But on his fifth album, the Hamburg producer dives into his watery sound world with gusto, evoking Larry Heard and Aphex Twin as he draws out undulating arpeggios over crisp, no-nonsense machine grooves. Red-eye flights were made for albums like this.

MIDI & USB cables. Power supplies & cables. Trademark Lawrence nuances are in restrained abundance across each of the three tracks here, such as the skipping, gloopy groove of the title track that playfully hints at concrete jack amidst the crystalline textures. Alongside this "Creator" sees Lawrence in a looser mood, drawing out increasingly hypnosis inducing circles of melody over a locked groove that gradually gets dominated by the shimmering clouds of chords that appear overhead.

It's been quite a while since Lawrence has appeared on the Dial imprint he founded with Messrs Jost and Turner, and while he's not exactly been slacking with appearances on Mule, Pampa, Smallville and Dial offshoot Laid, it's nice to see the man known as Peter M. Kersten back on familiar territory with the Etoile Du Midi EP.

Lawrence - Etoile du Midi If you were mesmerised by the intricate workouts Lawrence served up for Pampa late last year, wait until you hear his latest contribution to the Dial canon. The title track stands as a writhing, undulating homage to the delicacy of microevolution. Celestial synths open it up, but soon things disappear down into a puddly ecosystem of squirming synthetic sounds and scurrying acid twitches. Together with Carsten Jost, Lawrence (real name Peter M. Kersten) runs the Kompakt-affiliated Dial label out of Hamburg, Germany.

Almost four years after his last Dial Record single Miles Lawrence is back with another tribute to the sun. In the meantime he was still busy with a couple of releases for Mule Musiq, Laid, Smallville and Dj Koze's Pampa imprint. His first mix cd Timeless has been recorded lately for Cocoon Recordings. Coming home to his own imprint prooves once more how modern House Music should sound like: deep, moving and always surprising. Lawrence - Etoile Du Midi. Release Date 2012-05-28.
