DONE 042EP
|
"Educution's disco mission continues into volume 2 of his Ting Chuggy series. Opening with 'Screaming Swan,' an infectious monster of a track bearing the hallmarks of a classic house anthem. At its onset listeners of the more intellectual variety may find its relentless screaming somewhat disconcerting, but we are confident that by its climax the wiggle of hips will triumph over the general thought process. Dancefloor tests on this number have resulted in a 3:4 bass to sweat ratio and a bounce rate increase of 99.99% when compared with other leading brands. Side A finishes with 'Locked Swan 1' the first of 2 pitched up remixes where our swan gets faster and angrier over a monstrous kick that will push the limits of any system and keep it there for as long as deemed fit (it's a locked groove!). 'Reloveyoution' gets side B off to a deep chuggy start with bass, strings and beats pushed in layers through the filterbank eventually exploding out the other side. 'Yer Aul One Loves This' although being dedicated to your mother has attracted the attention of Ben Sims, demonstrating that beefy filter shredded disco will always be right at home in technoland at +8 (that's what the sliders for kiddies!). Volume 2 concludes with 'Locked Swan 2.' More avian locked groove action in pure house bounce mode."

MINIMISE 021EP
|
"Educution takes your mind, twists it into string, ties it in knots and leaves you begging him to do it again. As the ominous, warped, stacked vocal chant of 'Man Versus Man Beast' blasts forth from the turntable from the first moments of this release, it's clear that Educution is in control and he's probably the one who spiked your drink. The title track twists and turns in all directions, scrambling your brain with weird vocals and raspy synths. It's intense, it's psychedelic, it's Educution! Flip over and discover swinging, skipping loops splitting, twisting and caving in on each other while layers of idiosyncratic percussion build and warp above them. Extremely claustrophobic and intense with layers of feedback and noise but also somehow very lovely, manifesting many of the contradictions at the heart of the man beast himself. So, who is Educution? An Irish producer and DJ with many years of experience, already the owner of such unlikely aliases as 'Booger' and 'Ting Chuggy.' Get set to hear more from him in the months ahead as it looks like he's going to become a household name. The phrase 'instant classic' was coined for records like this."
