Kicking off the sixth various artists record, ‘The Works’, on the Detroit-based Infolines label is Shaun Reeves’ ‘Playground’. The co-founding member of the Visionquest project utilises a low-slung groove with snaking, sizzling hats above while mysterious bell-like keys toll in the background. Up next, Infolines label founder ADMN and Aran Daniels, one-half of the Remote Viewing Party alias who featured on the previous Infolines VA, team up for ‘50 Gallon Drums’, a wonky trip boasting wild and whirring percussion in an infectious drunken groove working perfectly alongside crunchy synth-lines.
On the B-side, the anonymous Bendersnatch returns to Infolines with ‘Doppler’, taking us deep under the waves for a submarine expedition. The sonar bleeps among electrifying zaps, a steady techno beat leading the way. Closing out this fantastic next instalment on the Infolines label is Snack Time founder Gino, who brings us ‘Bonedog’, finishing the release on a high with psychedelic synth elements and an iconic, earworm vocal over a slick groove - secret weapon energy!
Infolines, a dynamic collective of Producers, DJs, and friends hailing from Detroit, is renowned for its compilations that showcase the distinct styles of its artists. Following the success of Infolines 005, ‘CAID’, which garnered support from artists like Anfisa Letyago, Paco Osuna, and Korea Town Acid, the label is all set to launch its superb sixth record.
