We return with our second release, this time featuring the hotly tipped Andy Ash with two brand new tracks and a sterling remix from Ugly Drums? Ash has been making a name for himself over the last few years releasing for the likes of Chicago?s Stillove4music imprint and the Brooklyn based On the Prowl label. Still in his early twenties Ash has a passion for electronic music derived from his misspent youth, frequenting Dj booths and running club nights in his native Liverpool and it?s that passion that comes out in his own unique take on 21st century house & disco. The ?Broken Nights EP? kicks off with the original version of ?Broken?, a wonderfully languorous slice of laid back slo mo house that fuses together loose limbed percussion, an old school riff and haunting, pitch shifted vocals. The tracks builds in intensity as the arrangement progresses, bringing the piano to the fore and shifting up a gear with hypnotic vocals that give the record a truly balaeric feel, quality stuff. Next up ?Broken? gets the remix treatment from Germany?s Steffen Baldo aka Ugly Drums whose recent release on Quintessentials was a stand out release of 2011. For this remix, Baldo takes things into super deep territory with a version that strips out the pianos and vocals and draws on drums and sparsely used stabs and riffs to build a brilliantly understated groove. Finally we have the excellent ?Distro Yet?, a deep house workout that melds hypnotic hits and pads with a rolling, bass heavy rhythm section to create a mesmerizing work. Added Roland percussion and some frenetic keys join the mix and lift the track towards a superb climax and conclusion of the release.
