	Relation: 'Fear Of Night' - Loughborough Echo - Sound Advice - Album Review "...the duo of Andrew Leary and Oliver Keech are more than the sum of their parts, creating intelligent, thought provoking '80s style polished pop gems. In fact, forget all your cheesy Lady Gagas and Little Bootsies, when it comes to reviving '80s electro pop, Relation are the daddy."

the Diogenes Club: 'Do You Know How To Feel It?'

UT104
Released: 21st September 2009

Following a string of wonderfully idiosyncratic and freshly skewed instrumental EPs and remixes, the Diogenes Club have now been bolstered by the addition of song-writing vocalist Paul Giles. The combination of the Club’s quirky take on ‘80s funk and synth-laden melodies and Paul’s sweetly melancholic vocals make a resounding match. The startling effect has not gone unnoticed; and Pete Tong has already made ‘Do You Know How To Feel It?’ one of his ‘Calm before the storm’ tracks on his Radio 1 show. This EP pioneers the way ahead for the reinvigorated Diogenes Club, trailblazing along a path of emotionally-charged melody-driven electronic song.

UT103
Released: 28th September 2009

Sometimes a track sneaks up on you while you’re listening out for the next big thing, sticks two fingers up at that new fad, and charms you with good old-fashioned musical brilliance. It shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise, however, as Muscovite Kimouts has previous form with the sublime ‘Down To Earth’ on Buzzin’ Fly.
