Belfast meets Chicago in the latest offering from Extended Play. Following on from JC Williams 'In Your Arms' release they bring you four solid club workouts that combine to make the Allied Forces EP. A heavyweight 40th release featuring two originals from Belfast crew members Chris Hanna and Martin De Brig and for extra punch they have invited deadly analogue warrior Amir Alexander to add his deft touch to both originals. Chris Hanna's Moonshine will no doubt be added to most DJ's arsenal over the coming months, it's tense electronic riff will cut through any dance floor like a knife and leave no one unscathed and with Amir's deadly beat re fix to back it up you are guaranteed to hear Moonshine in a club any time soon. Martin De Brig is another Belfast artist that has joined the ranks of Extended Play, his love of hardware and all things house and techno grabbed the attention of label heads JMX and Timmy 'T-Bone' Stewart so much that they swore him straight in after hearing his initial offerings. De Brig's first output on the label is a proper acid house jam, percolating claps, a 303 line, spacious arrangement and a stellar vocal all working together to create a standout vocal gem. Amir pitches the vocal deeper and takes a detour down a slightly darker avenue than the original. Thankfully, deeper and darker by no means equals boring here, as a rolling bass line and his trademark killer percussive patterns really keep things moving, demonstrating why Extended Play were so keen to join forces with him in the first place.
