Review: Not to be confused with the Irish hardware mangler The Cyclist, Toronto producer Mark Penner continues his mutant disco adventures as Cyclist with a fine release for the emergent Mani/Pedi label. Lead track "Incoming Instructions" is the most derange five minutes of disco we have heard this week with echoes of vintage In Flagranti throughout and a killer shift in tone midway through. Following this, "Meta" feels like Penner is playing it a bit straighter down the path to cosmic jam enlightenment and the B side houses remixes from Brioski and Alexander Robotnick. Of the two it's Brioski that really impresses with a narcotic rework that feels like it's been chewing on sugar cane for days.
