Prepare for the summer season with this second four-track-vinyl release of Channel X’s debut album “X Files". Producers André and Mirko start out with “Behind the Mirror", a track that perfectly encapsulates the funkiness that they manage to inject into minimal techno. Then, with “Monday” they have created the ultimate Berlin afterhour wooden minimal tech-track. If there were a track right for 10 am at renowned Berlin’s adults playground Bar 25, this would be it. On the flip it’s more of the musical circus-infused polka tech-house that we love this city for: “Circus Bizzare” is full of strange effects, short vocal snippets and percussions while “Marvel", the last track of the EP, simply remains a wonderful straight piece of grooving minimal house music that you just can’t stop moving to.

Fresh Meat / Berlin Mitte Ins: “Good and groovy tracks, will all work on the dancefloor perfectly. Album could have been a bit more diverse though.”
