Tusk Wax Vinyl & CDs

Review: 500, 12" 180g, hand stamped, individually numbered records, single press only. Tusk says "I wanted to go back to the way the label started for the 20th release, so I've put together a VA which captures the way the label has moved in the past couple of years and will continue to shift"

Review: You can always rely on Tusk Wax to cook up raw, edgy grooves that pander to no-one and nothing. Antoni Maiovvi is a long time electronic outlier whose original material is under the microscope here with a series of remixes. Dutch wonder Legowelt goes first with a pixelated, sci-fi version of 'Magickal' before 'Younger Then Me' heads back to the 90s for a glistening melodic house rave up. There's a silky sense of hypnosis to the Hardway Brothers' version of 'Drip Gold' that gets right under your skin, while DJ Squid's Sweaty Remix of 'Emotional Trigger' is a frictionless jungle work out that darts about all over the place.
