Link PinsFascade@137db's Character of the Moment receives a resonant Sinewave treatment while Fascade dissects layers of haunting melody by famed composer Angelo Badalamenti (Twin Peaks, Blue Velvet soundtracks). Link Pins also features the newest act on the label - Leaf System, who forge a new alliance showcasing the depth of Canadian dub. The Seed Organization teams up with Chronic Sonata to give us Whirlwind Dub, an upbeat, driving reggae rocker. Kasm & Equanim, reunite after 6 years apart and show they still keep good form with the punchy downtempo track Sky Hook. The label's veteran turntablist - DJ Brace teams up with Microthol's Soulglo (Trust Records, Vienna), for a fusion of lightning fast cuts and electro elements. The IDM wizards, Billy Rockwell & Sohcahtoa, reconnect with James Woods News @ 6, a richly textured track of glitch hop and ethereal melodies. Solidaze keeps up his electro soul vibes on the comp, this time adding the vocal splendour of The Art Party in Thoughts Return to You. Another Viennese import - Cay Taylan (Couch Records) recapitulates The Seed Organization's much acclaimed Point of Focus. You won't want to miss out on an order of Chicken Soup from Rise Ashen & Blissom, who contribute a gorgeous afrobeat number while Kasm rehashes a classic Rise Ashen track from his Earth Dragon release, injecting a broken beat mixture into Fight to Hang On. Ashen also interprets Solidaze's Curve Seven with an epic reworking of live percussion while Parisian Mod X and Nordic Trax house guru Gavin Froome add to the Solidaze remixes with their distinctive broken beat and deep house styles.
