Unwilling To Change - (6:47) 130 BPM
Nasa Is Sweating (feat Theo Nasa) - (6:13) 129 BPM
Review: Hot on the heels of releases for Drumcode and Noir, Ramiro Lopez brings his distinctive party sound to Suara. This EP gets off to a flying start with the eerie organs and rolling drums of "Ben Ben". Within this framework, Lopez includes some looped vocal samples that add to the track's rousing nature. On "Universe", he ups the intensity levels as rave riffs dive bomb in and out of a stomping rhythm. "Unwilling To Change" offers euphoric abandon, but this time via a different path, with a grainy bass underpinning a wild, shuffling rhythm and percussive bursts. Last but by no means least are the moody, pitched down vocals and dramatic drops of "Nasa Is Sweating".

That's Not Happening - (7:27) 124 BPM Hot
Requiem For The Crazyness - (7:18) 123 BPM
Donga - (6:59) 124 BPM
Tolio - (6:27) 124 BPM
Review: With the likes of Dave Angel on it's books, John Digweed's Bedrock label is known more for the tech side of tech-house, so new additions Coyu and Ramiro Lopez fit right at home. Having said that, they do touch on a variety of styles over the course of the four tracks here including the hissy thump of the title track, the eerie, Popof-esque "Requiem For The Crazyness" and the sparse and raw voodoo-tech of EP winner "Tolio".

Be High EP
Be High (original mix) - (7:15) 124 BPM Hot
Cool People (original mix) - (7:15) 124 BPM
Dodasch (original) - (7:21) 124 BPM
In Your Face (original mix) - (7:55) 123 BPM
Played by: Miguel Lobo
Review: It sounds like Yousef's label has a summer hit on its hands. In its original format, "Be High" sees lush disco strings unfold over robust tribal beats and an insistent groove. It's straightforward, but seductive and highly catchy. "Cool People" is based on a similar backing track, but the duo replace musical elements with a ponderous vocal and a rumbling bass, while a similar aesthetic applies on the tribal house and buzzing licks of "Dodasch". Finally, the balance shifts back towards the musical on "In Your Face". While less catchy than the title track, its dreamy techno chords provide a melodic backdrop for the tough tribal beats.

Make 'Em Clap EP
Make 'Em Clap - (6:55) 125 BPM
Techno Raw - (6:57) 125 BPM Hot
Played by: ATFC, Coyu
Review: Coyu and Lopez deliver killer tech-house for this Noir offshoot label. The title track is a rolling, bass-heavy groove; the sub-bass sounds malevolent as it underscores building chord sweeps and a stuttering, Chicago-style vocal stutter imploring the listener to 'make em clap'. It sounds like a combination of the darkest excesses of tribal house and Ron Hardy-style warehouse sleaze. As its name suggests, "Techno Raw" follows a similar trajectory, but here the sound is even heavier and the tempo higher. Rhythms roll in and provide the backdrop against which Lopez and Coyu drop a series of stomach-churning chord sequences and breakdowns.

Timba EP
Timba - (6:51) 123 BPM Hot
Coming Hard - (7:45) 124 BPM
Letters From The Other Side - (8:28) 123 BPM
Timba (dub mix) - (6:51) 123 BPM
You Know - (6:30) 123 BPM
Played by: Jakal, Resident Advisor
Review: Miguel Lobo is yet to fly solo on a release and this time hooks up with Spanish producer Ramiro Lopez for the Timba EP. Sultry female vocals and sexual groans of "Coming Hard" make for seven minutes of sleazy tech house, equalled by the woofing bass, tickled pads, tribal percussion and male vocals of "You Know". Clever sampling and improvisational jazz keys from "Letters From The Other Side" keeps things tropically cool; one for the poolside DJs. The EPs title track "Timba" is reminiscent of Daniel Steinberg's 2009 works for Supdub and Front Room Recordings. Timba also receives a "dub mix" - Miguel Lobo & Ramiro Lopez slightly boosts the originals low end and adds some new horns during and after the break down.
