BOSC 050-5EP
|
Here you have the second EP part of Minimono Half Way Trough mini saga. Follows the sound of the previous one serving four most exciting electro, Italo-disco, and acid-infected floor-burners. "Run it Back" is a simple and dry tune, has those big cutting edge sounds typical of the early 2000 '80s contaminated electro... perfect for your starting set or in recreating that unique atmosphere. On the A side follows "Half Way Trough", an effortlessly driving tech-acid house tune, strangely compelling, with a timeless feeling... looking like an essential weapon for any dancefloor. B-side starts with the spicy electro-disco tune "Over The Machines" epic and functional at the same time with evocative arpeggios and a mechanical vocoder-ed speech. The EP ends with the cyberfunk stomper "Revolution", a twisted electro funk groover in typical Minimono vein.

BOSC 050EP
|
Bosconi reaches number 50 milestone on its main label catalogue and who better than label founders Mimimono could unfold this. Fabio Della Torre and Ennio Colaci come back on their output with this series of two eps forming a mini album named Half Way Trough with an intriguing blend of modern electro tech house tunes taking to the next level their concept of moving in between styles. The first EP starts with "Accelerate", a UK infected tech house tune with a distinctly aggressive acid bassline in contrast to the clean synths and bleep sounds. The result is a floor burner for your peak-time moments on da floor. "Overflow" is more of an hypnotic swing house tune, with some kind of Arabic melodies, accompanied by subtle bassline reminding of prince of Persia sounding like environments. B side starts with "Discorruption", a tribute from Minimono to the electro Italo-disco sound, still with their own original approach, where all the arpeggios and synths notes are accompanied by a driving bassline and a funky house groove more typical by the Florentine duo. The record ends with the stylish melodic tech house tune "Getting Gold" where Fabio and Ennio show their ability of condensing melodic elements and synths into a dancefloor track for your sugared moments on the floor.

LLFO 006EP

"Minimono delights us once again with two new refreshing tracks. 'Stay Away' is a typical Minimono track, with playful cartoon-like sounds, the aesthetics of minimal and a housy groove. Sounds like fun, huh? In contrast 'El Guapo' could be interpreted as deephouse, but the snappy beats keep your feet moving while the chord-like sounds make you want to close your eyes and just drift away."

TS 037EP
|
Italian duo Minimono make their Tuning Spork vinyl debut with a sunny house groove. The original "Ratman" is bouncy and cheerful, but a bit off-kilter. The lead melody is sung by an actual rodent-human hybrid, and the ambient noise of a crowded room is integrated with house-y vibes. Next up is a more stripped-down version from Zander VT. Hugo's remix is full of his trademark cartoon violence. Finally, Jay Haze offers an understated interpretation with elements of string and flute.
