Certificate 18 promo notes:

Certificate 18's prodigal son Polar leads us out of the dirge of winter with his spring/summer collection of deep rolling breakbeats of all persuasions. As the sequel to last year's critically acclaimed debut 'Still Moving', the new 8 track offering sees Norwegian exile K aka Polar moving further away from his drum 'n' bass beginnings into deeper, more diverse water.

Embracing the multi-tempo territory that was hinted at on the 'White Chambers EP', the new LP is startling evidence of a 23-year old production whizz-kid spreading his wings. From the staccato splendour of opener 'Love Is In The Ear' to weird-hop secret track 'Outro', those who caught on to Polar's considerable talent in his previous excursions will revel in the new ground K is treading.

The ice cool drum 'n' bass workouts that K made his mark with still remain in their understated glory, on tracks like 'The Other Side' and 'Out of Range', but it's the excursions beyond his usual production plane that will really impress. Haunting electro sensibilities and ultra-slick, virtuoso production skills provide the basis for killer cuts 'Safari', 'Behind The Scenes' and the more downtempo 'Lectric'.

Hypnotic, groovy, dark and deeply electronic - it's Polar at his very finest, with a deft touch in every detail of every sound: trademark wintery keys and synths soaring over the rolling crystalline breaks. You know it's Polar, but you don't know how he makes those sounds cut so deep…

This is the second LP from the San Francisco based producer, who first made his mark with killer track 'Hidden Rooms' which was swiftly followed with mini-LP '37 Degrees and Falling' - all on Certificate 18. He continues to impress not only the d'n'b cognoscenti, but garners praise from such diverse figures as Gilles Peterson, Amon Tobin, Plaid, Adam Freeland and Mixmaster Morris.

Our hypnosis is a mental state induced by repetitive sound patterns.

Hypnosis is about event and artist management. We organise awful electronic music parties since 2002. We fire visual pollution into the eyes. We have a strange puppet performance.We pimp djs and producers. Bringing talents to Budapest from around the globe.

Hypnosis is loving it's own Puppet troupe, which is a really cute little group of huge dolls with big eyes and one of a nose. The second piece has been presented in September 2008. Everyone loved it, so did we! Some said it was dreamland some said it was an eye shocking reverie.
