Review: With previous releases on top labels such as Roots For Bloom and Rutilance Recordings, Brittany based duo Gojah & Kasmin aka Mara Lakour deliver another dose of sexy late night deepness here for Nrmndy - which follows up an excellent inaugural release by Ka One & St-sene. "Inhale" kicks off the EP in fine fashion on this emotive, swing-fuelled groove for the early hours, while the trippy bump and shuffle of "Solar" follows in suit - and it receives a tremendous rework on the flip. Havantepe's remix sees the rising Turkish producer deliver a evocative excursion through analogue soul in the vein of Cab Drivers or DJ Honesty, while the sleazy bounce of "Mirrors" will hypnotise you into submission with its swirling pads, sexy vocals and firm rhythms.

Review: We've become relentless pushers of (albeit, only the best) minimal and tech house as of late, and given the community-oriented mindset of the scene, it comes as no surprise to learn that some of the best releases out there are made by siblings. The duo Miroloja are brothers, but their creative hands seem to bleed into one another, with their eighth top-up of the being a four-track swirl of funk, groove, and tick. From 'Goatz' to 'Grimmgimmik', organs and X0Xs writhe about the stereo field, portraying the sweatiest of brotherly dance moods.
