Highgrade is, from a long time, one of my favorite labels! Their work has been immaculate over the last years and every release they launch is literally music to my ears! On their 65th release they brought in, once again, Tom Clark, the Berlin based producer who has been having quite good releases recently, and this one isn’t the exception. The first track is the main one, “Scorpio” a complete turn on to every mnml appreciator. The track starts smooth, with a 4 x 4 beat, sparkling synths and a deep bassline but rapidly develops into an exciting hypnotic addiction! Huge! The 2nd one is “Albino”… if you don’t really know what minimal tech house means, this might be one of it’s best examples. It starts only with the beat and every element goes entering one by one creating an enormous will to dance. His massive attention for detail is well represented in this one. A track perfectly produced, with dancefloor appeal, just like Highgrade has been habituating us. “Sand Flea” ends up the Ep in a very particular way, a very enjoyable track, like the name suggests. If you like to be in the top of the mainstream minimal scene don’t miss this release, I have no doubts that will have an huge success in every deck it plays! Supported by  Magda, Gregor Tresher, Monika Kruse, Jens Bond, Martin Eyerer, Konrad Black, 3 Channels, Benno Blome, Lauhaus, Karotte and many more…
