Set phasers to wobble as Kelbin confronts his alter ego DJ Floor in a battle for dislocated dancefloor supremacy. The latest notch in the PM+ bedpost sees the Italian producer and self-described VCV Rack enthusiast conjure up some devilishly off-kilter synth licks looped up and strapped to a nasty, funked-up techno undercarriage.

'Wiper' is mostly a rugged, swung 4X4 workout splashed with plasticine synth zaps, but the glorious melodic flourish at the mid-section adds a machine soul dimension to the Kelbin sound that offsets the swampy sound FX beautifully. Or is that part of the DJ Floor sound?

The shuffled beats continue apace on 'Stamper', nodding to fidget house and 00s minimal in that canny arrangement of swinging bleeps that hit right at the front of the mix. Expertly constructed for maximum release, this must surely be where DJ Floor comes into his own. Or maybe that's what Kelbin wants you to think?

Bright and brash but chiseled into shape with an expert touch, this is the kind of crooked brain-melting gear that PM+ lives for.
