  • This limited-edition, vinyl-only release is the third outing on The Double R, the new label from the founder of STABLO and Matt "Radio Slave" Edwards. The imprint is named after the diner in Twin Peaks and its first two EPs were named after the diner's staff. This one references its signature dessert, and finds French producer Kennedy Smith turning in "Panadrama" on the A-Side. It rests on a rubbery, almost Bobby Orlando-ish electro bassline and pumping percussion, assertive ingredients that are spacily offset by willowy pads. It's a pleasingly linear, lengthy number that should be a useful mid-set tool for a wide array of DJs. A producer known only as 808 Fake contributes "Beetlejuice." A more rugged proposition than its predecessor, it chugs away on a bed of hats and a hard-edged bassline, under which gentle background chimes and intermittent dialogue samples from Twelve Monkeys add further ambience to an atmospheric package that suggests The Double R will be a label to watch in 2014.
