Review: Frustrated Funk deserves kudos for re-releasing some of Gerard Hanson's early ERP work from 2007. Tracks like "Perfume Persuasion", with its brittle beats and eerie synths, show how far apart this alias is from Hanson's work as Convextion. Of even more importance, it also underlines the fact that when it comes to atmospheric electro, few producers come close to him. "Alsoran", with its sleek rhythm and ghostly pads, shimmers its way through the audio spectrum, while "Lament Subrosa" defines electro's futuristic essence, as crisp drums underpin the atmospheric soundtrack to journey to a lost planet beyond our solar system. It's a sublime, stellar collection.
