Review: Even a cursory glance at the track listing for any of Simian Mobile Disco's mixes will show that the UK duo remain hard-wired to electronic music's various nuances. This is also audible on "Distance..." the single from their forthcoming album, Welcome to Sideways. Bleary chords and euphoria-soaked melodies unravel over a lopsided house groove that bathes in Balearic positivity. The choice of remixer is also inspired and they have tapped Lena Willikens, one of Europe's most adventurous DJs. In her hands, "Far Away..." is turned into a twitchy, jittery affair, replete with insistent claps and wired, weird sounds designed to cause mayhem in sweaty basements.

Review: Jas Shaw from Simian Mobile Disco goes solo, but you just know he's more than capable of crafting some great music on his own, just fine. "Love Doubled" is a delightfully dreamy track with a mesmerising melody that rings out above intricate layers of rhythm programming and trippy tape delays. Next up is "It's Not The Clock That Tells The Time" which is very reminiscent of Shaw's previous work; an infectious late night tech house trip whose catchy melodics distract you from the dark bassline and tough beat. Finally "To Mock A Killingbird" is just as twisted as the titular wordplay; a dark afterhours jam with rusty rhythm programming and dark tunnelling pads, giving way to more hypnotic synth leads and tempting you into the abyss.

Review: Simian Mobile Disco's most recent album, Whorl, did a good job in repositioning them as makers of curious leftfield techno, more interested in krautrock and IDM influences than the riotous electro and radio-friendly pop with which they were once known. The three tracks that make up Wheels Within Wheels were recorded at the same time - using a similar modular synthesizer-heavy set-up - but eschew the restless pulse of their dancefloor material in favour of slowly unfurling, beatless excursions. There's a fluid feel throughout, with the Reichian loops of the title track and shimmering chords of "Rectangule" hitting home hardest. It is, though, all very good.

Review: The latest course in the current banquet of Delicacies from Simian Mobile Disco may yet be the sweetest, no mean feat when previous editions have featured collaborations with Bicep and Cosmin TRG. Mainlining into Frankfurt's rich house and techno heritage, Jas and James have teamed up with the don Roman Flugel for the exquisite Hachinoko/Ikizukuri single. Yes the titular theme for strange food remains (Google them!) and yes the high standard of music quality remains. Lead cut "Hachinoko" keeps the rhythms minimal, allowing the ear bending glowing synths prominence until a final third where the pressure is ramped up. "Ikizukuri" begins a bit grubbier and weirder, but the trio gradually tease out some wonderfully colourful tones - you can imagine this one causing smiles on the dancefloor for sure.

Review: Following that excellent Bicep collaboration, Simian Mobile Disco join forces with Cosmin TRG for the latest release on their Delicacies label. On paper the two parties make logical collaborators thanks to their love of minimal textures and subtle melody, and in execution the results are a resounding success; "Surstromming" sees those rubbery acidic basslines SMD are famous for take a pulsating approach, throbbing its way through subtle dub chords and a robust 4/4 rhythm. "Sannakji" meanwhile is a considerably trippier affair, combining a taut arpeggio with well placed moments of ecstatic chord release. Two tracks sure to cause maximum warehouse devastation!

Review: Making for a logical pairing, SMD and Bicep lock arms in an uplifting and bouncy jaunt through acidic basslines and emotive pads. Knowing how to cut the airy-fairy-ness and rip into a rock solid groove is a trait both parties are only too familiar with, and as such "Sacrifice" should be heard rocking out large-scale raves all over the shop with a considerable hit rate. Interestingly, the collaboration has given rise to not one but two separate ambient versions that make for a nice counterpoint to the main-room-baiting original mix, letting those fluffy elements waft out in blissful abandon.

Review: Northern Irish duo Psycatron scored a big hit this year with their collaboration with Paul Woolford and this release looks set to follow suit. In its original format, "Nvrsaynvr" is a bass-heavy, big room techno number, with a resonating vocal from the Pubahs addressing such issues as gender identity and substance abuse. If that weren't enough, it also contains a French Kiss-style riff that builds it up further. Dave Clarke and Mr Jones's version as Unsubscribe brings the original into a ravey direction, with wild siren riffs and a tearing bassline adding to the tension, while Simian Mobile Disco drop two takes that focus on jacking rhythms and bleepy bass tones.
