Body Beat EP

Something I Said

Dansu Discs enlist Melbourne/Naarm party starters IN2STELLAR for their 47th edition via the 'Body Beat' EP.

The EP kicks off with the title track 'Body Beat'. It's pulsating rhythm is driven by a menacing 4/4 kick and bass bin rattling low end, juxtaposed to the hypnotic, sensual vocal top line creating a heavy piece of hardgroove gear. We're met with more twisted, techno affected beats on 'Something I Said', this time with the psychedelia turned up just a notch. Disconcerting, warped vocal samples bounce along intermittently by cleverly placed percussion, all once again propelled by a classic peak time kick, snare, hat & bass combination.

The impressive 3 tracker wraps up with 'Below Surface' and brings with it a bit of a gear shift for the closing stanza. The pair employ elements of dub techno and deep house for a track thats equal parts groove and melancholic to complete an extremely well rounded, versatile release from a label synonymous with genre diversity.

PREMIERE : In2Stellar - Below Surface

Klasse Recordings and Grafiti Tapes impresario, Luca Lozano, rolls up to Hypercolour with a 12” par excellence of genre blending, future dance grooves.  Leaning on his Sheffield upbringing, it’s of no surprise that the break beats, edits and bleeps of his native city seeps into his own forward thinking productions.  Having racked up some super releases for Sex Tags UFO, Optimo Trax, Crème Organization, alongside his own imprints, Lozano really impresses on his Hypercolour debut.  

‘Gun Fingers’ is a strictly heads down affair, luscious synths, tantalising breaks and heavyweight b-line sandwich in-between pounding kicks for a classy cut, whilst ‘Calling All Dancers’ is indeed a call to rave, laced with the familiar components of a golden era of UK dance, that never slips into pastiche, instead sounding fresh, vital and relevant to the times.

Kindred spirit, DJ Sotofett, weighs in with two versions of ‘Gun Fingers’ exclusively for the vinyl edition of this release.  Those who know Sotofett’s killer style will know the score here, and he certainly does not disappoint.  And those who spent time chasing around motorways and A roads in search of the party will most definitely know what’s up on this set of remixes!
