( FH 08 ) ONIRIK / VOIGTMANN / TOLGA FIDAN / PABLO TARNO - FH08 EP (12" ) - Finest Hour Germany

 For the eighth audio missive on their quietly impressive Finest Hour imprint, Onirik and Pablo Tarno have invited Voigtmann and Tolga Fidan along for the ride. The result is a multi-artist EP that boasts a wealth of quality material. Onirik steps up first, adding jazzy keys and spacey electronics to a cut that sits somewhere between vintage Detroit techno and bustling Chicago deep house. Voigtmann's amusingly titled "Side Boob Cooler" is a lo-fi, analogue-rich bubbler, while Tolga Fidan's "TER345" is a near perfect fusion of Detroit techno sonics and analogue deep house dynamics. Before the EP draws to a close, Pablo Tarno steals the show with the hazy warmth, dubby electronics and sweeping melodies of "Elle Tea Jay", a fine chunk of analogue deep house/electro fusion.
