Dekmantel 10 Years 03 12”

The third EP in this series is from Novel Sound boss and New York techno don Levon Vincent, Dutch synth wizard Legowelt, plus label regulars Joey Anderson and Central. Vincent goes first with ‘UK Spring Vibes’, a deep and rueful roller with his typically well crafted, future sounding synths and delicate glassy piano keys.

Legowelt’s ‘Blue Austral Techno’ is as cosmic and spaced out a track as you would guess from the title and is perfectly blurry and analogue in design, while Anderson’s ‘Opened Gate’ is a deep and late night cut with jacking percussion forcing a groove as golden and majestic chords ring out into the night and truly zone you out.

Last of all, Central impresses with his spacious sense of deep house groove, inventive textures and mixture of the synthetic with the organic in fresh new ways.
