Review: Celebrating their tenth anniversaries, Mord and RYC deliver this superb compilation. Given the depth and breadth of their collective experience, this collection spans a range of sounds and styles. At the deeper end of the spectrum, there's the wonderful 90s melodies of Ritzi Lee's "Neutropia" and Amotik's "Laal", where hypnotic, Sleeparchive-esque tones bubble up over a stripped back groove. On a break beat tip, Uvb's "Mortifere" is a dense, mesmerising club track, while Brendon Moeller's "Hot Pursuit" resounds to a clanging, steely rhythm. The compilation has no shortage of club tracks either: there's the all-encompassing tonal builds of Bas Mooy's "Vedette", Kaiser's coruscating minimalism on "Disciplined Soldiers" and the gloomy industrial breaks of Orphx's "Slipping Through My Fingers".
Review: Brendon Moeller has released before on the Ann Aimee offshoot, but this time he lands on the Delsin mothership with an EP that spans a range of styles. "Poly Mod" is a lively, abstract affair, with Moeller layering dubby chords over a tingling rhythm and a cavernous bass, while on "Route", he teases out a more understated version of this sound. The title track sees Moeller pivot towards the dance floor, with a groove that's powered by steely drums and swirling filters, while on "Refrigeration", he goes deeper, deploying a muddy bass to guide the listener through a nocturnal soundscape. The ticking percussion and repetitive tones of "Motor" and "Invocation For Station Q" round off this fine release.
