The Scandanavians of late, led by such industrious individuals as Freddie Cruger, Mad Matts and the balearic sounds of Lindstrom, have pushed themselves to the forefront of the leftfield dance music community. For any Dj or avid record collector, checking the new releases from G.A.M.M, Raw Fusion or Feedelity on almost daily basis has become a matter of course.

The latest talents to emerge, coming straight out of Helsinki, have just provided even more to get excited about. Teaming up with the stateside talents of Synoptic Pressure, The Recluse Crew have unleased a mind engaging full length LP with such a natural flow it feels as though each track was made to set up the next. With a striking lack of pretention or posing, the talents of the crew are fully exposed, raw sounding and at times minimal, the Recluse Crew should create quite a dent in an already vibrant scene with this one.
