Review:
After flitting between aliases and styles over the last few years, Aki "Neuroxcyde" Bergen finally releases his debut full length. That it's a cultured, well-crafted, beautifully structured set of finely honed deep house is the first of many surprises. Via the use of cute interludes, live instrumentation, sultry vocals, carefully chosen samples and (in true Italian house style) lots of organs, Bergen offers up a groove-laden journey that will entertain both home listeners and late night dancers. While it works best in context - i.e. listened to from start to finish - there are still stand out dancefloor moments - not least the melodic hip-house deepness of the title track.
