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.

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.
