Marvin Dash At Juno Download

Review: The imperious German imprint Workshop Records returns, this time moving away from its tight knit family of artists to welcome Marvin Dash into the fold. Marvin's been around for a minute, with releases on the likes of United States Of Mars, Force Inc and Lowtec's now defunct Out to Lunch dating back to the late 90s. He brings a steady hand to the three productions on offer, with "Track 1" a disco-flecked house roller replete with sparkling synths, twilight keys and cosy, subtle shakers. "Track 2" is the highlight, with crunchy beats offset by rich textures and softly soaring strings. "Track 3" is the real chugger, with moody loops riddled with scuffled Chi-town electronics. As always, utterly essential.
