Mano Le Tough-In My Arms

Been getting into alot of stuff out of Future Times and the like recenty. Most 4/4 has been not doing it for me of late to be honest. However I'm loving the dreamy and atmospheric sound of these kinds of releases which have so much more going on than your standard house/techno of late and all at the same time, still worthy of any dancefloor I want to be on.

Prins Thomas's label Internasjonal hasn't let us down either in 2011. Already we've been treated to  a stunning Mark E remix of DJ Ageishi & Ackin's 'Rain Parade' and this week drops Discodrome's 'Build A House' featuring remixes from Prins Thomas and Tensnake.



Arguably the label's finest release of 2011 has come in the shape of Irishman Mano Le Tough's 'In My Arms' 12".  The title track is a sombre, reflective but strangely upbeat piece of beautiful electronic music.The B-sides aren't bad either, 'Dropping Bombs' is a electronic house chugger with swirls of other worldy shit going down. On the flip we have ten minute epic 'Those Lights Are Lives', which like the whole EP has a hynoptic like quality to it, with the capacity to take you away from the grey skies for a short but worthwhile interlude.
