Also, if there's anyone reading this at a loose end at new years, be sure to consider a little shindig I'm organising in a small art gallery space in Brixton with fellow good guys Jitterbug (of Uzuri records fame), Nick Craddock (of tip-top techno types Sud) and my good buddy Slim (former resident of Brixton's Risky Disco). Here's some vague details:

Various - House Expressions (Lunar Disko)

Lunar Disko Records presents

House Expressions...

Side_A
Lerosa - Longing
Mark du Mosch - Blessings

Side_AA
Meschi - Concrete Island
Automatic Tasty - Welcome Ohm Luv

LDR returns with the labels first various artists release, four house expressions - from four cutting edge producers.

Dublin based Italian producer, Lerosa opens the EP with 'Longing'...a warm, proficiently produced electronic house cut as always from the 'adopted Dubliner'. Smooth percussion and synth sounds layered and arranged to perfection while still keeping that free-flowing Lerosa style.

Rotterdam's Mark du Mosch delivers an uplifting house / techno influenced workout 'Blessings'. Refined percussion and wonderful space-synth soundscapes alongside a driving bassline that will get the dancefloor moving for sure!

Glaswegian Meschi debuts with 'Concrete Island' , the London based producer delivers a blissful deep house track. A laidback rhythmical production that just gets better and better throughout, with clever arrangements of elements including a classic voice sample and a soothing and delicate piano line.

Wicklow's Automatic Tasty concludes the EP with another killer analogue jam, 707 percussion, a Railway Raver-esque bassline, and AT's trademark pads and synth melodies combine to make 'Welcome Ohm Luv' another classic from the machines of Mr.Tasty.

Released by: Lunar Disko Records
Release/catalogue number: LDR_07
