A second antidote to the winter chill from San Fran’s OM Records, putting an established DJ (Hipp-E) alongside new talent in Style Of Eye aka Linus Eklow from Sweden. Eklow’s mix is a lot of fun, with bleeps and strangely designed riffs flitting around early on, before things take a turn for the dark side half way through, thanks to Marc Romboy & Stephan Bodzin, Oscar and Worthy. It’s an ambitious mix, full of promise – while Hipp-E provides the greater assurance, starting with deep, cool house and progressing to Killowatts and Deepchild, free to apply some groovy basslines. With a strong closing section from Dead Set, Unstrung Zeros and Aaron Sontag, this is a house mix full in body and soul, complementing the jagged edges of Style Of Eye extremely well.
