Nico Gomez, Emilia Rey & John Barokskki - "Drops" - (4:50) 136 BPM
Janedge - "Ghostly Riding A Horse" - (6:23) 124 BPM
Review: A split single from French label Infine offers two sublime twists on contemporary bass house. Belgium's Nico Gomez plays it fascinatingly jazzy and subtle in a Nicolas Jaar style on "Drops" - a building vocal track that builds from echoey, double-bass textured beginnings into a galloping romp of ghostly drums. Speaking of ghostly, Janedge's "Ghostly Riding A Horse" uses soft synths and a pared down Balearic bass beat to quickly worm its hazy way into your head.
Review: Mexican producer Cubenx echoes pioneering countryman Murcof in creating dazzling electronica and affecting beats on this latest album, On Your Own Again. The Lone-esque tech-jumble of "Adrift At Sea", the icy and minimal "Lovebirds" and the deep, beatless Animal Collective-recalling "Mist Over The Lake" all stand out, but there's truly unique production and wide-eyed arrangements at every turn on this impressive release.
