The Scenery label is now relatively well established after its first few releases, with discerning DJs and dancers everywhere lapping up the rough and raw electronic offerings. Label boss ASOK steps up with the next release, and that it comes with a remix from Dutchman Borris Bunnik in his Versalife guise is the icing on the cake. Having released on labels like M>O>S before now, ASOK is well versed in proper house music as this new EP proves. It kicks off with the misty eyed nostalgia of 'Hunter', a mid tempo jam that drifts along with frazzled synth lines offset by more bittersweet melodies. Well-programmed drums underpin the whole thing and it leaves you feeling cast adrift in some deep space cavern. Delsin and Clone associate, Versalife, reworks the same track. His take reimagines it as a kinetic sub aquatic affair laden with celestial chords, rubbery basslines and soothing ambient soundscapes. It's then back to ASOK for 'Cabal', a pad laced jam that glows warm and radiates heat as soft edged percussion and increasingly jacking beats propel the vibe along. Some fine and bulbous basslines eventually gurgle into the mix to add some serious weight, and molten acid also characterises the second half of this most emotive affair. Last but not least, Millennium 2.2 picks up the tempo - a well-driven deep house affair with swirling pads adding swathes of scale to proceedings. Roughshod analogue lines, glistening keys and a greyscale mist all form nebulous clouds that pull you right into the core of the track and leave you feeling as if you're in another world.
