Format: Vinyl
Release Date: Feb 23rd, 2009
Distributed by: Z-Audio
Cat #: STNSN001

Bristol producer and Urban Scrumping label head Phaeleh graces the first Surface Tension vinyl release with enough melody, flavor and sub-bass for everyone.

Starting off the A side with "Fire", vocalist Ngaio throws down some soulful vocals over a dancefloor-smashing bassline that envelops you in sonic warmth and seismic wub. Ostensibly halfstep beats are given momentum by the bassline and the cut up breaks underpinning it all. You will be singing this one to yourself for WEEKS. Promise.

Flip it over for "Isolate", a more chilled tune with melodic string bits and ambient vocals washing over solid bass drops. Spacious sounds and textures meld together for a decidedly melodic and musical take on the dubstep sound.
"Phaeleh's music - and I use the word "music" purposefully, not "beats" or "tunes" - is quite really some of the best unsigned stuff I've heard this year." - Christine Vaccine (Hotflush)
" 'Fire' went over BIG [at Sub Swara]. Pretty much the tune that turned the night into a party." - Sharmaji (Sub Swara / Soul Motive)

Available @ fine record shops everywhere.

When I heared "Fire" the word Muggy came to mind, which is actually the opposite from the title , sort of.

Big release btw, must have this now.

MUGGY!

Can I just point out that a one word answer doesn't test your "grammar" skills, but your vocabulary?

Can I have one for making the most mindlessly pedantic post of the day? 8)

I'll listen later and make a real entry!

On my blog: "Two songs from Phaeleh of Surface Tension Recordings Fire (F.Ngaio) and Isolate weave an audio mosaic of juxtaposed elements; Water & Fire creating a spirit that is both subtle and self confident. After hearing these tracks you will know what it sounds like to listen to liquid flames."
