B8. Inseguire e fuggire (Ogni cosa da inseguire sfugge)

The inaugural release from the new Love International X Test Pressing imprint comes from Fantastic Man, the Berlin based Australian whose music has been played by everyone from Aphex Twin to Bicep to Gerd Janson and many more.
  
Love International make good times happen in far flung places, whilst Test Pressing make good times happen physically and in the digital sphere, a meeting of like minds and shared tastes, all bases covered here.  Together this collaboration has been releasing compilation album from the likes of Gatto Fritto, Beautiful Swimmers and Shanti Celeste, and this new label project unites recording artists and designers in a meeting of music and art.

On the ‘Cloud Management’ release, Fantastic Man teams up with Alexander Papoli-Barawati, a German/Filipino/Iranian graphic designer and art director living in Berlin.  The striking and playful graphic design is in tandem with the music, which runs from the beautiful piano–led Balearic sounds of ‘Cloud Manager’ to the floating breaks in ‘Lounge Wizard’, the warped chug tempo in ‘Psychic Monthly’ and the beautiful acid bubbles of release finale, ‘Time Apprentice’.

Island Issues is back with a second release to close out its first year, this time in the form of another tastefully deep excursion from Dubbyman with remixes from Less J and Estrato Aurora.

Dubbyman landed on Island Issues precursor Saft back in 2021 after three years away. He is a cultured artist who likes to go deep into the atmospheric end of house and techno on labels like Ferrispark, Soul People Music and Deep Explorer, which he co-founded. He always brings a musical synth style and a hypnotic sense of groove as this latest offering shows once more.

'Obsession' finds him working with Bjak, who came up in Chicago's early 90s scene and has been making waves for three decades since. Together they lay down a deep, body-popping and mid-tempo electro rhythm. It's brought to life with steamy male vocals and boogie-tinged bass with a retro feel and tender piano chords that melt the heart.

The L’ Hospitalet rising star Less J remix flips the track into a smoky basement house cut with candle-lit piano chords. Distant vocals bring the soul while seductive sax lines drift in and out next to the atmospheric sounds of a live jazz club.

Estrato Aurora has been a key part of the Valencia underground for almost 20 years. He has a wide array of hardware and has landed on labels like Appian Sounds, On Boards Music and Bliq. His first vocal remix is blissed out and loose, with heady chords and tumbling percussion sinking you into a reverie. Then comes a breaks remix that is more dynamic and driving, with crisp hits and broken beat drums overlaid with diffuse chords. It's brilliantly intimate yet sure to lock in the dance floor.

Dubbyman's 'Obsession' is another great package from Island Issues that should be under every deep house aficionado’s Christmas Tree.
