More tech-tinged deep vibes here, courtesy of MidiDropMusic (AKA the London duo of Freerange bloke Matt Masters and one Mr Cenzo), whose excellent The Truth was featured on the Truth About Kwango EP reviewed on here last month (click or just scroll down). There are two tracks, The Release and The Other Side Of Right, plus a slightly more brash remix of the former (the Dos Compradres Taco Truck Remix, if you will). Generally speaking, it's a slightly more straight-up deep house vibe this time out… which is all to the good. And it's the lush pads on the original mix of The Release that are doing it most for me.
About the label: Acryl is a deep house imprint based in Switzerland run by DJ/producer Da Funk, known to his Mum as Daniel Kneubühler. The label's website claims the idea is to release "house music [that is] deep, techy, forward-thinking and innovative" and I'd say they've pretty much nailed it. Acryl first came to my attention via the rather spiffing 5th birthday (!) label comp In The Night Vol 2, so that'd be a good place to start if you want to hear more. It's got a Harold Heath track on it, if that helps.
In the meantime, you can also check out MidiDropMusic on MySpace.
