             Rich Curtis has been at the vanguard of the underground dance 
             scene for over 15 years as DJ, promoter and producer. Now, he 
             makes his debut on Balance Music with the 'Baby Raver' EP 
             featuring a pair of standout remixes coming from a fellow 
             Australian and an Argentinean heavyweight. 

             With a portfolio of production credits to rival the most 
             seasoned performer, Rich Curtis' work for the likes of Cid Inc. 
             's Replug, John 00 Fleming's JOOF Recordings and Hernan 
             Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music is testament to the Australian's 
             standing within the dance fraternity. Now hitting the heights on 
             Balance Music, 'Baby Raver' is a chunky rhythmic powerhouse that 
             revolves around a tight percussive groove and hefty bass groove, 
             in two variations. A relentless, timeless intensity flows 
             through the 'All Tears Edition' with its liberal sprinkling of 
             stereo panned effects, pausing for breath at an atmospheric, 
             effects laden breakdown. Subtle melodic flourishes flow through 
             the 'Dry Face Edition' as gently pulsating pads and eerily 
             evolving soundscapes provide additional layers of intrigue and 
             dancefloor depth. The sublimely captivating 'Two Sides to Every 
             Cockroach' is a beatless gem of emotive phrasing and 
             counterpoint melody that flows easily across its 4 minute 
             duration. Making its mark in the latter stages with a bassline 
             growl, the track shows Rich Curtis as a potent sound designer 
             with a flair for the dramatic film score. 

             Jamie Stevens needs little introduction to the Balance Music 
             faithful, along with Selador, Lost & Found and Bedrock have all 
             played host to Jamie's music while 2022 has already seen a pair 
             of outstanding EPs on Balance through 'Exatique' and 'Becoming', 
             with fellow countryman, GMJ. Now returning, the Jamie Stevens 
             remix of 'Baby Raver' is a deep and driving affair that revels 
             in a rolling percussive groove and chest thumping kick that 
             provides the perfect anchor for its flowing melodic lines. 
             Taking elements from the original and evolving them into unique 
             new passages that make their presence felt at the mid point 
             breakdown, Stevens' remix reaches a rousing crescendo in the 
             final movement as rhythm and melody combine to devastating 
             effect. 

             The Mike Griego remix is a powerhouse of deep kick and subtly 
             pitched percussive motif. Adding the flowing pads and melodic 
             phrasing from the original creates an almost tribal backdrop 
             that coruscates across the stereo spectrum with ease. Generating 
             a plethora of sonic textures and fizzing effects, delayed 
             infused vocal cuts and a rippling arpeggio open up at the 
             breakdown before dropping back into the powerful rhythmic 
             collage in a true 'hands in the air' moment where all elements 
             combine to devastating effect.
