Review: Proper techno here for proper techno heads as Leyla offers up a various artists EP of the highest order. The percussive clatter and clanging drums of Remco Beekwilder's 'Industrofunk' are designed for main room destruction. Grindvik & OnScreenActor go for a caustic world of rusty synth textures and clattering drums on 'Perfectly Crushed!' and CASKO's 'Revenge Spells' bangs the box with manic vocal loops and edgy sirens building paranoid techno tension. Domenico Crisci's 'Driving On The SS7' is the mind-melting synth laden workout to finish this EP in style.
Review: A powerful and raw techno EP from Italian producer Domenico Crisci, who delivers four tracks of uncompromising hard groove via Hungarian label BRVTAL. The EP opens with the title track 'Born Under Another Sun' which imposes an austere cyclicality upon you that is aimed squarely at the peak time dancefloor. 'Sons Of The Sea' continues the same vibe on yet another steely DJ tool conducive to layering or long mixes. The B-side starts with 'Double Trip', which is another minimal and stripped-down track with visceral elements, while 'New Skin' is one more homage to the classic Birmingham sound reminiscent of Surgeon or Regis.
Review: After a fine collaborative outing on Semantica last year, Napoli tastemakers Retina.it and Domenico Crisci combine their skills once more for the tenth release from Summa Cum Laude. 'A Man With A Suitcase' opens up with a mix of textural synth details and long-form linear techno drums that all work you into a lather. 'Dead End Street' ups the pace and gets more manic with a hurried rhythm and urgent synth flashes peeling off the drums and 'Cross Road' then gets more weird with warped synth circles bringing tension and menace. 'Nocturnal Noise' closes out with reverberating synth leads and wispy curlicues bringing some rave mentality to the rooted beats.
