Review: Sum Over Histories presents "Path Integral VII," a new label compilation offering an exquisite blend of deep, big room, melodic and (sometimes) vocal hits. From the frenetic beauty of OMRI's "XXVI," with its mesmerising stuttered arpeggios, to the captivating breakbeats of Paperplane's "Fold50," the tracks on this compilation traverse progressive landscapes. Jozef K's "Due Light To The Misled" exudes a refined, less chaotic house-inspired essence, while Enamour's "Split Brain" immerses listeners in a tech-infused dub production. With an astute curation that embodies the label's commitment to musical diversity, Path Integral VII adds to the oeuvre of Sum Over Histories' classy curation.
Review: Frankie & Sandrino's imprint Sum Over Histories now present German producer Lazaros with he Vistors EP where the Cologne based producer serves up three epically dark journey tracks made for drifting on the dancefloor. Starting off with the ethereal bump and grind of slow burner "Under The Sun" which impressively utilises a trance style gated arpeggio, its then on to the gloomy horror movie themed "Odysee" which sounds like John Carpenter gone nu-disco. There's then two versions of the title track, but for our money it's all about the life affirming progressive house on offer with the second version: which will have you tunnelling out of control with its pure dancefloor drama.
Review: Cologne's Lazaros has been slowly making a name for himself, appearing previously on Stamp The Wax and Nautilus Rising; who presents again his newest EP here. Starting out with the moody atmospheric journey track "GE" which features some massive builds and chord progressions maximised for great dancefloor impact, the journeys continue with the dark slow burner "Ori" and the druggy minimal/tech house of "Uranos" which features some roaring synth leads. Finally "HZ" hammers the message home on this emotive and esoteric dancefloor odyssey which will appeal to fans of the Crosstown Rebels or Moodmusic sound that is in vogue at present.
Review: You know it's a god week when Germany's mythical Kompakt label signs a new artist to their roster, not to mention one that has never released anything before. With their ability to suss out new talent on the digital circuits, the imprint have given us countless new artists which have made a name for themselves over the years, and Lazaros looks set to follow in those footsteps. "Trigono" kicks the two-tracker off with a steady kick and subtle swarms of pseudo acid before transforming into a deep, molecular techno cut for the night time. "Tetragono" is even lower down in the depths of space, bringing forth a minimal sonic drift for the tool users. Simple yet effective.
