Ephemera - (5:50)
137 BPM PUSHMANN & VIL - "Fluxo" (Ben Sims edit) - (4:59) 138 BPM
Review: With releases notched up on Be As One and KMS, Pushmann aka Victor Villa now debuts on Hardgroove. "Hydnum" is powered by tough kicks and clicking percussion but also has a deeply soulful sensibility thanks to the use of a repetitive vocal sample. The sound of the human voice is also audible on "Ephemera", with Pushmann deploying a looped snippet over a dense rhythm and steely, doubled-up claps. On "Huecha", the Spanish producer goes deeper; a mysterious bass is fused with muffled vocals to provide the centre piece for an arrangement that also features rasping percussion. Keeping the release varied throughout, Pushmann also drops a minimal track, "Felleus", whose dramatic percussive twists and turns have echoes of vintage Robert Hood.
