City Of 3000 France Vinyl & CDs

Review: Since debuting the project in 2019, FSK24 has become an outlet for the more psychedelic and hallucinatory aural explorations of French producer Chris Carrier, an artist who has been serving up deep house and tech-house treats (under a variety of aliases) since the late 1990s. That love of trippy, mid-90s style techno psychedelia comes to the fore once more on the first FSK24 EP of 2023. Check first opener 'South Aitken', an intergalactic electro explosion blessed with deep, foreboding bass and smothered in echoing electronics, undulating acid motifs and ambient techno sonics, before admiring the stabbing acid bass, LSD-trip electronics, and rolling acid house beats of 'Alphaville'. Arguably best of all, though, is the locked-in house shuffle of 'Ghostpoint', where echoing acid riffs and Brown Album era Orbital style motifs catch the ear.
