DJ Mourad returns to heat up the summer with some splendid remixes of his Trouble Funk track from the Sea of Soul EP.Mourad is a part of the latest wave of true Detroit music makers; however, his Swedish base and Tunisian beginings adds a certain Euro-chic and spicy flavours to the urban industrial soul of motor city. Mentored by Arron Carl and Manuel Perez, Mourad has been 'one-to-watch' for a couple of years but releases on Wallshaker, MinimalSoul and Nice & Nasty have established him as a tour de force of Detroit style techno.Alongside DJ 3000, Arne Weinberg, Erell Ranson et al his sound represents the latest phase or wave of hi-tech soul and the original Trouble Funk epitomised that; however, the remixes showcase the emerging talents of Nice & Nasty and its very own legion of melodic techno generals.The French King of melodic techno Erell Ranson drops a wonderful deep piece of funk, the German duo Elpierro and Nachklangmusik recreate the sound sin their own image and Elpierro goes deep and penetrating whilst Nachklangmusik goes sci fi and atmospheric. The package is complete by new Belfast bad boy Ronan Scullion aka Pseudonym who leaves Detroit in the past and creates a Juan Atkins, 4 Hero style future funk version.Early support from Anderson Noice, Aubrey Saei, Andrew Duke, Detroit Techno Militia, Anton Banks,John Selway, Rennie Foster, MadBen, Slam, DJ Misjah and according to Laurent Garnier it is 'Simply Brilliant', Luke Slater calls it 'Authentic' and Marco Bernardi said it was a 'Great Package'. Tons of more people supported it and continue to support it with many, many chartings in Resident Advisor for example, but listen for yourself, you'll understand what I am saying and what the others claim. This is a serious piece of music by a serious producer.
For Greece's Echovolt Records sixth outing Entro Senestre offers four slamming neo-underground dance tracks. After his superb first e.p on New York label WT Records this promising newcomer weaves his own thread of melodic techno, Chicago and deep house tailoring a fine sophomore release.
