<p>Ian returns to Tronic with his unmistakeable, melody-laden sound and kicks off this threefold affair with the mystical vibe of &#8220;Black Widow&#8221;. Beefy riffs take center stage and intricate synth programming elevates things to manic proportions while a chugging rhythm section combines with snappy bass to keep the groove going. On &#8220;Millennia&#8221; we are offered a more introspective approach, utilizing pulsating bass and nostalgic chords, with the emotion factor emphasized even more via bittersweet arpeggios and pads.<br />
 On the more optimistic &#8220;Lotus&#8221;, busy snares work their way around the subtle bassline and a firm nod to the Housier side of things is given, evident by familiar strings, filtered goodness and bouncy percussion.</p>

Alan Fitzpatrick is back with a three-track EP that encapsulates what Alan’s Drumcode sound is all about. Hard-hitting drums that fire down onto the dance floor like cannon balls. Check! Intense key patterns that are as twisted as they are uplifting. Check! Beautiful melodies that seamlessly interlock with each element. Check! Big-sounding, infectious grooves and killer hooks generously sprinkled with the infamous Fitzpatrick magic over the top. CHECK! In short, this EP is everything we have come to expect from Alan over his long history with Drumcode (this is his 10th EP as a solo artist!), but still his sound remains fresh and super-charged for 2014.

Pascal Nuzzo “Rising” - Nuzzo is an innovator, and he displays an impressive range with “Rising,” a track that seems to take good cues from its title out of the gate. After starting with a minimalist beat, Nuzzo invites in an array of different sounds, slowly introducing more and more animals to the menagerie before taking off with a slow synth beat that alternates with the higher pitches gracefully. The bridge ups the BPMs to almost double-time duty before taking the whole to a faster beat that rises to the forefront. The balance of so many different sounds is masterful, taking turns with each other in a way that never overwhelms either side before leaving us with a tempo that has to be matching the heartbeats of anyone who’s been dancing along.

After appearing on our sister label Truesoul and also the A-sides Volume 2, dubspeeka releases his first full EP on Drumcode. Basing his sound heavily on his uniquely dark and twisted melodies, dubspeeka has created a brooding, atmospheric EP that capture each individual feeling on the techno scale from bouncing, energetic tracks to melancholic offerings. His use of Percussive sounds add energy to tracks such as Primary K290 and his array of eloquent lead lines add depth and character that can be heard on Primary K293.

Mr McKay is back on Drumcode with an EP that is very close to home, titled ‘Glasgow Safari’. Harvey has blended his synonymous synth stabs and vocal hooks together and has created another outstanding EP. The drums are fat and chunky as always and allow Harvey’s ideas to flow effortlessly over a solid foundation. The smooth use of dynamic throughout Harvey’s tracks also create impressive drops to add to another exceptional EP from Harvey.

Alan Fitzpatrick’s latest EP is the product of a particularly productive six months of studio time for the Drumcode regular. Containing five tracks that cover a circular range from pre-party ambiance to tripped-out melodic odyssey; vocal laced, chord driven hooks; barnstorming peak-time hammers; and 123bm afterparty grooves; there is more than the usual Drumcode fare on offer within the aptly named Life Through Different Eyes EP. A significant release for artist and label; the sonic incarnation of Fitzpatrick’s growing maturity as a producer and an indication as to the next evolution of the Drumcode sound.

EP032 – De Sluwe Vos (Feat. Beaumont Livingstone) – Believe EP inc. remixes by Timmy P & John Mood.

As we stride into our thirties, we decided it was time to commit some of our solid workouts to wax.

So first up we are putting our trust in Dutch wunderkind & raw house specialist De Sluwe Vos (The Sly Fox) and his vocal cohort Beaumont Livingstone and their roof raising anthem “Believe” which we firmly *ahem* believe is set to ignite dance floors across the world all summer long after being repeatedly road tested by T-Bone & JMX to rapturous results.

English gentleman Timmy P steps up for remix duties and splashes the lotion all over “Believe”, creating a great upbeat version to complement the brooding original with a mix that is bound to make great sense at any roof top parties.

“I.izab” completes the package with it’s dubbed out dark house vibe and John Mood turns it into a proper piece of blissed out techno with his mix which perfectly brings proceedings to a close.

We honestly reckon you may find it hard to get a better package deal than you'll get on these hot summer burners.

Play on!
