First up we have a remix by Canadian Jeremy Glenn (We Play House, Future Classic). Jeremy turns Marcos Cabral's original "Sweet & Sour" into an epic deep house masterpiece. It's reminiscent of Raze's "Break 4 Love" while sounding modern and fresh. On A2 we have the original "Sweet & Sour". Marcos shows his ear for classic ambient music with a 5 minute piece that arpeggiates and delays into outer space. 100% Beautiful DX7 styled sounds throughout. Starting things off on the B-Side is Marcos' "It's On You" (Haunted Club Dub). And it's just that... sounding haunted with freaked out and reversed vocal snippets and jacking drums/bassline combo. A bit on the Murk productions side of things for sure. B2 is "Nothing On My Mind" which opens up with and over saturated bell sound and turns into hi-hat skipping techno with huge rattling build ups. The overlaid vocals filters in and out focus throughout leaving the listener lost in music.

HDR kicks off the new year with a bang. This time we see Marcos Cabral's fledgling NYC label induct some new talent alongside himself. A1 starts the EP with "Times In My Life" by Philadelphia's Billy Werner, a long time DJ, Promoter and player in the philly house scene. His debut track shows us the power of looping samples and how it can create the perfect tension to make people dance. It has just the right amounts of disco finesse and subtle vocal stylings that make this track really stand out. "Sans Snare" on the A-side inside cut comes to us from Boston's Mark Ingram and Brenden Wesley. It reminds us of Prescription Records in a great way! Landing itself on the first track of the B-side is "Cave With You" by Time Reveals (Marcos's new project with synth extraordinaire Susan Domelsmith). This EP will mark Susan's debut into the world of dance music, as she regularly plays for the Brooklyn based rock band Open Ocean. "Cave With You" has all the right ingredients of classic electronic dance music with enough quirkiness to give it loads of charm. Think early Larry Heard in outer space. Wrapping up this Various Artist EP, Marcos Cabral offers us "Tuesday" for the B2 track.

Some of you might know NYC’s Marcos Cabral from his work as half the duo Runaway. Together with Jacques Renault, Runaway has stacked up a slew of releases and remixes over the past few years. The labels they’ve worked for include, DFA, Rekids, Wurst Music Co, Chinatown, I’m A Cliche, Crue-L, Mule, Endless Flight, Need Want, Fina, Solar Disco, Aus, Under The Shade, Plant Music, Turntable Lab, Spectral, Playout, Permanent Vacation, Nervous, Ohm, Tartelet, and their very own label On The Prowl. Their resume is very telling of their musical abilities. This year, Marcos has decided to push the envelope even further and create something a bit more personally reflective…his new label Hamilton Dance Records. Just as the label artwork foreshadows, the presentation becomes blurred. Edits, originals, creative sampling, it’s all lumped together with a certain vision. Special dance-floor tools being the most obvious.
