Review: We were quite impressed by Emiel van den Dungen's debut EP as Milio, last year's Afterglow. The Dutch producer is clearly a talent on the rise, with a unique musical vision that embraces the full width and depth of the house spectrum. He begins his latest release on Aformation with 'Alround Player', where guest vocalist Sjengsen does his best Stone Roses-era Ian Brown impression over an attractive blend of shuffling, two-step influenced deep house drums, tricksy acid lines and spacey electronics. 'Ave' is a sci-fi house treat that adds waves of intergalactic electronics and stargazing chords to a chunky bassline and punchy drums, while 'Goenavud' sees van den Dungen join the dots between contemporary tech-house and the rushing, minor key melodies and twisted acid motifs of Brown Album-era Orbital.
Review: Next up on Amsterdam based Atomnation are Tunnelvisions, with their second full-length album for the label. On The Celestial Ritual, the Dutch duo comprised of Emiel van den Dungen and Raynor de Groot deliver 11 unique club tracks that fall into the category of slow grooving and psychedelic house music. Highlights include the emotive electronic soul of "Nalulu's Sand", the deep and magical hypnotism of "Ottakar's Sky" through to the slow burning trippiness of "Khan's Mantra" or the deep tribal meditation of "Imaja's Drum" and its enchanting vocals. An impressive body of work awaits you from this ascendant duo.
