Denis Kostitsyn
Back EP

MUSEK is the new label created by legendary Italian DJ and producer Francesco Farfa and upcoming producer Hamsa.For the first release the two have compiled a Various Artists that sees Farfa himself coming back to the production desk with “Zacido” on the A1, while Hamsa takes over the rest of the vinyl with “Helios”, co-produced with Dan Beaven, on the A2, and with two solos productions, “Chronus” and “Hades” on the flip side side.

A fine reissue of a 1993 techno classic - VIL is back with another superb EP. Pop Panic's People on Earth is an experimental and leftfield take on techno with freewheeling rhythms built from strange sound sources. The Sound Down version of the title track is all silvery synths and loopy tech drums with twanging metal lines and snaking dub bass. 'Pop Panic (Secrets Inside)' then picks up the pace with a heavily layered and tightly interwoven mix of drums, hits and synths that work your bones loose and 'Pop Panic (Suite 999)' goes deeper, darker and more spare.

Thirsty work!Leeds-based long-time friends Kepler & Wickham join forces for the first Thirst release, with four varied and functional house cuts. ‘The Recipe’ kicks things off with a wiggy bassline and plenty of energy, Octa takes things into more melodic territory with a nod to classic deep house. The B side starts in hypnotic fashion with the golden-era UK tech house influenced ‘Represent’, before the closing future classic ‘Free Your Mind (Deep Mix)’ wraps the package up nicely. Something classy for all occasions.

N-Gynn drops the second release on his and Thoma Bulwer’s Classique label with four undeniable bombs in his vintage style with a modern twist. Acido is on a classic house tip with sexy female vocals that will get you up, out and dancing with all your best moves, shakes and cheeky smiles. Bandido is on a similarly vibe with deep chords and bumpy house groove to boot! Red-E is more on a deeper techno tip and will take you into new cosmic plains, while PH Neutral will put you straight back into hazy Hackney Wick minimal states of consciouses.
