LoFi Soundsystem VA

• My track De Natura Rerum (using "Mildiou" moniker) has been released early September on Echospace's sublabel Intrusion. It is available as a 12" grey marble vinyl on Interstellarsounds.com, Boomkat.com, Rubadub.co.uk and Smallfish.co.uk. The digital version comes with a 5th track - Intrusion remix of De Natura Rerum - and is available as an exclusive on Beatport.com.

Track list :

• A1 - Intrusion - Velocity In A Minor
• A2 - Lo-Fi Soundsystem - De Lions Den
• B1 - Mildiou - De Natura Rerum
• B2 - Intrusion - OceanView

"Following up the Intrusion & Paul St. Hilaire project comes a new release from the intrusion imprint which offers a killa selection of steppa's riddims and tropical grooves"

"Intrusion's "Velocity In A Minor" is all about being playful with a sequence, splicing a riddim, stimulating the mind while shuffling your feet. This concludes with the mysterious Lo-Fi Soundsystem up next who make their first 12" appearance on Intrusion (Previously recording under a variety of names strictly on 45) their powerful "De Lions Den" has been given a second lease on life from its scarce 45 release, (which was only available at a few small record shops in Jamaica) this island groove is filled with the dankiest skanks, a melodica on acid and a bassline deeper than the ocean. This mystical midnight groove is given a rework in a 4/4 rhythm and effects from deep space, behind the controls is Intrusion front man Stephen Hitchell who leaves us with a tasty embellishment in fat riddims and icey cold electronics."

"The B side opens with Mildiou's "De Natura Rerum" which crosses into territory comparable to Intrusion's "Tswana Dub" or the atmospheric dub side of Rhythm & Sound, a powerful mind melter which does all the rights things in all the right time. The closing "Oceanview" paints a picture of just that, leaving you to wander off into the ocean breeze while sinking into its smoky green vapour haze."
