Review: Loco Dice's label has always had an adventurous A&R policy - and this time is no different. Desolat has tapped an upcoming producer, Alvaro AM from Madrid, for a minimal house release with a twist. "Dominator Bell" features hip-hop scratches, vocal samples and the well-known rave stab from Dominator. On "Cook it Up", the Spanish artist does exactly what the brash vocal in the track claims - "I'm gonna cook it up" - with disco stabs, rolling snares and a cacophony of strange vocals in the background. "So Close" sees more unusual influences brought into minimal house, with spacey filters and snare rolls coming together over a gristly bass, while "Rhythm Maker" resounds to rolling drums, hiccuping vocals and squelchy bass tones.
