Review: For the first Magic Feet single of 2015, label boss Craig Bratley has decided to showcase the work of two relatively little-known producers; Correspondant contributor Paresse, and Clouded Vision associate Markus Gibb. The former kicks things off with "Nada", a stylish Italo chugger that makes great use of reverb, delay, foreboding electronics and sparkling synthesizers. The Swedish producer also offers up "Little Wanderer", a surprisingly grandiose chunk of fluttering Balearic disco. Gibb flips the script a little on "Prey", a slightly dark, post-punk influenced chugger blessed with fuzzy, atmospheric guitars, before rounding things off with the moody, mid-tempo rave revivalism-meets-new wave throb of "Whistler" (which, incidentally, does feature whistling).

Review: Although acclaimed Balearic-style UK producer Craig Bratley has just dropped his Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride LP on Tsuba, here he's all the about the edits - delivering his own respliced version of Beans & Co's "The Go Go". It's an absolute gem too: all escalating arpeggiated bleeps over a slow, menacing electro-house throb. Great to see a much loved cut from his sets finally getting an official release.

Review: Craig Bratley's Magic Feet label has been putting out some pretty impressive Balearic mood bombs for a good few years now, and here's the evidence, its first label compilation. We don't know if the title, Now That's Magic", is an obscure nod to Paul Daniels or not, but there's no smoke and mirrors with the array of artists collected here. Highlights include Rich Lane's doomy take on new beat classic "Flesh", Dark Strand's Bobby-O-on-downers gem, "Return Of The Oscillator and Antoni Maiovi's killer sleazy electro disco jack-a-thon, "Megametropolis".

Review: Staffordshire's Rich Lane made some serious waves recently with slo-mo Balearic bomb "Shelves" getting serious plays from the likes of Emperor Machine and Tronik Youth. For his latest release (on a split EP) he's chosen to present a cool, linear re-edit of A Split Second's 1986 classic "Flesh" - originally a faster punk record, it famously gave birth to Belgian New Beat when DJs played it at 33rpm and slowed to -8. Also included is returning '90s hero Peza (Lee Perry) with a reworked version of No More Nightmares - now stripped back to a slow acidic chugger.

Review: Tony Beardsley's unsigned productions caught the ear of a number of well-regarded DJs, including Daniel Avery and Craig Bratley. The latter decided to take a punt on signing the producer, releasing this debut EP on his Magic Feet imprint. "Return of the Oscillator" is quietly impressive; combining post-EBM and new-beat elements with the kind of midtempo chug and nu-Balearic flourishes for which Bratley's label has become so renowned. The Hardway Brothers provide the obligatory remix, delivering a gnarled techno revision with plenty of quietly twisted electronics and just a whisper of acid. "Galactic", which features additional production from Hardway Brothers man Sean Johnston, dips the tempo for additional hazy Balearic flavour.

The Waiting GameEXCLUSIVE
Review: Brighton's Kalidasa - named, rather appropriately, after the world's most famous Sanskrit poet - has previously released decidedly cosmic chuggers on Tusk Wax and World Unknown. Here, he pops up on Craig Bratley's label with "The Waiting Game", a suitably atmospheric blend of loose, mid-tempo drums, chugging appreggios, wide-eyed electronics and delay-laden, spaced-out guitars. It's rather good, as is Craig Bratley's squidgy remix, which sounds like Timothy J Fairplay after a fist full of happy pills. Soft Rocks break up the beats and make more of the druggy guitars on their sublime rework, which is arguably the EP's strongest moment. Finally, Kalidasa offers up some woozy warmth and tactile textures on the pleasingly warm and occasionally low-slung "Apostles of the Sun". Excellent stuff, all told.
