FEEDBACKS:

Lee Bradley (Fabric, Turnmills, Ministry of Sound, Gatecrasher): Great release, all quality tracks.. will be playing: Tom Pooks - Yessid, & Vas Floyd - deep house soul (JP and Jones Deep Remix).love both of them
Solomun (Diynamic Music, Liebe Detail, Dessous, Sonar Kollektiv):House music from the best side. Will play it! A1 and B2 are the tracks for me.
Marc Cotterell (FM Recordings):what can i say, well another great vinyl release for nightdrive… something tells me , that things are only going to get better for this great underground label. The tracks that stand out for me are jeff bennett remix of raygun. deep moody beats with late night stabs that drift in as the tracks progress’s . all rounded up to a late night feel, top track.
Kriss Kortz aka. Life Recorder (FCom):Another great release!! The Neurotron remix for Alectric is really beautiful Man!! I feel this Deep house soul remix by JP and Jones too.
St. Thomas (Speicher/Kompakt, Moovment Records, RTS FM):I think that is the best of the force releases…!!! My favourite is the remix of Vas Floyd (JP and Jones), it is so beautiful… I love the chord pad in “Selected Moments” by Neurotron, nice job, the deep music I like for dancefloors! Tom Pooks track is more tech house; that is a mixture of all his influences: minimal, hypnotic music, deep tech-house. Congratulation to all the artist & NDM.

Nhar - Infected

Nhar from France is doing the first release. This fine & talented electronic producer is well known for his music income quality. Ever signed on Meerestief, Mobilee, Plak and more..He deliver for this release two minimal and groovy tracks.
In the big side the title ”infected”. Groovy track with vocode vocals, the characteristics sounds and bleeps of Nhar. Livened up with a monster bass and an amazing break, sing it “infected”!!..”please forget” is a pure minimal track like as he so definitely knows how to make them, big kick, air synths, galloping bass, a success !Dave dk remixed this track, he kept the essential and put the groove to the maximum. Adding a wonderful synth until a floorfiller break, thanks Mr Dave.
Bonus track for the digital release: Nhar “supadroopa”.

ARTISTS FEEDBACKS:
DENIS KARIMANI / REMUTE (AREAL, LIEBE DETAIL, NUM, TURBO)

GREG DELON (BOXER / CONFUSED)

He was born in 1973 and grew up in Ludvika in Sweden. From the age of 2 he was a big Abba-fan, but then he  discovered electronic music in the early 80s. Day in and out he used to listen to the music of Depeche Mode, Howard Jones, Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michael Jarre and he was a vinyl-junkie by the age of 14.He was fortunate to discover bands like Skinny Puppy, Front 242 and The Klinik at an early stage, and experienced the rise and fall of Electronic Body Music and the birth of european techno.He started making music with a Korg Poly 800 II and a Roland TR-505 in 1986.In the early 90’s I was getting bored with the hard and aggressive attitude of industrial and EBM and found solace in bands like Cocteau Twins, Lush, Dead Can Dance and The Cure. Then something happened that suprised him, MTV introduced him to a new kind of electronic sounds thathe found most appealing. Thanks to Chill Out Zone he discovered artists like FSOL and Aphex Twin. And while further investigating the developing “intelligent” scene, he was introduced to harder techno and acid. 1997 he quits, thinking that some day it would be cheap enough to make the best possible music with only a computer. And that day came much sooner than he anticipated.Since 2000 he’is making tracks again and this time he was so satisfied with the result that he decided to send out some demos. Now he is releasing records..
