MACHINE 006EP
|
Los Angeles duo Split Secs present Rhummy, a seductive foray into techno-tinged, controlled madness. The original mix of "Rhummy" is a moody, lurching and low-slung thing, with vacuum-packed kick drum rolls under skittering hi-hats and grinding synth textures. Dublin's Compassion Crew add a whispered, and generally unsettling, vocal snippet to the original. Tom Noble delivers a punchy hybrid of melodic techno and old school NY/NJ garage bathed in a wash of bubbling synth work. "System Musica" is a Latin-infused, techy bounder that will sound as good in San Antonio, Texas as it does in San Antonio, Ibiza.

MT 006EP
|
Split Secs are a Los Angeles based duo, Travis Kirschbaum and Alexandre Mouracade (aka Sonns). "Corduroy City" frolics like a drunken sailor who's lost at sea and finds himself cast ashore on a Balearic beach that just so happens to be raging full of sunshine dancers. "Tele Tone" is one of those lost on the dancefloor moments, grabbing the nearest form of security and holding it tight for the duration. The Mole owns Maybe Tomorrow so he decided to step in for remix duties on the title track - his classy sway is only a tear away from your heart.

MACHINE 005EP
|
"React" by LA duo Split Secs (Alexandre Mouracade (Sonns) and Travis Kirschbaum (TK Disko)) is classic deep house, with a pulsing bassline of which Marshall Jefferson would be proud and the ominous, extremely sexy spoken Italian vocals of Alona (40 Thieves). The first of two remixes by Indonesian producer Jonathan Kusuma is a driving house track that brings early Tommy Musto to mind; his second offering strays into darker territory with an acid-tinged bassline and rolling toms. Hardway Bros' remix toughens the original bassline even further, makes the beat stomp hard, and throws in some acid.
