Running Back Vinyl & CDs

Review: Cosmic vibes, disco roots and a touch of robot melancholy, created during a time of isolation and strange moments apparently, so channels feelings of longing and creativity into something playful and deeply human. We're told that what began as an open-ended studio session became a journey fuelled by synthesisers, with Luis adding guitar and Marabou handling gear and recording. The tracks balance nostalgia and futurism across remixes from I-f, Gerd Janson and Dan Tyler of the Idjut Boys.

Review: Robert Dietz continues to impress with his latest EP, Rejuve-Nation, demonstrating his versatility and skill as a producer and DJ. The standout track, 'Crane Song,' explores proggy house territory with a sophisticated touch, offering two distinct mixes that captivate the listener with their intelligent arrangements. 'Deranged Self Therapy' takes a different turn, blending IDM with new wave drums and poignant synths, resulting in an excellent composition perfect for lovesick robots. 'Centro Di Gravita' builds upon the qualities of 'Crane Song' while infusing it with an acid lines to push boundaries and experiment with different sounds. Closing the EP, 'Any Plan(t)s This Weekend' provides a soothing ambient experience, like a confident sketch for the end of a beautiful summer. Rejuve-Nation offers a bouquet of bangers catering to various musical preferences.

Review: Ketiov aka Wojciech Taranczuk, best known for his projects 3 Channels and Catz 'N Dogz. offers us a batch of percussive workouts extends his deep love affair with rhythm, offering seven tracks that blur the line between utility and artistry. Each track breathes with the warmth of live instrumentation, as if lifted straight from a jam session with an unstoppable groove. His knack for organic drum sounds, textured layering, and playful syncopation turns raw percussion into something deeply human. 'FT' and 'BA' roll with 130BPM urgency, while 'SU' takes a detour into loose, 105BPM funk, proving Ketiov's versatility. His approach recalls the tactile swing of old-school house yet feels utterly freshieach track a pocket of kinetic energy, primed for movement.
