The Berlin-based partnership of long-time friends Steve Bug and Clé has reared many a classy deep house tune in its time… Their classic 'Silicon Ballet' EP from 2007 led us heavily into their sound, combining melodic, blissful elements with the heavy vibes of the old-school acid days. Now we're due another full EP with 'Seven Hills.'
The title track is a refined, long-playing stormer - perfect for the coming months as the summer weather stirs up open-air fever! From humble beginnings a riotous, epic track grows fusing the Poker Flat boys' patented analog production and natural ear for a melody. Heartfelt strings draw the track to its finale as a teasing breakdown arrives around the 6 minute mark. This is a real slow-burner in the best sense of the phrase.
The more urgent 'Monkeyshoulder' drives a deep blazing night-time vibe all the way home. Smooth, filtering chords and spacey stabs swirl in a magical futuristic-yet-classic house jam. Simply deadly in the right moment, this bright and dynamic production really does justice to the pair's talents.
Tracklisting:
A. Seven Hills
B. Monkey Shoulder

Dear music-lovers, please welcome a so-called dream team: Steve Bug & Clé! Steve Bug‘s imprints Poker Flat, Dessous and Audiomatique are essential in today’s music circuit and from time to time and in between his crazy gig schedule, he mixes famous compilations like Fuse in April this year and the forthcoming Fabric in November. Busy times indeed. Clé is already best known as one half of our one-of-a- kind duo the Märtini Brös, who have been releasing on Poker Flat since the early days and are an inherent part of the Poker Flat family.Mr. Poker Flat and Mr. 50% Märtini Brös recently stuck their heads together and produced an EP for us. „Iron Daily“ on the a-side, is a track that perfectly combines the skills of the two. The result is an interesting mixture of funktional dancefloor thunder and stripped- down old-school influences. The b-side holds „Behind The Curtains“, a fantastic opener for advanced clubbers. A metronome, a single hihat, short bass drops and some warm and epic chords begin this brilliant track, snippets of handclaps, kicks and a fleetfooted hihats guide the track for four minutes to its final starting point to get the party started. Not to miss.
