shtum strikes back with another fresh talent straight from Leipzig's basements. Having only one EP under his belt the sound of the man that is Leibniz is already pretty impressive. On ''shtum 004'' he seeks out beats between dusty House, his Hip- Hop roots and not-so-typical drum patterns. At first you'll get ''YouAndMe'' which showcases dirty percussion work and that cracking sample over an unstoppable piano melody. ''Feli'' is a House killer track through and through. And when that chord is changing you are so hooked. Thanks to those spooky synths ''PukPukPuk'' sounds like nasty Ambient with heavy beats. That tune surely cuts its own path on the dance floor. Finally, ''Stumm'' feels like one single Rave build-up, but with understatement. You won't get that explosion you are waiting for. Once again, the illustration on the B-side label is by Aram Haydeyan
