Szew - Night in Motion
Incl. Nicolas Ming & SY remixes

A producer known for his refined blend of house and electro influences, Szew delivers a dynamic EP that bridges past and future sounds.

The title track, Night in Motion, is a rolling, late-night anthem built for hypnotic dancefloors, while Feel 4 Me channels soulful house energy with a modern edge. The EP also features two heavyweight remixes: SY's Ultra Feeling Mix, where the UK artist infuses Feel 4 Me with his signature deep and driving touch, and Nicolas Ming’s remix of Night in Motion, offering a different and groovy perspective with infectious rhythms.

As an exclusive bonus, the fifth track 'Nightlife' will be available only on Bandcamp for those who purchase the full release.

With Night in Motion EP, Szew shows his ability to fuse classic influences with avant-garde sounds, staying true to Reboot's vision of timeless music.

Originally released via Terraform Records in 1995, 'Systems E.P. 1' was certainly too ahead of its time to meet with success back in the day. That said, as years went by, so swelled the reputation of this sextet of visionary, alien-engineered jams, soon turning the once $1 bin find into a highly sought-after item on the second-hand market. Much to the displeasure of hardline speculators but for the greatest joy of skint '90s sound lovers, KOC reissues the Systems experience in full force and effect.

Harbouring a trio of submersible ambient-tech and 303-driven breaky weapons, Red Shift's own dedicated A-side has lost nothing of its soul-fulfilling appeal. Getting the ball rolling, '3rd Moon' skippers us to brightly hued sound niches, where trancey acid motifs merge with slo-moving ambient pads and uptempo breakbeat on a frenzy. Laced with a hint of bleepy abstraction, the more lascivious, piano-laden 'Audity' then shifts the scope to further introspective depths before 'Himalayas' takes us on a mind-expanding ride across imaginary snow-capped summits and lushly forested slopes.

Flip it over and here comes Ether and their mightily explosive 'Detonator' - a wild and woolly acid number that shall not go without conjuring up memories of the early Prodigy's mid-nineties rave exploits. Not to be confused with that of his contemporary Australian counterpart, Escape Artist's 'Rain Eternal' evokes the soulful RnB suavity of Sade's classics, adorned with otherworldly organic warbles and addictive piano stabs. Constants of Nature vibey closer 'Slow Symmetry Breaking' rounds off the journey on a further distinctively atmospheric note, perfect to muster up the energy and drive to take it on the lam from our crazy world.

B3 Constants Of Nature - Slow Symmetry Breaking (from Systems e.p. 1 - OYSTER22) - OUT NOW!

Oscillation is the repetitive variation, typically in time, of some measure about a central value or between two or more different states. Aleksi Perala uses the 128 resonant colundi frequencies to create an oscillation perfected to 33.3 rpm for infinite effect.

Rhythm and Isolation

PREMIERE: Sedgwick - Bermuda Dream (Potatoheadz Records)

Bleary-eyed and weak-limbed she struggled to find her footing in these unfamiliar surroundings. Was it her own perspective or was the world around her simply dissolving before her eyes? Objects had become strange and obscure, and colours more washed out; a doubled vision of an uncertain environment.

You could say fate brought space•lab boss Dr Baird and Italian duo Quiet Men together. Whilst on a drive through the countryside a few years ago, a recently unearthed compilation CD that came out on Disturbance Records back in '97 soundtracked Dr Baird's journey, one that featured tracks from Astral Body, T.W.E and Aphex Twin's Caustic Window alias. But it was the intricate production and beautiful synths of Quiet Men's contribution 'Brain' that caught his attention.

He began to dig into their background and found that the pair also operated under retina.it, friends and collaborators of Donato Dozzy and Neel, whom he'd met just the year before at a party in London. Following the realisation, Baird got in touch with Lino Monaco (one half of the duo) about a re-release of 'Brain', who subsequently shared 'Brain' alongside a collection of unreleased tracks, which had been sat on a dusty DAT since the late 90s. Remastered, and on vinyl for the first time, four of the forgotten cuts see the light of the day for the first time in the form of The Transition; a collection of 90s jams, celestial techno and melting soundscapes.
