Review: Long-time producer Vince Watson releases a sorted selection of his music remixed by Joris Voorn, DJ Rolando, Funk D'Void and Psycatron via his own Bio imprint, with impressive results. The opening bars of Joris Voorn's remix to "Intuition" sound dangerously close to a sped up version of the Rolling Stones "Sympathy For The Devil", only to be blanketed by light piano chords, sharp claps, ringing chimes and a synthesised bassline. Irish duo Psycatron roll out a more techno inclined take on Watson's 2011 "Pressure", which burrows deeper underground by the beat, only to surface to a shower of plucked strings and spiralling synths. DJ Rolando's mix of "Sequential" is by far rawest mix of the release, while Funk D'Void teeters on the edge of trance with his remix to "A Very Different World", but grounds everything with a solid, twisting bassline.

Review: Vince Watson launches his new label with the beautiful "Love in F Minor". The deep, jazzy broken beat of the title track is set to lead the way for an imprint that will release music of a similar ilk. The intro mix adds a wonderful hazy dream-like quality before the club mix quickens the pace and adds the oomph.

Nautilus Rising
Vince Watson - "Subculture Story" - (6:32) 121 BPM Hot
Stephen Lopkin - "Farewell G41" - (6:35) 125 BPM
Lord Of The Isles - "XIT" - (7:10) 125 BPM
Alex Smoke - "Straits" - (6:09) 126 BPM
Review: The Sub Club has played such an important role in the development of UK electronic music that it is surprising it took it so long to have a label arm. Still, Nautilus Rising is testament to being better late than never, and this inaugural release, an all-Scottish affair, covers the kind of soulful house and techno that the 'Subbie' has been long associated with. Alex Smoke's "Straits" revolves around loose tribal drums and ponderous synths, before veering off into an acid-heavy segue. Lord of the Isle's contribution follows a similar trajectory, albeit with a tapestry of brooding bass and synths underscoring the arrangement. Stephen Lopkin represents the new breed of Scottish producer and his "Farewell G41" is all crashing snares and 606 drums. Vince Watson, one of the artists who has been active since the club's inception, rounds out this excellent release with "Subculture Story", a spacey, string-laden affair, atmospheric and melodic, but underpinned by a strong kick.

Variable Slope - (8:49) 125 BPM
Review: The rise of the titans right here! The two biggest hi-tech soul merchants from the United Kingdom team up here on Spanish imprint Suara, for some epic and futurist dancefloor drama on "Rise". Strict rhythms accompany layer upon layer of warm emotive pads and soaring synth leads - as you'd expect from the duo. Their further homage to Detroit (via Glasgow and London) continues on second original offering "Variable Slope" which brings the funk with its bleepy bassline and killer groove for a life affirming dancefloor journey. There's a couple of killer remixes too. French sonic wizardry from the one and only Voiski: who leivers a scorching rendition, plus a lovely neon-lit classic house perspective from the controversial Marquis Hawkes . If that was not enough, a sombre, deep electro re-take on the aforementioned "Rise" by Leipzig's Lake People caters to a more downbeat moment.

Speaker Freaker/L'Obscure Objet Du Desir
Vince Watson - "Speaker Freaker" - (6:53) 123 BPM Hot
Frank Lorber - "L'obscure Objet Du Desir" - (7:12) 126 BPM
Review: Sven Vath's Frankfurt based powerhouse Cocoon returns with two legends serving up some surefire anthems to close out this year with a big bang. Scottish hi-tech soul merchant Vince Watson appears first with the emotive and elevating "Speaker Freaker", which sees this veteran producer serve up something much more accessible than what fans would be used to, but fantastic all the same. Next up Frankfurter Frank Lorber appears and although usually more known for his tech house stylings, here he takes a cue from fellow homeboys Lauer and Gerd Janson on the retro feelgood vibes of "L'obscure Objet Du Desir".

Review: Vince Watson's newest album, Hope - the Extended Edition, goes on to say that it marks a departure from his recent house and techno ventures, offering 11 new versions of the LP originally commissioned for The New York Times' Outlaw Ocean series in 2018. Not bad eh. Featuring never-before-heard variations and instrumentals, this release stands as one of Watson's most accomplished musical endeavors yet. With a predominant focus on piano and strings that seamlessly blend neo-classical and electronic elements, Hope turns in some seriously heavenly orchestration and programming. The album's underlying message of unity and hope resonates even more strongly now, making it a poignant and timely addition to Watson's repertoire.

Review: After a two-decade hiatus since his seminal Moments In Time album, Vince Watson triumphantly returns with Another Moment In Time. A journey back to his early works, high notes of nostalgia are showcased through Watson's trademark piano chords and ability to reach such melancholic depths. Tracks like the acid-infused opener and vibrant "Flashback" make the highlight reel here next to "Peace Of Mind" that was co-written with Underground Resistance's Jon Dixon (high-tech jazz). "Lost In the Deep" adds a unique Detroit twist with its bent chords and loose grooves, while "Whispers" delves into something deeper still. "Forever" and "Make A Wish" chalk up two more irresistible club cuts before the album gracefully concludes with the peaceful serenity of "Sleep".

Review: Vince Watson has commissioned a stellar line-up of producers to remix tracks from his DnA series. Carl Craig's take on "Holographic" bubbles with atmospheric synths, while fellow Motor City artist Jon Dixon drops a dubbed out take on "(Re)Evolution". Watson's "Second Wave" is the subject of a number of interpretations - Steve Rachmad drops a tough, linear version; John Beltran's 'Pan Am' take sees him inject the track with breathy synths and gentle back beats, while Stephan Lopkin's reshape echoes classic Detroit techno, led by a snaking bass and widescreen melodies. The fact that Watson has teased an electro remix of "Universal Language" from Claude Young and Shawn Rudiman's wide-eyed take on "Metamorphosis" make this collection all the more impressive.

DnA [re]Sequenced Sampler
Universal Language (Decoded mix) - (6:45) 126 BPM Hot
First Wave (808 mix) - (5:37) 130 BPM
Fourth Wave (Deep Space mix) - (6:40) 130 BPM
Review: British techno veteran Vince Watson, a producer whose output is uniformly melodious and infused with Detroit style sci-fi intent, has decided to "re-sequence" is his 2019 album DnA. In practice, that means he's remixed - and in some cases, re-made - the entire set. This sampler is naturally packed with gorgeous, life-affirming treats, starting with the 'Decoded mix' of 'Universal Language', where shimmering synth sounds and effortlessly emotive chords ride a delicious analogue bassline and smooth, late '90s tech-house drums. 'First Wave (808 Mix)' brilliantly joins the dots between squelchy electro and Motor City techno futurism, while 'Fourth Wave (Deep Space Mix)' is a fittingly titled deep techno number that's almost breath-taking in its emotiveness.

Make A Wish/Forever
Make A Wish - (8:55) 125 BPM
Forever - (7:17) 125 BPM Hot
Review: Analogue house and techno legend Vince Watson cuts and clears two new gems for his Everysoul label. This Make A Wish / Forever single follows last year's remix package that saw Joe Clausell, Steve Bug & Langenberg, Manoo and Osunlade remix two cuts from Watson's Via album (2018). In this case, the trance-like analogue warmth of "Make A Wish" stems directly from the same studio session as Watson's "Teardrops" that was released on Sacred Rhythm, while the Detroitisms and pure deep house feel of "Forever" was originally a studio jam that made it into Watson's live shows pre-covid. With lockdown now in place, and some time to polish things up, Watson delivers two fresh cuts of upbeat and jazzy house, funky 909 drums and classic acid basslines.

Review: Two years on from the release of Vice Watson's eighth studio album, Via, some of the key cuts have been given the remix treatment. First up Joe Claussell gets his hands on 'Progress', re-framing the tech-soul treat and a rich, piano-laden whizz through spiritual deep house territory that rises, falls and rises again for 11 mesmerizing minutes. Osunlade offers an even brighter, breezier and more piano-laden take on the same track, before Steve Bug and Largenberg join the dots between smooth tech-house hypnotism and immersive deep house on a luscious interpretation of 'Via'. Finally, Manoo has his wicked way with 'Progress', delivering an awesomely emotive and life-affirming deep house re-wire that will almost certainly make the hairs on the back of your neck leap to attention.

Review: DnA (Deluxe Edition) is Vince Watson's most ambitious project to date. Comprising close to 20 tracks, it sees him give full vent to his vision for electronic music. Moving between atmospheric ambient pieces such as "Influences" and "(Re)Evolution (A Vision)" at one end of the spectrum and steely, techy dance floor tracks like "Immersion" and "Third Wave" at the other, the album also shows definitively, that when ti comes to deep house an techno, he has few rivals. Shining examples of this craft are audible in the form of the jazzy piano keys on "Affinity" and the soaring, string-led "Universal" and "Second Wave", which make for spellbinding, sublime techno tracks.

DnA (EP 2)
Holographic - (7:49) 127 BPM
Immersion - (8:15) 126 BPM Hot
Hart | Soul - (7:59) 121 BPM
Review: Vince Watson has dedicated over twenty years to making his own unique take on musical Detroit techno - and the DnA series are among the most articulate expressions of this passion. This second EP is a taster for a full double album to be released later in 2019 - and based on this EP, it sounds like it will be worth waiting for. "Holographic" sees Watson drop an atmospheric building groove, like his own version of Carl Craig's circa Landcruising. "Immersion" is lighter and uplifting, taking its cue from the more melodic end of the UR canon, while "Hart - Soul" represents a more house-based interpretation, with the storied Scottish producer riding dreamy filtered melodies to the cosmos and back.

Review: Vince Watson returns after last year's Via album with this fine release. This four-tracker underlines the development of his music, which now sits somewhere between its deep techno origins and a more clubby tech-house style. This is audible on "First Wave", where he merges sensuous synths with a pulsating, quivering bass, while on "Second Wave", the airy strings that have long been Watson's stock in trade are fused with a throbbing low end and rickety drums. However, "Affinity" sees him head back down a deeper, more purist route, and is redolent of his work around Moments in Time. There's also diversity on offer, with the sensuous ambience of "Let Dreamers Dream (Daydream)" rounding off this excellent EP.
