  • Shinichi, the little brother of Yoshitoshi, have a string of releases coming out shortly that are just superb. Bernard Leon Howard III is leading the charge for the label with this extremely hot doublepack. Marscarter is being featured on some of the hottest compilations of late including, Satoshi Tommeii's GU:Nubreed, Chris Fortier's Bedrock 3 and John Creamer's and Stephane K's Bedrock 4. The original rolls along at a nice and steady pace with vocals taking lead for the majority of this mix. Light rolling synths and metallic type basslines are mixed around with a light slapping of a bass guitar. Morel's pink noise mix stays close to the original but tones down the ingredients and adds a little more funk. Joshua's dub 1 is a great track from this collection with a chunky beat and constant guitar and bass guitar riffs. The synth turns more into an organ and makes this mix fly. Debo and Porter's deported vocal goes deep. The air is filled with haunting basslines and the filtering of the vocal works very well. Tweaks and turns add to this atmospheric mix. I can see why this release has grabbed so much interest with a variety of tracks reaching across many genres and outstanding production.
