From the green-fingered Terrarium collective springs its new label, DayNight Savings. Conceived as an interview series, DayNight Savings invites musicians and artists to share the music that soundtracks their daily and nightly routines. In its incarnation as a label, DayNight Savings #001 presents a streamlined and coherent exploration of this theme; an A-side guides you through the day, and a B-side devotes itself to the night. One side for home listening, with club ready music on the flip.
To start the Day, Gary Wilson’s She Makes Me Think Of Endicott sets out with an atmospheric intro that evokes those tender waking moments. The calm is soon broken by an energetic drop into a joyous Rhodes-driven track with a lilting melody and an addictive beat.
Eric Jackson’s Moments steers us late into the afternoon. A scene-setting synth is coaxed along by a Jazz beat in half-time but this is swiftly replaced by something more rhythmically and texturally complex - the virtuosic live drums doing most of the work. Vicky Flint’s trumpet floats effortlessly over the jungle-esque breaks creating a soundscape for focussed daydreaming. File this in between Rhythm Section and LTJ Bukem.
On the Night side, placid acid producer, Tinman, presents his previously unreleased Stay Gold. Analogue thrives and the pH remains sufficiently low. Flying head first into the early hours of the morning, this peak time acid belter will set any dance floor alight.
Following on from the positive feedback for KRL's "Third" EP (Quintessentials 62), we had to give the standout track "Never Leave" the remix treatment. "Never Leave" is a straight up house track with thosebeats and rhythmic synths, but with the outstanding vocals of Janine Small it makes it a head turner!
The A-side remix, courtesy of Greymatter (Wolf Music, Unique Uncut) keeps the overall vibe of the original, but adds more dirt and bass business ready for club action. The B-side remix courtesy of Quintessentials buddy Loz Goddard (Church, Razor-n-Tape) takes a step into deep broken beat territory while keeping the beautiful vocals. We love both remixes, job's done!
