Phantasy Sound レコード& CD

Review: Terr, the Berlin-based producer, makes electro very noticeably inspired by sci-fi and retrofuturism, with an added sprinkling of cosmic disco to keep things as optimistic (as the former two genres have a habit of being comparatively dystopian) as they need to be. Consciousness As A State Of Matter is a rollicking ride through Terr's manipulably god-playing vision in electro, exploring the concept of consciousness as a physical phenomenon that can be manipulated and transformed. Of course, we don't need this to be spelt out too hard, as Terr's ability to transmute his ideas from potentiated mind-form into real, DAWbound sound is certainly an example of this. Highlights like 'Warp Drive' and 'Final Dance', backed up by dreamy progressions and mysterious vocal contributions, makes this a welcome addition to Erol Alkan's Phantasy Sound label.
