Edward delivers his latest collection of works, the ‘Eddie Green’ EP via Smallville Records this July,comprised of four originals.For the past decade and a half, Frankfurt-original Gilles Aiken, better known to most as simply, Edward, has beenunveiling his productions regularly via the likes of his most regular home Giegling, but also Baby Ford & Eon’sTrelik, White, Die Orakel or DFA, plus teaming up with Ricardo Villalobos in 2020 for their Disordered RhythmMetronomy project on Perlon. Here though, we see Edward mark his debut for Smallville Records, a fitting homefor his deep, dynamic and hypnotic style which regularly blurs the lines of House, Techno and beyond.Up first is ‘Primal Dream’, a raw and reduced journey through modulating synth flutters, squeaky percussivetwitches and a bumpy, robust rhythm section. ‘Blue Glue’ follows and diverges into a more mystical sonic worldwith haunting chants, resonant synth licks, meditative chimes and ethereal textures intertwined with crisp, crunchydrums.Title-track ‘Eddie Green’ opens the B-side, embracing a more dubbed out, deep techno aesthetic via murky chordswells, clattering organic percussion, throbbing low end pulsations and vocoded spoken word vocal lines. Theaptly title ‘So Slow’ then rounds out the release, dropping the tempo and shifting focus Edward’s more jazz-tingedinfluences with wandering piano melodies and soulful vocal chants uttering the track’s title, underpinned byshuffled drums and waves of sporadic oscillating synth.

Bari-based producer Frhanks visits Bucharest via Chicago on this organic and entirely distinctive EP for Lisbon label Welt Discos. ‘Bonus Beat’ is a raw blend of jazz and jack trax that leaps straight out of the Music Box to slap you round the face. The extended meditation of ‘Spring’ adorns a minimal groove with delicately plucked improvisation, striking a pastoral mood for the first glimmers of daylight. On the flip, ‘When Is Time To Go Home’ trips along like a late morning walk back to the tent, caught somewhere reassuring between reverence and whimsy.
