Tracks:
A: Dark Side of My Moon The A side starts up with a melancholic epos, with punchy kicks, baselines and lush melodies Stavöstrand uses his whole palette to make this into a late night floor filler, growing and growing.
B1: A Little Light Deep mean bases roaming with small funky beats and melodies. A bit of the trademark for this ep. Continuing the melancholic theme.
B2: Im Down Straight to the funk, rubbery baselines pushes the track forward with a kind of acidy sound, with freaky small details popping up where you dont expect them. A must for the daring djs.

De:Bug, Bleed 5/5
"Mitek-Macher hat ein neues Label und das erinnert mich vom ersten
Release an auf skurrile Weise an Jaceks Label. Deepe verspielte
Grooves mit viel Geschichte im Nacken, viel Raum sich selber all das
ausprobieren zu lassen, was auf den anderen Labeln zuoft aufgrund
eines engen Stylkorsetts vernachlässigt wird. Sich einfach mal gehen
lassen, aber in eine Richtung die unbestimmt ist, unbestimmbar
bleiben will und damit so phantastische, konsequente und verspielte
Epen wie "Dark Side Of My Moon" ermöglicht. "A Little Light" auf der
Rückseite ist soetwas wie die Andeutung eines Ravetracks, der sich
selber nie erfüllen kann und für "I'm Down" geht es tief in den Funk
der Synthgräben. Feine und sehr abenteuerliche EP."
