Popping up on labels like 8bit, supernature and tsuba, releasing quality tech-house and club-assured cuts since 2008, we’re delighted to welcome german producer alex niggemann to poker flat. this new ep raises niggemann’s game with three tracks taking in heavy acid bass, chicago-house vibes and inventive, smooth flowing arrangements. ‚lately’ is a real stomper in the classic poker flat tradition. haunting, acidic, modern, club guaranteed! niggemann twists a spooky and funky synth line around a heavy old-school house vibe, complete with a thoughtful smokey-voiced naration. ‚madness’ lifts the tension higher with a sub-heavy chigaco bass attack, 2011 style. alex has fused the best of both old and new and found a new sound that leaves behind rigid sound in favour of more funky, warmer and totally fresh vibes! the ep concludes with ‚smash your face’, a groovy houser that rolls wonderfully with more growling square wave bass and plenty of details to keep the flow nothing short of riveting! tracklisting: a. lately b1. madness b2. smash your face.
