Knowledge

After the remergence of Belgium's R&S records from their self imposed 5 year hiatus as one of electronic dance music's more forward thinking imprints, comes the relaunch of their sister-label Apollo. From the early '90s through 2002 Apollo became one of the most respected labels in ambient techno, having released genre classics by such pioneering producers as Aphex Twin 'Selected Ambient Works 85-92', Jam & Spoon, Mixmaster Morris, Ken Ishii,  DJ Krush & Toshinori Kondo and Biosphere among many others. The first release is by Mancunian producer Synkro aka Joe McBride titled 'Broken Promise', normally known for his high tempo deep bass driven music, here he slows right down with some beautifully delicate yet hauntingly sounding ambience. On the track ‘Knowledge’ he delves into tabla percusion with deep dubby pads that transports you off to some far away place! Recommended..

Synkro is also offering up a free track 'I miss you' (not on the EP) courtesy of halcyon

Watch this label as there will be some great offerings forthcoming from Flash Forest w/Makoto remixes as well as Jack Dixon & Submerse.

THITH

Well after receiving a heads up on this I just couldn`t resist more from Kyle Hall as he comes this time with a remix for a brooklyn based duo called The Hundred In The Hands. Their influences range from everything from the elegant French pop of Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin to classic dub, house and post-punk. Detroit’s young master proves once again why he’s so hotly tipped to be big in 2010 by kicking up a flurry of motor city rhythms and nimble-fingered soulful house. Released on Warp Records on April 5th, There is a free promo 320kps mp3 available for download courtesy of XLR8R......So go get your free mp3 quick fix Link here..Oh no! in & Out...
