Review: We are always delighted when a new release comes in on London label Days Of Being Wild. Their latest neon-lit night drive comes courtesy of Philadelphian newcomer Museum Level. Feel the low slung, nu-disco fantasy of "Myst Takes" which is perfect to set the tone in the early evening. More mood music awaits on the slo-mo throb job of "Centaur" but the real star of the show is NYC legend The Juan Maclean, whose rendition of "Sultan Pepper" ventures into late night cosmo/psychedelic boogie down vibes.

Review: Days Of Being Wild is an electronic music label based in London. Following up great releases by the likes of Franz Matthews and Curses, it is now time for Offset aka Philippe Juven - who has previously released on top labels like Coprrespondant and Factor City. We are all over the late night, neon-lit electro house of "Night Drive" which could draw comparisons to Lifelike's output in the late noughties, or as one outlet put it: it's like 'a night drive back to San Junipero circa 1986', too right! There is also the slow burning acid of "Chase" and the brooding yet sexed up EBM vibe of "Wander" which will channel your inner goth just like the first track. Speaking of which, you're in luck: because "Night Drive" gets a Club Bizarre remix that takes the fervent energy of the original to something more balmy and atmospheric - like something you'd hear on the Miami Vice soundtrack.

Review: One half of French electro pop duo Languages, Franz Matthews has struck out on his own here for some funky and uplifting nu-disco shenanigans for London label Days Of Being Wild: the home of slightly deranged electronic music. Their words, not ours! Named after the infamous Berlin train station that's slap bang in the middle of one of Berlin's most prominent clubbing districts, "Ostkreuz" with its hi-NRG undertones slightly reminiscent of Boytronic's "Brilliant". As does "Guns Of Rixdorf" with its enhanced disco vibes channeling greats like Giorgio Moroder or Gino Soccio. The Claydermans Marzahn remix is equally impressive and goes for a stripped back and slow down techno vibe.

Review: Canadian minimal/tech house legend Fairmont is back with the Obsidian EP. As always it's sleek and slinky tech house on the darker and mysterious tip, particularly with the title track with its dark and wonky synths, razor sharp bassline and sombre atmosphere all working in perfect aesthetic harmony. The remix of it by Heretic is much funkier, energetic and uplifting: a high octane groove that's just perfect to transition in to the peak time. Second original track "Onyx" is very epic: after the massive drop there's some killer synth riffs, emotive strings and a tight rhythm that shows us that this is how you make a dark journey track! It's guaranteed for dance-floor mayhem. Finally its a remix by Samuel Berdah which strips things back a lot, creating a much more sombre atmosphere and throws one seriously mesmerising melody over the top which does most of the work and rather well.

Review: Marseille-based Dawan has been plugging away on the margins since 2009, releasing quietly impressive EPs without ever really breaking through. Here, he makes his first appearance on Franz Kirmann and Jerome Bazzanella's long-running Days Of Wild imprint. Opener "Land of None" is something of a druggy, late night treat, with throbbing, EBM-influenced riffs, freaky sirens and industrial textures driving the track forwards. "Home 21" is an altogether creepier proposition, with vintage electronics riding a chugging, Timothy J Fairplay style groove, while title track "Catharthis" is a woozy, deep, faintly threatening, slo-mo chugger right out of the top drawer. Nhar remixes that track, adding some twinkling pianos while giving the whole thing a much dreamier, saucer-eyed feel.

Review: This is only Sworb's third solo release in six years and clearly he favours quality over quantity. The French producer's album is influenced by classic techno sounds - Basic Channel dub; Detroit melodies and in places the skewed minimalism of Baby Ford and DBX - but it is impressive how he manages to put his own stamp on these sources. The scuffled groove of "Bowl Ride" could come from Berlin were it not for its organic drums. Similarly, "C40c" and "Assert" bring an abstract dimension to metallic minimalism. Best of all though are Sworb's interpretations of deep techno. As the pitter-patter broken beats and floaty melodies of "Hardchor" and "Blunt" demonstrate, he is in his own world.
