SECURITY DJ レコード& CD

Review: Since launching in 2016, Italian label Raw Culture has done much to preserve the militant, industrial-fired energy and intensity that's long been associated with techno in the city it calls home, Rome. While this EP from Sandro Maruani's Security DJ project isn't all-out Lory D style insanity, it's certainly harder-edged than most. He begins by mixing and matching elements of industrial funk, EBM and electro on the growling bounce of "Ramp Age" (which comes complete with vocals by Asymetrical), before fizzing his way through wayward acid-electro on "Domestic XS" - a track subsequently given a darker shade by remixer Cardopusher. "Ghettonite" is a stomping slab of lo-fi industrial techno, while "Nessun Ricordo (Dub)" is a breathlessly raw, bleak and distorted experimental workout. Lory D would definitely approve.
