Distrito 91 Spain レコード& CD

Review: French producer KafkaCtrl is something of an enigma artist but his music does plenty of taking for him. He now steps up to Madrid's leading electro label Distrito 91 with his The Lost Intruder EP featuring five analogue bangers. They are all packed with a cinematic narrative that keeps the mind busy while the visceral low ends bump and grind. That's the case with instrumental opener 'Hidden Light', then 'Cell Echoes' has a more haunting vibe thanks to the eerie synths, and 'Tokyo Combat' and 'Morphing Blood' then blend musical and emotional depth with a real physicality that always defines the very best electro.

Review: Lithuanian producer Subliminal debuts on Distrito 91 with a dynamic six-track EP crafted purely for the dancefloor. It blends electro and techno across a series of raw analogue soundscapes that were all recorded at a studio in Kaunas. Each track boasts driving four-on-the-floor drums and resonant basslines as well as acid tones and lush pads all created using hardware instruments. From the jostling drums and synth tension of 'Inside The Wave' to the frosty jack of 'Submarine Acid' via the glistening celestial melodies and jagged synth lines of 'Lost Together' this is one potent EP.
