MARK REEVE | Dice Remixes Part 2 [SOMA407D]

1.	Dice (Harvey McKay Remix)
2.	Dice (Pig & Dan Remix)

Part 2 of Mark Reeve’s Dice Remix package comes courtesy of 2 of Techno’s biggest names, Glasgow’s own Harvey McKay and the wonder duo of Pig & Dan. Both have turned in excellent interpretations of Mark’s storming original, each lending their own imitable style to the package.

Man of the moment, Harvey McKay steps up first and makes his remix, as ever, all about the rolling grooves. Choppy vocal cuts and solid percussion carve one funked up bassline out as Harvey slowly works in the original vocal sample backed by his own cuts while shard like rides slice through, taking the track up a notch. Subtle builds helps Harvey create tension before firing back into his sub-laden groove. Harvey’s real skill in this remix shines through in the arrangement that always seems to be increasing in pace, keeping the track interesting.

Taking things in a heavier route, the dynamic duo of Pig & Dan drop a blistering remix next. Pulsing low-end kick off their hypnotising remix which is layered nicely with skipping percussion and quick shots form Mark’s original vocal sample. Going into the break they add an almost discordant hook that keeps things eerie and dark. Subtle change in the percussion allows the track to flow as this version keeps proceedings firmly rooted in the dance floor. 

These two heavyweight names are a great addition to the previous instalment of this remix series that sees Dice make a fantastic return to the scene in 2014

Mark Reeve - Dice (Harvey McKay Remix)(Soma 407d)

<p>The boys return to Phobiq with all guns blazing, and the title track stomps through the door with no mercy as monstrous, familiar chords touch down in style and cavernous effects provide the perfect backdrop for the hypnotic vocal. &#8220;Away From Here&#8221; opts for an even more streamlined approach as commanding synth stabs evolve and mutate, while distant diva snippets add to the thick atmosphere. Closing up, the Dub Mix of &#8220;Behind Closed Doors&#8221; serves as an alternate plan of action.</p>

Luigi Madonna & Alberto Pas - Somewhere in Berlin [AnalyticTrail Rec]

Happy that this EP will finally be released as Alex Mine & D-Deck's „Opus“ was one of the tracks which made the crowd go crazy when I played it at Time Warp for the first time. And „Lost" with its funky beat and trippy vocal was already supported from Carl Cox in his radio show. I hope you enjoy that musical journey from Alex including the great remix by Alberto Ruiz!

The Plot Music 014 – V.A. w/ Piemont, Hermanez, Matchy & Bott, fran&co, Andlee & Kollektiv KlangGut

1. Piemont – Alive
2. fran&co - Shah Parvaz
3. Hermanez – Mutation
4. Matchy & Bott – Luvvibe
5. Andlee & Kollektiv KlangGut – So Strong

We are happy to tell you that our next release will be a compilation with five tracks from excellent artists on board with the perfect name 'The Variety Of The Mind'. For this first V.A. release we could win no one less than Piemont, fran&co, Hermanez, Matchy & Bott and Andlee & Kollektiv KlangGut.
With track number one of our compilation, 'Alive', Piemont deliver a tech house bomb just as ex-pected. The two guys create a fantastic build-up and let it explode afterwards. Everything is accom-panied by groovy arp sequences and flying vocal pieces.
When the bassline of 'Shah Parvaz' by fran&co comes in, it just makes you get up and dance. Short-ly after an intense break with hypnotic vocals comes in and creates tension. A captivating synth se-quence accompanies the track and finally oriental flute sounds come in, turning this piece into some-thing really unique.
'Mutation' by Hermanez gives us different percussive sounds swirling around the room. Additional-ly, a shuffling 16th beat and modulating synth sounds make this wonderfully spacy track sound very alive and energetic.
Matchy & Bott bring in the 'Luvvibe', starting with a forward-driven bassline, powerful snares, claps and shakers. A short female vocal sequence with a lot of space marks the central element of this beautiful melancholic composition.
The track name 'So Strong' is right on the spot for the contribution of Andlee & Kollektiv KlangGut. A bass which is housy and dark at the same time and a hypnotic vocal turn this music piece into a real dance floor killer. Forward-pushing hi-hats coming in in the middle making it even more driving and ravy.

Many will be familiar with the Italian producers work as part of the duo Veerus & Maxie Devine. Together they debuted on Kittball in 2014 and have continued enjoying a fruitful partnership over the years, gaining the recognition from many of the upper echelons of house and techno. However, in recent years Veerus has released a stream of solo releases on respected labels like Yoshitoshi, Transmit Recordings, Octopus Records and Truesoul (in collaboration with OC & Verde). He now returns to Kittball with a pair of cavernous cuts.Rumbling kicks and ominous atmospheric samples set the tone in Cant Stop Wont Stop as synth melodies join echoing effects. The menacing aesthetic continues in Paranoic courtesy of reverberating percussion and twisted stabs before introducing a whirring hook thats destined to light up dancefloors.

Broker has been part of the Verflixt family from the very beginning.
Known for his bass-driven sounds, he keeps pushing it forward by exploring more of a techno sound in his new EP „Sequencer“. Powerful kicks and a juicy bassline surrounded by dizzy noises make Sequencer stand out to his previous releases. To top it off Sabura threw in a remix of the title-track, which sets you into a dreamy state and lets you float away on its melodic accents. For the counterpart „Rave and Morty“, Broker stayed true to himself and crafted a song
that creates the urge to jump up immediately and get to the front of the Dancefloor.
