MLTD007 MIKE WALL LOOSE CHANGES EP RELEASE DATE: 11/02/2008 DIGITAL TWO WEEKS LATER TRACKLIST: A1. LOOSE CHANGES A2. FONOKULT B1. FONOKULT (SKOOZBOT REMIX) B2. THE SWAN Call us old-fashioned, but we love the sound of needle hitting plastic as much as anyone. We released a string of eight excellent EPs and two compilations online, we thought it was about time we made something you can feel between your fingers as well as between your ears. For our first vinyl release we’re very pleased to have Mike Wall on board. Following some very strong releases and remixes for various labels such as Safari, Merestief and Produkt Schallplatten, Mike delivers a barnstorming EP for Metroline. It all starts with the deep percussive roller that is Loose Changes. Fusing elements of Sahko-esque minimalism with jacking percussion and paranoia-inducing synth stabs to create a unique atmospheric soundscape. Fonokult is a bit more playful... with a slightly warmer feel and nice uplifting percussion loops. As with Loose Changes, the structure of the track is fluid and unpredictable. It keeps you on your toes! The Skoozbot remix of Fonokult is very special. The man behind one of this summer’s big surprises (Next To Monchhichi, released on delivers another revelation. What starts out as a spacious, dubbed-out take on the original quickly turns into a floor filler as an infectious bassline winds its way into and through the tune. Mike rounds things off with The Swan. Solid, floor-focus beats combine with razor sharp percussion to create an intense pounder. There’s even a huge snare roll hidden in there for anyone who really misses the 1990s!
