lot of promise and delivers. "Empire Of Man" is even more of a journey. Where a lot of music seems to focus on function, this track combines both function and style into perfection.
