Review: While Markus Homm and Mihai Popoviciu have also contributed to the series, the majority of Bondage Music's 'Deep Value' compilations have been curated by label founder Pornbugs. He's back at the helm on volume seven, a 17-track trawl through the label's back catalogue bundled with a mixed version created by the artist himself. In keeping with the label's output, what's on offer is a great selection of unmixed, DJ-friendly deep tech-house excursions full to bursting with tactile grooves, warming basslines, hypnotic beats and dreamy early morning motifs. Highlights include (but are in no way limited to) the rubbery excellence of 'Quantum' by Frink, the yearning, sunrise-ready shimmer of 'No Fly Zone' by Sarap Ozaydin, and the trippy, sub-heavy brilliance of Arkady Antsyrev's 'Spin'.
Review: Leipzig's Bondage Music returns with a massive compilation featuring 20 tracks, all in the label's distinct style of deep and sensual tech house. If that was not enough, the label bosses Sven & Sven aka Pornbugs deliver a continous mix, working those selections to perfection on each of their journeys. Highlights are not limited to: Mihai Popoviciu and NTFO delivering some rolling and hypnotic 'Rominimal' vibes on "Gazoo" and "Key Part" respectively, London's James Dexter delivering a typically emotive afterhours minimal groove on "Come In" while Pornbugs themselves serve up the slinky "Precocious Life" before the return of Swiss scene stalwart Dachshund on "Instant".
