Comment: Enrico Bozzato's handful of tracks is a sublime blend of intricate cerebral techno and electro-spiked rhythms and more poppy (techno pop) flickers with exuberant synth hovers and bubbly cadences. It chimes and throbs like a highly functional biotechnical organism accommodated with a large scale of emotions and sensations. At times the artist's approach does extend beyond the technical side given that more atmospheric layers are deemed to be highly atmospheric and spatial. On the other side, however, as previously mentioned it is an intricate rhythmic output where cerebral and technical aspects come smoothly together. The voice parts undoubtedly do bring legendary Kraftwerk in mind. This mesmerising outing is a bit in the discography of Ekar Records.

Terminal Sync - AA2086 (2013)




9.3

/Dub-tech, Deep dub, Club dance/

Comment: This pair of tracks is an outstanding issue on the strength of nebular dub vibes which are varied with more incisive, techno slinging sometimes. However, the first track is more opened due to a shuffle with the echoes of spoken word and more rhythmical elements. The second one involves more elegantly languid progressions where the brims of subdued rhythmic loops are turned deeply inwards, however, which chimes like an instance of ambient dub rather than dub-tech. If to compare Manuel Sabbion`s sound with someone else there can be drawn parallels upon the artists of such labels as Chain Reaction, Deep In Dub, and Mille Plateaux.

Air Protection Office - Techno KryptA (2013)


Ekar 

9.8

/Industrial techno, Experimental techno, Avant-techno, Abstract techno, Alternative dance, Noise, Ambient techno/

Comment: as the title hints at there might be an obscure kind of techno propulsions. More profoundly, there are up 4 excellent rhythmic molochs full of inner impulses and vectors. However, the outer coat of the album is embellished with concrete sounds (indeed, the cicadas are chirping intensely), shamanic ethnic bacchanals, abrasive yet irresistible litter, rarefied yet ecstatic sonic explorations which chimes like an instance of the reconstruction of Afrofuturism. Beyond that there are up drilling synth drones backed up by thick sub bass-relied thudding and more abstract, spherical rhythm impulses which also make difference. In a word, this album pretends to be a highlight of urban shamanism. And it succeeds in. One of the best albums in 2013 so far.
