Review: Following the Mad Mate compilation series, Noemi Black drops a solo EP. Anchored in the contemporary techno sound, Hit The Club also makes nods to the past. This combination of factors is audible on "Hit It", where a rolling rhythm is fused with rave riffs that recall hardcore classics like T99's "Anasthasia". Both "Fire In Your Body" and "Long Trip" also make references to 90s dance music. This time however, it's the trance sound, as epic melodies unfold over siren riffs and pounding drums. Label owner SveTec also weighs in with a remix of "Hit It", adding snare rolls and fat kicks that teeter on the brink of distortion.
Review: SveTec aka Adam Szvetek returns to his Mad Made label for this uncompromising EP. The title track is led by stomping kicks and features intense, trance-liked analogue riffs that draw on the hard techno sound of producers like Thomas Heckmann. Meanwhile, "Set Up" sees Szvetek opt for a more direct route, with a rolling groove and pounding bass drums underpinning searing, building acid lines and deft vocal samples. "Surprise Attack" sees this talented artist change direction once again; while not as fast as "Set Up", its looped groove and succession of filtered drops and builds is sure to prove effective wherever it's dropped.
