Releases 04th April 2012 Label (CW 14) Artist Release Dan Curtin Microdrama EP CAT Available at Beatport since 21th March 2012 The fact that, after more than twenty years in the industry, Dan Curtin‘s music is as innovative and vital as ever before is testament to the skills and strengths of the man himself and the high regard in which his music is held. With over 70 singles, 9 albums and a discography that dates back to first releases for Detroit’s 33RPM in 1992, the Cleveland born producer can proudly wear the affectionate title of a ‘veteran’ of the music scene. Yet whilst the title refers to time past, its Dan’s ability stay firmly in the present that sees him remain one of the most influential producers of today. The very fact that Curtain is never constrained by style or genres is perhaps the key factor to his success. Having seen releases on Peacefrog, Strictly Rhythm, Tuning Spork and Soma to name but a few, its Anja Schneider’s Mobilee imprint where Dan has really found a home since relocating to Berlin in 2003. A string of remixes and singles, including November’s “A Study In You“, are backed by his 2010 full-length opus “Lifeblood.” A label boss himself, Dan’s ‘Metamorphic‘ imprint has now reached release #025, providing a platform for him to experiment further under his many pseudonyms such as, Planetary. Today Dan joins the Bass Culture family and presents what for is us, one of the most impressive and diverse releases on the label to date. Variety really is the key as Dan opens with the piano-laden title track “Microdrama.” “Calia” evokes balearic memories with its evocative horns and sparkling synth riffs whilst “Time Will Tell” takes a deeper mysterious trip with spritely key melody and whispered vocal. Final cut “Wasted Stranger” sees Dan ring the bells as he brings the ep to a close to a wonderful percussive workout.

He may have been best known for his acid techno recordings as DJ Apollo in the nineties but in recent years it’s his work under the Dirty McKenzie moniker that has been gaining him support, particularly from the Nu-Disco and house scene. Now Kahalé has embarked upon a new and exciting project, joining forces with Minneapolis singer & pianist Sophia Shorai to form Nobiilo (pronounced No-bee-lo). Shorai was born in Zimbabwe and raised in Minneapolis where her talents as a classically trained jazz pianist led her to become a regular performer on the Jazz circuit. The fusion of musicianship, song writing and production that these two bring to the table makes for a very interesting marriage and sees it’s first fruit with this single, a cover version of Jo Bisso’s 1978 French discofunk classic. The package opens with ‘Dirty McKenzie’s extended mix’, a low-slung funk laden affair that fuses deft guitar licks, disco centric bass and Sophia’s wonderful vocals into a whirlwind of old school dancefloor action. Next up we have UK Nu-Disco pioneers Faze Action at the controls; they take the original parts and rework them into a mix that starts like classic Human League and blossoms into a classic slice of electro disco. To complete the package fellow Minneapolis artist Estate takes the reins and deliver two different and original interpretations, one inspired by their own home town, the other by disco capital, New York city. This may be the first we’ve heard from duo, Nobiilo, but with quality like this it certainly won’t be the last, enjoy.
