All this week we’ll be releasing exclusive goodness from our partners at Ghostly International, who have a bevy of hot records coming out this fall. Check back every day for more tunes, and if you like what you hear, make sure to go cop some records over at their store.

While some diehards will continue to flog the dead horse that is minimal (what up M_nus crew), most techno and house auteurs have (thankfully) either shifted their music in a more deep and classic direction or added a little melody to the bare boom-clack monotony. 2AM/FM’s “Electric Justice”—culled from the twelve-inch of the same name—falls with the former, a viciously subtle and traditional deep acid cut with Meatwad mumbling (yes, this one) over some diminutive 909 burps and clean hi-hats. And while the Ann Arbor duo seem to deftly straddle the urban Midwest axis that birthed their sound, San Francisco’s Broker/Dealer prescribe to the nu-melodic-minimal variety, soaking their canned beats in swaths of creamy Moogs that are playing—get this!—some pseudo-poppy noise. Both tracks are available for stream below but only the 2AM/FM twelve is available for purchase (grab it here on wax or over at Beatport). Broker/Dealer's Soft Sell EP will drop on October 21st.
