LEROSA Vinyl & CDs

Review: Eudemonia was founded in 2017 with the goal to release versatile electronic music and to create a platform for visual art. Inaugurated by a terrific release by electro veteran Emile Facey aka Plant43, they now have an Irish purveyor of the deep taking up the reins on their second release: the Theme Of Perception EP by Leopoldo Rosa. He has definitely branched out in recent years, with surprising releases for labels diverse as Idle Hands, Slow Motion and locals Lunar Disko - where he dabbled in similar visions of electro as heard on the fierce electro funk of "Glider" - but these expressions are much more evocative and bittersweet. From the vintage electronics reminiscent of Kraftwerk on the dreamscape of "The Minister" to the deeply emotive "Plateau Rosa" - the guy's on point as always.

Review: Richard Brophy's First Cut returns with Wait For One...Then Three Arrive, featuring a bunch of the very best homegrown talents. On the first side, Carlow-based artist Tr One serves up the hypnotic dub chord journey 'Fold', followed over on the flip by Lunar Disko's Lerosa who's in fine form as always on the dark techno soul of 'Crash 2'. Lastly, Giles Armstrong presents his third contribution on the Dublin imprint in the form of a strobed-out slow burner titled 'Deep Is For Dopes!'. Tip!
