DOUBT - REMEMBER FONO - MISTRESS

Release number three on Mistress Recordings arrives and it's clear DVS1's curatorial hand is helping to craft an open ended music policy for the label that touches all corners of the dancefloor and beyond. Given that Marquis Hawkes adopted the Juxta Position guise to inaugurate the label, it's tempting to suggest that Doubt is the work of an established artist working under alias especially given the standard of production here. Lead track "Remember Fono" sounds like STL mixing strange vocal snippets into his defined palette, whilst "Not Before" is probably one of the weirder dub techno tools you will hear this week, with all manner of strange found sounds and vocal harmonies lurking deep beneath. B Side opener "Captain Hours" keeps you guessing as to Doubt's identity thanks to it's UK bass tropes, whilst "Noc" is a supremely grimey techno tool.
