Review: Geneva (formerly Amsterdam) based Night Noise serve up a new one by Mark Cooper's Bedford Falls Players: a collective of DJ's heavily influenced and inspired by the early acid house and balearic experience including Terry Farley, Justin Drake, Alan MacKenzie and Rob Webb amongst others. On "Moon: Chapter 1" (Agent Cooper's "Peak" Time Warm Up mix) it's an interesting genre defying one, we must say. Gloomy dub chords soar over cavernous beats and a howling EBM style arpeggio. There's some dark and reductionist Italo business up next on "Chapter: 3" (Agent Cooper's Black Lodge Excursion) which will appeal to fans of the Correspondant sound. It gets remixed up next - they save the best for last with Duncan Gray of Tici Taci's deep and lo slung balearica rendition.
Review: Yarni has been delivering quietly impressive, heavily electronic deep house EPs for Redlight and others since the start of 2014. Here, he graduates to the album format for the first time, delivering an impressively melodious and action-packed debut for Nightnoise. Over the course of 11 cheerful tracks, the Sheffield-based producer gleefully joins the dots between the hypnotic and musically expansive tech-house of Innervisions, tropical electronica, bass-heavy UK house (given his Steel City location, we'd expect nothing less), vintage Italian dream house, stretched out techno, Middle East-inspired dancefloor rollers, spaced-out electronica, new age ambient and bolder, rougher workouts.
