Here comes a Highgrade split EP. Marcus Homm and Ludwig Coenen share the honours on one record, and instead of competing for the glory, both producers compliment each other perfectly. Markus Homm, the global player, starts off as assured as ever with another great track. “Golden Glow” rolls towards a dramatic stage for hysteria. Homm takes the listener in with a heavy and richly sweet narrative style. “Matches” brings even more excitement, pushing forward with brilliantly entangled sounds that hit you more in the hips than the stomach, telling a tale of promise in the early morning hours. Ludwig Coenen, the man from infamous Frankfurt, brings dancing into the realms of the zoo! With “It’s Not a Zoo” he manages to combine various sounds into a funky and functional harmony. The second track “Mind Your Head” breaks the standard mould and uses a broad sound palette to construct a new and unique field of maximum funk. In addition to the vinyl record, we get three more great digital tracks from both of the boys. Homm shows on “Upper Deck” and “Victoria Harbour” his consistency and quality. Distinct and clearly defined sounds without any excess baggage. Coenen’s contribution “Gardenstate” also delivers the elements that make his tracks so special. Twisted complexity that comes from way down deep.
