Their previous album on Billy Nasty made a buzz! This new EP might take the same way. From Bognor Regis where Orson Bramley and Martin Brown have settled their headquarter, Transparent Sound UK artists sign a fresh, deep, dark and paranoiac three cuts 12''. Unhealthy atmospheres and dancefloor beats, some ingredients we should find on their new Orson label to be launched soon. Essential!

After Mental Groove, Viking and Gigolo, the Swiss producer is now appearing on Berliner label Lasergun in an electro techno 80s style of course. With their vocal samples, 4/4 rhythms, arpeggios & big analog sounds, "Playmates gamma" and the very original "Flashover" bring together minimalism and energy. "Avec plaisir" is smoother, more oldschool in its rhythm and it develops a very nice melancholic atmosphere. Finally, back to the dancefloor with the very pumpin' & groovy "Right in the eye" that will shake the crowds for sure... Check it!!

Coming out of common paths, here could be Control Tower motto. To prove this, let's listen to this downtempo hip hop 10inch with on A side recognizable vocals from legendary ragga MC Silvah Bullet over a Radioactive Man composition. The Deadsilence Syndicate (R. Man, The Dexorcist and Krude) remix on the flip institutes a robotic climate over a more offensive breaks rhythm. Really fresh and innovative!

When the European electro Pope attacks the techno genre, we could be sceptical. Yet, with "Bodytalk" and "Come With Me", two fearsome killer tunes with electropunk influences, German artist surprises once again with his incredible dancefloor sense. So what well done claps, light synthesized vocals and 4/4 groovy rhythms can combine each other. A 12'' that works perfectly!
