Very sleek minimal tech-house disc by Swedish producer Johan Skugge. Warm pusling click-y beats and interesting vox on a few tracks keep things interesting. The album is pretty homogenous on the whole though, so my track-by-track might not be very helpful, but all tracks are solid and worth playing. Play: 1, 3, 5
1) Rich full tech-house beat with lots of synths, bass-lines, and a distorted vocal track. 2) Thiner, more mellow track. Lots of dancing syncopated synths moving in and out. Very complex and layered. 3) Really thin, almost broken-beat bordering on the realm of John Arnold. Cool distorted vocals of a guy muttering something about “two feet underground”. 4) Hard, solid 4-4 bass with raunchy synth lines and high echo-y female vox. 5) Tech-house at its best: hypnotic and dark, but funky at the same time. The beat and synths are dark but the whole track is bathed in a warm sea of noise. 6) Bubbly bassline with choppy click and handclap beat. 7) Very similar to last cut. A little colder and more mechanical. 8) Thin punchy beats with a collage of synths. 9+10) More of the same, check them out. 10’s vox are pretty cheesy…
