We got a bunch of stuff in this week by Milieu. Been a while! Tidewater Petrol is one of 'em and it's a wee 3" job limited to a paltry 50 copies... Of which we don't have too many. Quite refreshingly this is somewhat of a departure from previous Milieu releases. It's way more upbeat than most (if not all) of his previous work. The opener 'Drysummer' builds up into a fantastic piece of crunchy sounding melodic electronica over a thunderous 4/4 beat.... Kind of reminds me a bit of Plaid at times. 'Neon 9000' is another upbeat number which reminds me a bit of AFX at times.. That's the highlight of the EP for me but the whole thing is some what of a revelation if I'm honest. It's good to hear him do something else. Excellent stuff!!

A brand new Milieu EP, hot on the heels of the Swaying Palms album. Picking up the dancefloor-friendly hints
from Palms, this tight little three-tracker shows Milieu in prime four-to-the-floor mode. Possibly more
danceable than just about anything else in the catalog, with bouncing uptempo grooves, mental change-ups and planetarium-sized pad swells. Psychedelic club music to liven up the typically bittersweet downtempo party here at Milieu Music. Limited to 50 copies on mini-CD-R.

Tracklisting:

1. Drysummer (6:03)
2. Neon 9000 (5:57)
