Curtis Electronix Holland Vinyl & CDs

Review: It's no wonder Dopplereffekt named their latest EP 'Inifinite Tetraspace'. For starters, a tetrahedron is a 3D triangular pyramid of equal lengths per side. A sine wave, meanwhile, is in auditory form considered the purest, most basic sound - it is also the graph produced by plotting all the ratio points between two sides of a triangle. The logical conclusion is this: infinite tetraspace might be considered the ultimate form of repetitive sound, carrying on forever, triangulating constantly in all directions, never ceasing. For all its vivid imaginings, Dopplereffekt's dualistic, stereo-effected sound carries on in full force on their latest EP for Curtis Electronix, tetra-scribing four icy, unsettling entities that may only be encountered in this special extra-conscious zone.

Review: When a label names themselves after an iconic synthesizer chip, you know they mean business. Following releases from the likes of DJ Overdose and Detroit's Filthiest, Curtis Electronix welcome the mighty Galaxian to throw down some truly dystopian machine malfunctions on Destroy Your Future. If you're craving some fresh ideas in the electro scene, look no further as the masked wonder takes the sound right out to the edge without losing that electro essence. 'Destroy Your Future Total Utter Control' is a twitchy cut that seems to dissemble and reform right before your ears. 'Cognitive Warfare' has a sharper focus somewhere in the DJ Stingray spectrum, but this is still weird over functional. Here is the sound of an artist truly ignoring any notion of 'scene' and pressing on with their own twisted vision, and it's frankly mind-blowing.
