Jon Doe’s SeeMeInLuv is driven by it’s deep kick and the side to side movement of hypnotic textures.Aggressively cracked percussion becomes more chaotic as the track progresses while dancing across a punchy bass line.

Ernesto’s remix pushes the percussion even further and adds to it a spooky melody.Sensitive Emotion takes the intensity up a notch with it’s manic use of hi-hats and vocal stabs.

High energy in both tempo and arrangement yet surprisingly melancholic in sound.Jon strips it down and reworks it for the dance floor opting for a slinky but solid feel.

Greg begins with La Palud. Efficiant beats and a funky 303 line make this one very forward moving. Pull Out the Audio Plug gets a little more agressive with distorted clicks and toms on a bed of droning bass.

Third is the dance-floor friendly Symptomatik: rolling rhythms topped off with a lush pad that makes you want to cry. Repeat After Me turns back to the dark side spinning out stuttered pops and a haunting bass line. Last is Kagnicule, a glitzy long player.

The opening track, What If We’re Not, is about as edgy and hypnotic as it is dark and atmospheric. The pulsating kick drum is pushed to its limit and an unsettling scratchy vocal begs the question: What if we’re not young and beautiful? Eerie melodies, distorted, back-flipping snares and a bouncy beat present a funky, yet aggressive, vibe on Slim Pickins’.

The whirly Fuck Time, or Waste It is carried along by a subdued 303 line and recorded guitar noise. Also evident is the back and forth movement of the hi hats, which make for great conversation.By far the most emotional of the four, Keeping Composure dishes out a warm and textured vibe that gives an impression of the artist’s frame of mind during conception. Straightforward percussion ensures movement while bell melodies suggest a sense of sadness.
