Full Dose レコード& CD

Review: Lucchesi (real name T. Bernardo II) is a techno producer from Scotland and presents the sophomore release for Glasgow's Full Dose impint. It features two dancehall-laced productions from Ayrshire via Kingston. The 'Burro' EP is uncompromising in approach and heavyweight in sound, reminiscent of The Bug on Rephlex, circa 2003. The A side features the guttural and bass heavy title track with its heavy ragga vocal chant. He chopped the vocal from an old Dancehall LP that he said sounded a lot like Burro Banton. On the flip is the brooding nighttime drama of "Kingstone". Everything was sequenced 'on an old, tired Akai MPC4000' with drums from the Vermona DRM MK1, Voodoo Octave guitar pedal, Roland M-DC 1 (processed through a JomoX T-Resonator II) and couple of other guitar pedals. Waldorf MicroWave XT with a Boss RV-1000 on top. Outro synth was Novation Super Bass Station and a T.C. Electronics Fireworx. Master channel: Art Pro VLA II compressor and an old Akai PEQ. All recorded to tape for the dancehall feel (and hiss, mainly).
