Andrew Philippov At Juno Download

Review: Three beautifully atmospheric and progressive breaks tunes from Russian producer Andrew Philippov, with some help from a trio of remixers on this Digital Sensation release. Affective recasts "Silver Lining" with a slew of cosmic synths and bass with real bite, while Bobalina adds a deep intensity and plenty of high-end fizz to "Space Ocean". Duane Barry's treatment of "Contact" however is the real oceanic treat in the set - with a huge dubby breakdown that you never want to end built in halfway through.

Review: New on Digital Sensation UK, Russian breaks-head Andrew Philippov makes his debut with these three excellent tunes that have already enjoyed support from Kultur & Columbo and Embliss amongst others in the know. On a deep and spacey tip, the title tune makes great use of some neon-coated melodies as well as thick, oceanic pads to give it real density on the breakdowns, while "Silver Lining" goes for a glistening, head-dance vibe with huge sweeps ushering in the perfectly-placed beats. Final tune "Contact" is another beauty - using slowly phased triplet synths to truly suck you in.
