Stuart Li, better known as Basic Soul Unit, set up the Lab.our Music label last year as a low-key outlet for vinyl only transmissions from himself and others. Having introduced local Toronto talent Maxwell Church last time round, Li is back behind the buttons for Lab.our 003 which seems to retain the techno orientated slant of much of Basic Soul Unit’s work in 2013. Lead track “Head Long” grips control of the A Side, rolling out one long groove of heads down techno, with the sort of windy textures and rolling toms that tend to get Ben UFO all excited. Face down, “Nowhere To Be Found” opts for a more broken feel, with the ghost of hardcore buried deep in it’s DNA and the kind of stunted drums that can cause ankle fractures, and “Spiralling Down” will appeal to STL fans.
