Adryan - The Jazzer's Slight Return EP

Cunningly, The Jazzer's Slight Return EP from the brilliantly-named Adryan Pietrasch (of Lemon Popsicle fame) comprises two tracks, Slight Return and yes, The Jazzer. And post-minimal deep/tech house is what's on offer.

As with a lot of this kind of tackle, there's not huge amounts to say. Slight Return has some nice organ action on its Original Mix that the Mattias Vogt remix sadly dispenses with, along with the long-ish breakdown, the result being a more Berlin-sounding pass that's probably better for dancefloor action, but loses some of the original's quirky charm. The Jazzer is more of a spaced-out, late night kind of affair, and my pick of the EP; this time its Russ Gabriel who takes the remix veins, keeping things nice and deep but giving the track a slightly more cinematic/proggified feel that's not strictly necessary to these ears. All four tracks are playable, for sure. But I'm definitely feeling Adryan's originals over the remixes.
