Review:
The Scandinavian duo's recent release gets a jazzed out reshape by Olaf Stuut and a spacey but insistent minimal interpretation from Chaijen, but it's all about the reworks of "Drop the Mask of Self-Protection". Dominik Eulberg's take centres on a resonating bass and swirling trance melodies that are undeniably Vath-esque, while Microtrauma's version is populated by chiming bells and rolling, jangly rhythms. Umit Han and Rodskeez push "Mask" into a darker direction, with pulsing basslines and raw beats to the fore, but the undisputed highlight is the Spada remix, where the kind of detuned melodies that made Roman Flugel's Fatty Folders album such a delight dominate.
