Review: Having toiled away for years, Cygnus is now joining that other Texan electro producer, ERP / Convextion and finally gaining a global audience for his work - with key releases on Barba, CPU and Craigie Knowes. Like Gerard Hanson's ERP project, both the title track on this release and "My Secret Data" resound to dramatic bass patterns and woozily atmospheric synths. However, it would be wrong to assume that Cygnus is following Hanson's path too closely; "Metroid C64" is a stripped back, electro funk affair, while "Votoms" sees him dive deep underwater to deliver a free-flowing workout that is redolent of Drexciya at their most esoteric.
