Funtom – Acid Dreams (Enrique Vela Remix)
Very fun and haunting tune with a lot of cool synthetic messing around, a subtle, diverse arrangement and a really dope build towards the end…
Peza – Set It Off
Wonderful rework of Set It Off by Peza. For this rework he used both versions of the song, the Masquerade version and the Original by Strafe, supported by a massive acid bassline. Peza drops more dope edits and mixtapes on his soundcloud.
BareSkin – Eyes EP
Awesome tune and release by the 18 year old, and upcoming producer Bareskin. The release really shows some great talent with these two bangers being my favorite tunes for the floors, but the other two tracks, ‘Framework’ and ‘Nightsquad’ are some really great atmospheric tunes.
Titletrack and some Super raw and intense acidized stuff with a great UK feel to it. This is one of those tunes that gives me visions of houses being broken down at 4am.
30 Visions:
Sinkane – Runnin (Daphni remix)
Insanely raw vocal tune with awesome and original use of sounds by Daphni (Caribou). Its that cool dynamic, fluid, playful and original use of sounds and rhythms that Caribou’s productions usually have. This track just keeps building and begging and gets awesomely intense after a while, especially in the second half.
San Proper – A Choice Named Joyce
Proper debut album on Rush Hour from the man who’s name has been circulating forever in “the scene”. With his wild appearance, some cool remixes and EP’s and original, sometimes insane. dj-sets, you could speak of a cult entity here.
The ‘Animal’ LP features a variety of cool deep, sometimes techy and sometimes funky and organic vocal tunes with this little acidized stomper being amongst my favorites. Def worth checking out.

Miguel Migs – Tonight (Crazy P Remix)
Great remix of Miguel Mig’s ‘Tonight’ by Crazy P from the remix EP for ‘Tonight’ Migs put out. The EP contains 6 high quality remixes of the song. Crazy P Turns this typical “Migsian” warm and vocal soulhouse tune into a ploinky and very groovy nu-acid tune.

LPZ – Snake & Butterfish
Insane tribal mindfuck with a cool snappy sound, taking us back to the roots of all music with nothing but hypnotic percussive elements and a haunting spirit waved through, telling us to move our feet and chant along…

Frankie Dep – Be Dangerous
Cool cosmic minimal acid stuff with a long intro beat (sht gets serious at 1:36) and a couple of fine builds by the man from Italy, who released his 1 song EP on Eye Records in the digital domain today.

Isolée – Beau Mot Plage
This tune by German Producer Isolée is one of my favorites. Its hard to explain what happened to me when I first heard it 12 years ago. But the word ecstatic would be a ‘somewhat reasonable way to describe it. I could write an essay about how genius the production and the composition are, but i’ll let the music do the talking.
I recorded this from vinyl. Enjoy!

Alex Jones – Stamp (Jay Tripwire Acid Weapon Remix)
Hypercolour released their sequel to Patterns Vol 1. The compilation contains remixes of tracks from their own label and has some really nice deep house tunes.
Since I have a serious weak spot for the slightly slower house and techno tracks, screaming tin foiled hat conspiracy theorists and the sounds of the TB-303 this track obviously stood out.
