Review: Around the world in 12 wubs; Alix Perez's superlative 1985 continues to dig deeper and deeper into our psyche with the third volume of their faultless Atlas VA series. As always, the tempos are set to flexible as we slide and glide between the style and speeds courtesy of some incredible names... Cesco brings some proper dark UKG on 'Superstealth', Sir Hiss gets angular with the electroid funk of 'Shower Man Time', Visages go all slinky and futurist on 'Margit' while the bossman Perez and GLXY link up for something truly sexy and soulful with 'Green Lane'. All this and so much more, from Rockwell & Scepticz to Settle Down to Eprom, this is yet another exceptional adventure from the 1985 crew.
Review: The Subtle Recordings team have unleashed a serious beast with this next one as they welcome the combined powerhouse prowess of Ebb and Headland, bringing with them two ferocious new pieces of weaponry for all to enjoy. We open up with the slithering bass curls and alarm-like drumlines of 'Ran', a monstrous twist up of guttural steppers energy. On the flip side to this, we then explore 'Tsar' another syncopated epic, fusing unique synthesiser work with vibrant drum displays and a groovy atmosphere to give us a really cool alternative B-side. Both of these are absolute dynamite and are sure to send any dance into a serious frenzy!
