2. PACIFIC VIBE
3. CLASHING THOUGHTS
4. DREAM STONE
Katsunori Sawa knocks at new gates of electronic music perception with an 4-track single “Entranced” on his own 10 Label. “Random Tool” recalibrates the dance music paradigms with bolshy techno, and "Dream Stone" will have you loose your limbs with falldown vocal melodies and futuristic sound hue dynamics.

Prepare a new dedicated note before dawn. Past and that word, you remember and forget. When I meet you in a dream, you do not recognize me. Everything is connected in such a way that some of them overlap. What is important is invisible to the eye.

Morn, even and next day. Man, woman and child. Can you see the rainbow there on a raining day...

A1. ANCIENT METHODS - CONFUSED VOLTAGE
A2. STEVEN PORTER - DEED
B1. ANNE-JAMES CHATON - ÉVÉNEMENT27
B2. SAWLIN - PAINFULL
*Originally released in August 2011.
Second edition comes with the printed artwork centre-labels.
Nothing will come of nothing. The most exciting music has produced by the perfect unbalance, or wellbalanced - makes you the body pop in your indivisual scenes . The something gratifies the listener's curiosity or personal desires. No more, no less... Everything’s concluded from the beginning.
Our new departure "MU EP" will come of nothing, but living.'Pitch black techno war funk' or 'Industrial mechanics'... the maximum strength industrial funky techno from Ancient Methods.
‘Confused Voltage’ kills the audience with AM first shot at 00m00s and brings out the militant techno with monotone rhythm chords capable of dismantling buildings. Baeks and Trias batter the senses through decaying electro and industrialised beats with the recording process. Savagely modern... Real electronic body music.
The Steven Porter has conducted by Katsunori Sawa and Yuji Kondo, whose recent works on Semantica Records. ‘Deed’ unfurls with the magnificence - growling compressed gear, uniquely ambiguous and XXXXXXX that comes with something. Essential. Heavy. Classical.
French sound-poet Anne-James Chaton is back with another killer track after his previously collaborative release with Alva Noto ‘Unitxt’ on Raster-Noton. His approach is novel. We listen to Anne-James Chaton while gaze into his mouth... Stunning. ‘Evenement27’ has released on German imprint Raster-Noton in March 2011, mastered by Benjamin Joubert. But MU EP version by Naweed “DIRTY” Ahmed. If you are a fan of Chaton, must buy both 10’ and R-N’ versions.
Supreme industrial techno heaviness by Sawlin from the enigmatic label Vault Series. Hitherto unknown... a shady character not quite ready to unmask himself. Throbbing kick-bass, teasing chords, efficient driven percussion instruments, experimental edged traps spring up over the very thick beat while shaving red-zone in peak. A welting basement killer for the dance floor. Play loud.
