MEANDYOU 004EP
|
"Featuring four close affiliates: vintage Even Tuell, from Workshop; some dark, slowly building Sul; the Belgian producer Sensu, making his recording debut with some paranoid, trippy lo-fi; and Fabric, from Mego and Spectrum Spools, back on Meandyou with some dubwise cut-and-thrust."

MEANDYOU 003EP
|
"Herron's first solo release, after the success of two VA's, a 40 min tape on his own meandyou. label and more recently a VA with Workshop, Herron now produces a five track ep which shifts between his lo-fi alternative take on the multiple genres of modern club music. The A side begins with a trippier disco-edit style jam dismantling the house to a soft and delicate sunrise dance. The B side takes things to a more cramped place, pushing its way through a dark dubby techno interlude with Minor Hazard followed by Force of Habit which feels a little more chaotic until finally Venture lays the ep to rest in the night garden."

MEANDYOU 002EP
|
"Bells Jam is stand-and-deliver improvisation, alive and rocking, with minimal editing; Split Guest is dense, multi-faceted, hypnotic music by Matthew Mullane, from Princeton, NJ, and Spectrum Spools; label co-founder Sam Lewis aka Herron returns with the time-shifting rhythmic complexity of 33 Weeks; Nick Lapien from Sequencias and Field Records makes a long ascent as Metropolis."

MEANDYOU 001EP
|
"An imperious opening gambit from the Manchester collective's new label: a multi-pronged, vigorous, top-notch, house-techno showcase. The EP chugs straight off to the dance-floor, courtesy of the Juniper duo at its darkest yet (after sides for Ominira, Underground Quality, and Smallville), with jamming, filtered synths, echoing claps and vocals, and a B-line stealth attack. A regular at Meandyou club nights, Sul makes his recording debut here with a craftily delinquent and unhinged synth-pop gone quite wrong. True to form, none other than Kassem Mosse - who played a night back in 2009 - turns in an instant classic, audacious and grimy; before collective mainstay Heron rounds up proceedings with some deep 'n' bleak, spectral techno, bathed in best Basic Channel traditions."
