Reasons EP
Reasons (feat Virginia) - (8:18) 80 BPM
Played by: Michel Quazar
Review: These days Steffi Doms doesn't release that much music, though what she does put out tends to be top-notch. Her first outing of 2020 is indeed a belter, with the three showcased cuts offering a polished, atmospheric and gently intergalactic take on deep house that's as cultured as it is club ready. Regular collaborator Virginia guests on fine opener "Reasons", adding effortlessly evocative vocals to an attractive bed of unfussy house beats, bold analogue bass, sustained chords and spacey synth stabs. "Fallin" is a dreamier and brighter affair rich in skittish machine drums, whistling chords, tactile pads and gentle piano motifs, while closing cut "November" is an ultra-deep chunk of poignant sci-fi house that's as warm and comforting as a much-needed late night hug.

Review: Fresh from mixing the latest instalment of Fabric's mix series, Panorama Bar resident Steffi launches a new sub-label, Dolly Deluxe. Many of the tracks that feature on Fabric 94 also appear across the first four EPs on this offshoot. STFSHD is a new collaborative effort between the label owner and Shed and the fractured break beats and atmospheric textures of "1.0" and "1.5" kick start the new sub-label's first edition, Dollydeluxe1.
Francesco De Bellis is best known for his electronic disco output as Mr Cisco, but as L.u.c.a., he drops the lush ambience of "Echo 1", which is also the opening salvo on the Fabric mix. Working with long-term friend Martyn, Steffi drops the Artificial Intelligence-influenced "No Life on the Surface", while Unbalance closes out the first release with the jittery beats of "Freedom".

You Knew EP
Delve Into - (5:27) 85 BPM
Played by: Paul Mac
Review: It sounds like Basic Soul Unit is following a decidedly US techno tradition on this outing for Steffii's label. The 'deep' mix of the title track unfolds over break beats and a pumping bass, and the dreamy, atmospheric synths have all the sense of wonder of the early Motor City techno of Kevin Saunderson and Octave One. "Delve Into" follows in a similar vein with tough drums giving way to ghostly, enchanting vocals. BSU channels the tougher E-Dancer sound for the 'Bang' version, with the break beats crashing in over the churning bass, while only "Snow Drifts" has a real contemporary flavour thanks to its churning, relentless filtering.
