Well known and firmly established as an outlet for high quality house and techno, Ray Okpara’s AMA Recordings proudly presents the 27th release on the label, featuring Serbian talent Marko Nasti? and rising UK star Niko Maxen.

Belgrade producer Nasti? is no stranger to procuring heady rhythms and infectious grooves, having previously appeared on Nervous Records, Baile Musik and Carillon Records. ‘Solar Apex’ sees him do exactly that, with a title track that’s a proper (proper) deep house roller. Things are kept moving with ‘Apendix Footwork’, where a bubbling bassline meets electronic mutations that give the track a life of its own. To round things off in style, the undulating bass and rich warmth of ‘Watery Feeling’ provides a fitting end to what is a very accomplished EP indeed.

Leeds is a place that’s quickly getting a reputation for quality house and techno music, thanks to clubs like Wire, Mint Warehouse and Canal Mills. It’s where ‘Watery Feeling’ remixer Niko Maxen hails from, and when you hear the superb effort he’s turned in everything starts to make sense. Understated and brooding, Maxen’s dark version of ‘Watery Feeling’ is nearly eight minutes of dancefloor bliss.

AMA Recordings, founded in 2010 by Ray Okpara, has been responsible for introducing a whole host of deep and dubby sounds to the world from the likes of Nick Curly, Federico Molinari and Sascha Dive. As the label goes from strength to strength, expect more dancefloor ammunition just like Marko Nasti?’s ‘Solar Apex’ in 2016 and beyond.
