As the European summer draws to a close, the next Rekluse release takes a brief change in direction and offers up something a little lighter to accompany the last of the hazy rays. After the previous electronic madness from Simon Stokes & Mr Copy, Loco & Jam and Kiko, Rekluse are joined for this release by LA based artist Erphun.

Erphun has had a pretty hectic summer himself, appearing on Steve Lawler‘s ‘Viva’, Dave Seaman‘s ’Audio Therapy‘, Oliver Huntemann‘s ’Ideal Audio‘ and Stephen Bodzin’s ‘Hertzblut’. Not a bad run at all. With previous releases and remixes on ’Mutekki‘, ’Saw Recordings‘, ’Excentric Muzik‘ and forthcoming releases on ’Bedrock‘ (+ John Digweed‘s new comp) as well as ’8 Sided Dice‘, this guy has had a busy couple of years…

The title track is a distinct driving vocal led number that blends a variety of influences - resulting in something dark and chuggy that should appeal to both tech heads and prog fans alike. ‘Order Of Chaos’ is more of the traditional Rekluse stock and sounds like a race through the opening credits of a sci-fi movie. ‘Soul Mates For The Night’ rounds the EP off on a deeper tip with a hypnotic trip, this one doesn’t rush as it slowly winds and develops around a vocal that will keep you hooked as it fully unravels.

To complete the package Mr Henry Von (joint label owner of Rekluse with Fergie) has reworked Tu Sueno, keeping the dark and the chug whilst giving it some of his trademark bite and re-marrying the vocal to the breakdown, keeping things shaking until there is no where left to go but to bring that beat straight back in…

Support from Carl Cox, Stephan Bodzin, Nick Warren, Stacey Pullen, James Lavelle, Hell, Spektre, Slam & more…
