Test Tube Babies (Antoni Maiovvi remix) - (9:00) 120 BPM
Review: Haex Hrll is a new project from long-serving Dutch techno and electro producer Jeroen Warmenhoven, a man best known as DJ Overdose. In some ways the new pseudonym was needed, because North of Warren is musically rather different from much of his club-centric material. It starts with a trio of tracks dripping in the kind of vintage synthesizer sounds and cinematic melodies found on John Carpenter's best work, with only the producer's penchant for dusty drum machine hits breaking the spell. Then, the label co-founder Anton Maovvi pays tribite to Vangelis's Blade Runner soundtrack on a superb remix of forthcoming album track "Test Tube Babies", before fellow Giallo Disco boss Vercetti Technicolour turns "North of Warren" into a mid'-90s trance throbber.
Review: Vercetti Technicolor and Antoni Maiovvi's Giallo Disco continues to strut its stuff and impress with fervor, this time enabled by the sounds of newcomer Mr.Eff. The enigmatic producer debuts with a sublime album of neo-romanticism and eerie elector glory, sounding a lot like the sort of material that would land magnificently on the back of a film soundtrack. Much like the recent sounds of Stranger Things' score, this is mood music for the mood people, coming through with vast landscapes of synths and warm drum machine beats, blurring the lines between atmospherics and dance music. What an excellent debut - yes, Mr Eff!
Review: A pioneer since the early '90s and, not to mention, an originator of the "wonky" side of hard-hitting techno, Scotland's Neil Landstrumm is an artist to be treated with the upmost respect by the wider dance scene. Aside from an endless variety of releases for labels like Peacefrog back in their golden era, Landstrumm has never compromised on a single aspect of his music, and he's always stuck to offering his own version of techno - there ain't a hint of bandwagons here! This latest release sees him rock up on the fabulously off-kilter Giallo Disco imprint, active in the game since 2012 and masters of their own universe. While these five killers are perhaps slightly less deadly than their 90s counterparts, that inimitable Landstrumm sound is very much there, only subtly masqueraded by a more disco-leaning cosmetic makeover. If you're into raw, effective floor trax then you should look no further. All killer, no filler...
