Highly Recommended. Marieu is back on his own imprint Enlightened Wax after a couple of critically and acclaimed EPs on Hypercolour.'Ultra thin' is a sure hit dance floor filler manufactured with super catchy funky bites wrapped on heavy rhythms and crunchy 8bit percussion. On the same side, 'Way Out' is a premium hi-energy filtered house anthem.
On the B side, the original mix of 'Manner' is a mellow deeper cut built on a long spoken word tale floating over hypnotic beats, while the remix of the young talented Federico Brasi is an acid jacking minimalistic reinterpretation featuring solid vintage flavored drums.

Solid stomping galactic techno powered by wide filtered discoid samples is the trademark sound of Marieu, and the A side of the fifth settlement of his own label Enlightened Wax discloses his manipulation talent at its best. 2 Funky acidic dancefloor killers with a shrouded hoodian influences.
For the B side, he recovered 2 gold dust recordings of the misterious Nightjars.Two broken bass driven gems of warehouse garage deeply inspired by Tempa earliest releases and reminiscents of Horsepower Productions early works. 'Mnemonic' has been played already for more than 2 years by artists such as Ben Ufo, Pariah and Blawan before being pressed on wax by Marieu.
Highly recommended! Enlightened Wax is proud to harbor on the side A
of its fourth chapter all the dirtiness of the legendary DJ Octopus
(Muscle Records) has been. 'The Black Face' is a funky, abrasive,
filthy track and 'Heavy Breathing' is nasty twisted house anthem.
Marieu, the boss of the label showcases on the B side two sci-fi
inspired cuts. 'Talk to me' is a jacking piece of quasar techno,
while 'About You' is a smoother delightful excursion into broken beats
territories. Vinyl Only!
