Review: Hot on the heels of last year's 1987 long player comes this fine follow-up from Benedikt Frey. Fastlane starts off at a slow pace with the introspective breaks of "Habits" before Frey accelerates headlong into the title track's intense, fuzzy techno. "Gasoline" tells a similar story, albeit with break beats underpinning dense sound textures. However, it's not all intense dance floor tracks. Fastlane also contains enough sonic curve balls to keep even the most impatient listener engaged. These include the low-slung, atmospheric breaks of "Silverblade", tribal techno on "Crank" and the jittery electro beats and wired acid tones of "Trick Shot".
