a fair amount of contrast between each other. For good measure .. we sprinkled in a little

Orlando B. Future Resist EP (Yore / YRE-004ltd)
On Orlando Britain's follow-up to his Yore debut
Beneath the Surface, the UK producer laid down the
new release's material in West London, but its heart
and soul lies an ocean away, as the "Motor City" track
title suggests. Britain's also got a soft spot for
classic house and techno, as evidenced by the title
he's given to the thirty-minute EP.
His first EP had
sold out in seconds and this one, coming in 2 different
coloured vinyl versions is expected to disappear even
quicker. First very limited pressing comes as white vinyl.
The EP's effervescent vibe makes its luscious material all
the more appealing, and so too do tight jacking grooves
that are more likely to soothe than agitate. Another instant
deep house classic. Available from...

Artist: Orlando B Title: Beneath the Surface EP Label: YRE-003LTD (Limited 300 copies / Transparent Green Vinyl) Format: 12" Distr. Word and Sound Release Date: 31.05.2010
Yore returns with the 3rd release on the Yore Limited series.
300 limited copies in green transparent vinyl. A beauty musically and for the eye.
Orlando B. favours the kind of funky and
raw-sounding techno that flourished during the late-'90s and
early-'00s and so naturally invests his maiden voyage on the
Yore imprint with the same kind of classic soul that renders
that earlier era's sound so appealing.
'Beneath the Surface EP' largely focuses on warm house grooves.
'A Feeling' dishes out eight minutes of classic deep house that's also as funky as hell.
A subtle Latin percussion vibe sneaks in at the beginning but
quickly enough the tune rolls out a warm house strut that dominates
thereafter; piano sprinkles, lush strings, and a crisp, hi-hat-spun
groove give the tune added style and flair, as does the insistence
of the titular vocal sample. 'Esoteric' digs into a steamy, bass-driven
house beat that's both raw and funky, then slathers it with a synth
solo that squeals with delight, while 'New York Tale' smoothens its
techno core with warm chords and delicious house swing. 'MJ12' is the
coolest and most techy cut on this diverse four cut ep. Orlando B.
sprinkling billowing dub chords and a spoken voice sample over a
rock-solid tech-house base that will go straight under your skin,
when it hits you on the dancefloor. 300 copies left still.
Go grab yours before it's too late.

Orlando B - Twisted Disco EP, out now on Elektrax Music.
DJ Support: Colin Dale:
It's a killerr 12" mate.....loving all three tracks but it's A2 that's simply killing it for me on a huge scale at the moment.......we need more music like this. A.! is killer too....full of lushness and emotion......giving both max rotation.B.1 is cool but I think you rock it on this one mate......well done.
Dave Angel:
Really like that track 'dreaming of then', takes me back.
Dave Mothersole:
Like all three tracks - best I've heard from you. Both your tracks are great and I'm feeling Colin's mix too. Full support - out and on radio.
Harri (Sub Club):
Both tracks are great as is Colins mix. Full support !!!
Trevor Rockliffe:
Feeling all three joints on here but the mix I prefer the most is Mr G's.
JB (Bastardo Recordings):
Loving the bassline and the key changes in 'Melancholy'. Deep yet with a really nice uplifting old-school vibe to it.

Orlando B - Made In Space EP, out now on Neurotron Music.
4 new tracks out now on Neurotron Music (Night Drive Sub Label). Currently on Beatport but will be out on other stores soon!
Feedback: Dave Clarke:
Soul Jam and Downwards Escalator provide the missing link between Atmosfear/Azymuth/Spyro Gyro
and melodic downtempo techno, genius. Will play gladly on White Noise Radio Show.
Laurent Garnier:
This sounds very VERY good to me. Will play for sure.
Ben Sims:
I'm leaning towards dark house as my fav but all tracks are strong really.
Frank Mueller (beroshima):
lost city is beautiful. will play it as soon as i can grab the vinyl :-)
dark house reminds me to some older eye Q / harthouse stuff. soul jam is ok, and my favourite is downwards escalator.

Remix for Seri is out on the 11th August, check it here:
Silent Hill (Orlando B remix) is a groovy laid back take on the original that strongly references the old school 80's dance vibe. Pads and filter sweeps, house piano riffs and breathy choir 'ahh's' are all in the mix here. Take me back to 'Hacienda'!
Silent Hill (Original Mix) is a track rich in 80's dance and early Detroit Techno references. From its droning pads and Choir 'ahhs' to the portamento leadline in the breakdown, Silent Hill is one for those who appreciate where it all began.
18/05/2009:
New vinyl release on Finest Blend - Wheels In Motion EP:
Solid melodic techno with that soulful touch.
Feedback:"Anyway just want to say Ebb and Flow has been killing it for me over the last few weekends. Great job! Perfect balance between old school and modern sounds and between house and techno." (Bastardo Recordings).
