Tracklist:
A: Oracle B1: Trytosphere B2: Oracle (Arjuna Schiks remix)

Shortinfo:
Sébastien Léger delivers two solid originals and is backed up by Arjuna Schiks' trippy dreamy remix.
Oracle has a French house sound to it characteristic of Léger with a Moroderesque arpeggio bassline. His excellent production skills shine brightest when he plays the keys in the second break. Trytosphere is a somewhat new direction for the Frenchman; a sunny track with a Balearic feel to it. A real summer soundtrack. Arjuna Schiks adds a trippy take on the original with a nice upbeat energetic groove layered on top of a spacey bell and synth soundscape which echoes in the background.

Tracklist:
A: Horns Of Glory B1: The Earth From Above B2: Horns of Glory (Vince Watson reshape)
Shortinfo:
Karim Sahraoui has been producing gems for many years under various names such as Djinxx, Soul Monkey and Electronique Resistance. After a break 2014 saw his return to the business under his real name and producing music that is closer to him than ever. Releases included the future classic Eternal Life EP pt 1 on Derrick May's Transmat and appearances on labels such as Cocoon.

The A-side features the epic 10-minute original version of 'Horns Of Glory' on which Karim takes his time to unfold the story of the track: A journey filled with beautiful melodies and rhythms that paint a lush landscape of sound. Side B features 'The Earth From Above' which again has a fairy-tale feeling to it. The B2 is Vince Watson's pumping and powerful remix of 'Horns Of Glory' which gives the track an energetic hypnotic quality and rounds off the package well.

This side: 1: Vortex 2: Shimmer
Shortinfo:
Loveland returns for the second release on their newly revamped record label Loveland Recordings and Ian O'Donovan does the honours. The Irish producer was catapulted to Loveland's attention when Adam Beyer closed the 2014 Loveland Festival with 'Vortex'. Since then Loveland's mailbox and Facebook have been bursting with requests for 'that amazing track from Adam's set'. Much to Loveland's delight Ian was willing to release the highly anticipated anthem on their record label and the Vortex EP was born. His four track EP for Loveland Recordings kicks off with the title track. The well rounded package also includes Shimmer which shows Ian's warmer Detroit influenced side. Flip it over to find two intense techno tracks 'In The Pale Moonlight' and 'Undercurrent' which are closer to the sound of his recent Drumcode release 'The Border'. Ian O'Donovan's EP follows up the double 12" celebrating 20 years of Loveland with seven A-sides from the likes of Anthony Rother, Aril Brikha, Arjuna Schiks, Egbert, Dosem, Mathew Jonson and Vince Watson.

The vinyl showcases 7 exclusive tracks on two 12"discs.
