Andy Ash – Broken Nights EP [BKR002] by hipodrome
February 28, 2012, 5:48 am
Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , ,

Wonderfull languorous slice of laid back slo mo house that fuses together loose limbed percussion, an old school riff and haunting, pitch shifted vocals. The tracks builds in intensity as the arrangement progresses, bringing the piano to the fore and shifting up a gear with hypnotic vocals that give the record a truly balaeric feel, quality stuff.

Lapien – Anvers EP [BLIQ004] by hipodrome
February 28, 2012, 5:02 am
Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , , , ,

‘Anvers’, the French name for Belgian port Antwerp, starts in unassuming manner, synths swimming, bass pondering, a gentle cymbal tapping. It’s the sound of thoughtful admiration, as if Lapien is standing in front of the city’s towering gothic cathedral, motionless in the midst of a now modern metropolis. But then, as loops spring uncomfortably back and an insistent beat thunders into the fray, one realizes that this is no time for admiring architecture; this is a night drive through the city – coarse orange streetlamps, chrome blue reflections, droplet-stained window panes. Remixes by Conforce and Fred P.

Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , , , ,

Trevor Jackson – Metal Dance: Industrial/Post Punk/EBM: Classics & Rarities 80-88 [STRUT091LP] by hipodrome

The latest Strut Records release shines more light on the clanking, far-sighted world of the 1980s’ most revolutionary genres – namely industrial, post-punk and EBM. This time Trevor Jackson is at the helm. His two-disc selection touches on many different strands, from bleak synthesizer jams and crunchy punk-funk to twisted industrial disco, mutant electrofunk and almighty percussive workouts.

Megadon Betamax – Falling EP [VR008] by hipodrome

Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , , , , ,

Falling is the second full release on the excellent Voyeurhythm imprint from Megadon Betamax aka Mostyn. The mid tempo poise of “Falling” is perfectly embellished by intricate rib tickling synth work, perma floating vocals and is further charmed by a dash of surf guitar! Former Tresor resident and current Auckland dweller DJ Raw Sugar turns the track inside out for a nicely dubbed beatdown rendition on the flip whilst the previously released Betamax jam “He Can’t Love You” gets a reworking from the rising talent LeSale.

Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , ,

Rayko’s debut on American Standard label is a typically infectious reworking of a disco oddity, replete with the sort of chugging bassline and snapping percussion that teases people onto the dancefloor.

Three Legged Race – Wrong Element EP [AD003] by hipodrome
February 26, 2012, 5:42 am
Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , ,

Hallucinating, mechanical, and dark; spatial techno from THREE LEGGED RACE. The WRONG ELEMENT EP solidifies Robert Beatty’s recent mind bending live performances into proper physical form: a 12″ extended play record. The high voltage lines of slum MOOG and brick 808 define the all saturating sound seeping from the black lead earth of Lexington, Kentucky. The mastery of tension and release found throughout Beatty’s work with Hair Police and Burning Star Core is here crystalized into a rich and daunting psycho-physical techno fit for the club and the basement.

Giorgio Gigli / Obtane – A Sad Wandering Dreamer Trapped In Contemporary Memory Architectures [ZLF001] by hipodrome
February 26, 2012, 5:09 am
Filed under: 001.Features | Tags: , , , ,

Zooloft Records is approaching to the era of future tech-noir and this release is the result of an internal process of thoughts and ideas behind them. It tells the story of a sad wanderer who is trying to find the path to personal truth. Outside, a desolate scenario of modern architectures of cold glass, standing to the edge of horizon. A wonderland of mirrors and empty landscapes: the triumph of solitude.
