Review: Following his recent Chiral long player on Nous'klaer Audio, Martinou debuts on Turbo. "Getting Into It" opens the EP in atmospheric mode with serene synths and ambient textures. "I Told You We'd Make It" also has an ethereal sensibility, but it is wrapped into a lithe, techy rhythm. Plotting a similar path on "Exhilaration", Martinou drops dubbed out drums, which act as the backdrop for waves of brooding chords. "The Offering" is the only outlier on the release. On this occasion, the kicks are tougher and the bass clangs with a metallic swagger - the end result is a lean, hypnotic techno track.
Review: Bay Area tech house hero and Dirtybird Stalwart Justin Martin released his full length Hello Clouds to a great reception last year and now it's time for a remix package that is equally impressive. Featuring the likes of Walker & Ryce, Ardalan and Chris Lorenzo amongst several others; it is so hard to choose favourites among such a talented bunch. But for our money we'd bet on the following: South African Kyle Watson with his take on "Odyssey" which takes the track down even deeper and dreamy territory; if not for that serious grinding bassline. Brit in Los Angeles Doorly is here with a typically explosive remix: this time on the epic acid journey "Midnight" while fellow Brit Jakwob delivers deep tech house in fine form on his version of the title track. Also of important note: witness the return of legendary Brazilian drum and bass don DJ Marky who appropriately remixes the track "Back To The Jungle" and its all quite fitting really.
