UKYPG 004EP
|
UKNOWY music is back with a new installment on its more house-leaning Plastic Garment vinyl series. This time the EP title is Midnight Impulse as every track carries the treats of nocturnal life: it's dark, it's fresh, and it's open to all possibilities. Starting with Salomo, you have a delivery of a definite club banger with "Transform" -- devotees of the likes of Kyle Hall or Steven Julien/Funkineven will definitely get their fancy tickled here. Next comes Italian break-beat maestro Sofa Talk with a rhythmically sophisticated yet deep "ALBA", much in the vein of earlier Plastic Garment releases. Munich house duo Rhode & Brown starts the B side with "You & Me" building intricate synth arpeggios over catchy chords. St. Petersburg's very own Dices closes things off with his more dreamy and at the same time incredibly complex and beautiful "See You There" -- a track for the listener or the later hours of the night.

Delakeyz is Swiss producer Melodiesinfonie's moniker when taking a journey into more house-y realms. On this voyage, he explores his musical roots in three percussive-driven belters that still manage to maintain the subtle melodic textures that everybody loves from Melodiesinfonie's work. Manchester's own Contours picks up the more gentle tone of the original in his remix of "Walkingfree" while Moony Me's interpretation of "Our Roots" is a full-fledged club heater.
