Sued Germany レコード& CD

Review: A warm welcome back to the SUED label, which returns to action - via a fresh EP from imprint regulars Dresvn (Dynamo Dreesen and label co-founder Sven Rieger) - after a hiatus of nigh on two years. Following a suitably spaced-out start (the weirdo ambient jazz of "Intro", featuring Tom Page on drums), the German duo offers up two mixes of title track "Metro". The first, the "Live Mix", is a fluid and off-kilter techno roller rich in deep, spacey synthesizer sounds, galloping drum machine beats, jaunty bass and sparkling lead lines. The "Studio Mix" is, as you'd expect, an altogether smoother and even more spacey sounding experience, with the pair conjuring up an ambient techno masterpiece that's more influenced by dream house than the sci-fi sounds of Detroit.

Review: The classy Sued label invites a trio of producers to take us on a balmy cosmic and ambient-laced house trip here with this beautifully pure and innocent new EP. PST is the anchor on each track and first up he works with Coral & SVN on the sub-aquatic deep house funk of 'Tryptmix'. He goes it alone on 'The Memories' which is all incidental melodies and deep space neon colours, and again on 'Frisbee Man' which is jumbled downtempo and acid jazz styled house before re-uniting with SVN for the cuddly, scuffed up and warm house depths of 'Version Two.'
