If the year has been rather quiet as for the releases on Damo Foster and Jay Pearce's label, 2006 should be full of surprises with forthcoming productions from Maetrik Vs Mariel Ito, Life Project, Bryan Zentz or Paul Mac to name a few. Meanwhile, London based structure returns with Scape One second output under his Tone Cluster moniker. This long awaited follow up to Affected 10, submitted here in a superb limited to 500 copies white vinyl, delivers four unreleased electro cuts alternating languorous and offensive masterpieces. In overture of A-side, "Moody Diversion" introduces a minimal and slow track while "Kaleidoscope" signs a wonderful atmospheric construction. Based upon fearsome synthetic melodies, "The Soul Selects" and "The Penultimate Truth" offer on the flip two future classics, deep, subtle and full of emotions at the same. When quality joins aestheticism! Essential. www.affectedmusic.co.uk Nexus 6, 02/02/2006
