Phantasmagoria Pt. 1

and so the feeling that we had I know
it was a feeling that is fleeting, no?
in my heart, in my dreams, in my eyes
I feel, you know, it was

said in the dreaming hour,
I wasn't feeling quite right

you never had a chance

in the dreaming hours
i feel my heart inside in my heart

here we are at last 
images so strange
they'll take your breathe away
oh yes the midnight hour is fleeting
when lashes start to beating
i take, i dream, i know, i do

you you you never had a chance

Phantasmagoria Pt. 1

Not only is mike "father of the year", but he also has records. Deep crates, as they say. MIKE FEEL LOVE will keep the chin scratchers at bay for a while, seeing as the original cover has zero internet presence. It will also keep the dancers happy. A scrappy little edit keeping the sloppy instrumentation in tact, because it's the best part of the song. Drums fall out of time, or drop out altogether. The synth arps fall out of synch which makes you wonder if that's an arpeggiator, or some maniac playing live. The other side is a very old edit Mike dusted off and is guaranteed to make the chin scratchers take a bathroom break- seeing as it is a top 40 hit from the 70s. Which doesn't mean it's not a burner.

Mike Simonetti - Midnight Or Late Afternoon  [2MR-024]

A soothing summer airstream coasting off of the Adriatic, Lock Eyes turns in four kaleidoscopic house & techno jams for the Lobster main label, keeping the summer sun rolling on through.

Opening the EP is ‘At Corsica’, an ever evolving, blissful and sun drenched house jam plucked straight from the cosmos. Giving a heavy nod to the legendary club and institution that has been such an inspiration for both artist and label.

Following hot on its heels is ‘Febbre’ which takes the lights down low and sets the humidity at a hazy late evening simmer. Busy humans hustle and bustle across the dusty streets as undulating kicks pierce the evening melé.

The flip kicks into gear with ‘Gone’ a fast moving and club-focused slice of techno that oscillates and whistles close to the waters' surface. Rolling drum battering and subtle percussion meet at a crossroads as an alarm call from deep beneath the sea brings things to a climax; leaving a vapour trail of cooled air in its wake.

Closing out the release is ‘In The Courtyard’, a soothing slice of machine driven acid & house. Calming pad work waves gently in the wind in and among skittering percussion, as a commanding yet understated kick & bass steers the good ship Lock Eyes back to home base.

012 - Minor Science: Volumes / Another Moon

Distant Hawaii punts the summer long into the Autumn grass with an uplifting, spirit-dancing, soul-sparkling EP from fast-rising newcomer DJ Different.

Coasting off of the back of releases for 1Ø Pills Mate and Mood Of The Era, DJ Different grabs the bull by the horns for this one with some coarsely slabbed house samplin' rubbing up against scuffed drum work, luscious chords and steady swirling deepness.

Manhattan Drive is the cold banger; debuted on Boiler Room in the Lobster boss' set and found lingering on a few Rinse shows, it bumps along with a springy step and layered with warm, tender chord work. Add in sky-high vocals and a synth-noodlin' middle eight and it's rooftop-served Manhattan's for days.

Missionaries is break-led deep house with a nautical-range subs. Soft brooding atmospheres rotating around a crunchy drum core.

On the flip, A Woman's Aura melds a hypnotic spoken word & strings onto a disciplined & punctuated 808 loop. Staccato'd goodness that rolls and rolls into the post-sunset fade of the evening sky.

The B2 works us up into astral territory via the medium of Cloud Dancin'. A cool, filtered breeze that soars through the condensed bodies and into the upper mesosphere. Sun-tinted bliss coated in dust and rhythmic charm.
