Dark Arx Recordings, whose catalogue of dub/techno/garage crossovers I've been following quite closely the past few months have a very special record out next week from one of their lead artists Gerry Read. This follow up to his previous 'Patterns EP' is a vinyl only affair with brand new A side 'Last Time' taking a well deserved spotlight, a fresh and emotive slice of house that tinkers with the sounds of 2-step and golden era US house music. Gerry's impeccable production hasn't gone unnoticed either, already getting plays from Ben UFO, Untold, Gilles Peterson, MJ Cole and more, and if that's not enough, its backed with 'Patterns' the title track from the aforementioned EP on the flip side. Stream previews of this great record below, and as a bonus here's the latest Dark Arx Podcast which you can stream or download below.
