Huerta presents Apache Line, bringing Youandewan. "Mandala" carries itself through chugging shakers and pad-work, held tightly in place by the squelchy, off-kilter lead. The tune never quite sits still, bubbling about by each percolating percussive layer. "Eistee" is at best the chiller-fitting, with jacking percussion and complimenting drum programming giving this track its toughness. "Apache Line" only reaches its incline after the minute mark. Spring delayed and filtered heavily, the track's wonky lead bleeds through as if to enrapture you in its thermal clutch. Youandewan adds the floor-readied "Yo Endlos" - simplicity in its step but tightness throughout its progression.

AMA 016EP
|
180-gram vinyl. LA house producer Cromie follows a killer debut for NYC-based label Peach with his Amadeus debut. "At Interfaces" introduces a beautiful saxophone solo and the occasional vocal to complement the massive bassline and percolating pads that form its backbone. The B-side is all fascinating rhythms for the DJs. "Tariff" is pure peak-time business. The B2, or "inside cut," "Clear To Me," features James del Barco, with whom Cromie throws underground raves in LA; the track mixes a hyperactive 2-step kick with a jacking snare and just the right amount of LA G-funk action, with a sampled diva sweetening the mix.
