Review: Hot on the heels of the release of "Dust", Mesh delivers some high-quality remixes of Nicolas Bougaieff's work. First up is Guy Andrews. Best known for his work on Houndstooth and Hemlock, he turns the title track into a wonderfully cinematic, sound scape. Label owner Max Cooper's take on "Dust" offers a radically perspective: while it also resounds to melodic ebbs and flows, undulating electronic pulses power it onto the dance floor. Deapmash contributes the last remix; the French producer's take on "Bremsstrahlung" is radically different to the preceding interpretations, with a raw, stepping rhythm underpinning chilling chords and droning tones mapping out a menacing conclusion.

Review: Following up great releases on Traum, Trapez and Novamute, French-Canadian Nicolas Bougaieff presents a three track EP on Max Cooper's Mesh imprint. Dust borrows its name from a book by Greg Egan, a sci-fi story where humans gain immortality by duplicating their consciousness via software. From the full throttle energy of the title track, where its austere elements are contrasted by sublime use of melody - altogether pulling you into the vortex. The intricate and multi-layered electro journey "Bremsstrahlung" showcases the dynamic producer's talent for impeccable sound design on this dystopian electro number, and "Dust Theory" is a nefarious dark ambient journey that isn't shy of using some serious overdrive and distortion.
