Moscow producer NPhonix has been quietly building a name for himself with strong releases on Audio Culture and Mindtech over the last six months, now he looks to step up a gear with a quality EP on ShiftingPeaks. Opener Getting Run Down loops up a nagging hip hop sample over skittering dukey beats and washes drifting pads and spacey keys over the top for a hypnotic late night groover. ‘Reach Out’ goes at a calmer pace, but revolves around intense builds, insistent polyrhythms and detroity riffs for a bit of hypnagogic drama. On memix duties, Om Unit does what you hope he’s going to do, injecting Reach Out with seemingly infinite swathes of space and bottom end, looping about at his own pace, but with that constant sense of Om Unit purpose . Nphonix closes out proceedings with a tweaky, rubbery –acid style workout that will find friends in bass and house camps .
