Eleven Follow #RaffaeleAttanasio here: Follow #MutualRytm here: Landing as Raffaele Attanasio’s second outing on SHDW’s Mutual Rytm label, following his incredible debut ‘Quasar’ and recent appearance on the third instalment of the label’s Federation Of Rytm compilation, the EP is a showcase of an exciting artist with a new school take on techno while bringing real respect for the roots of his sound. He has played live on stage with the legendary Jeff Mills, and is involved in several other musical projects in different genres but reserves his finest techno for his own name. Madrigal’ opens the EP, with Attanasio crafting an apocalyptic anthem composed of one sound, the Nord Wave 2 synthesizer and a pumping groove. It is pure dance floor heat with unrelenting drums that lock in the crowd. The brilliant ‘Heat’ then brings tribalism, with a powerful rolling groove peppered with chord stabs that bring it to life. ‘Aogiri Tree’ features rousing drums that emerge from the undergrowth and accompany the macabre lead synth. Its mischievous notes hint at hidden danger and keep you on your toes. Keeping the energy high, ‘Stratford Fog’ delivers a battle between drums and the constantly pulsing bass. Edgy chord stabs and raw percussion make for a breathtaking groove that never lets up and keeps you utterly engaged. The title track is a laser-focused production that harks back to the golden age of Neapolitan techno with a perfectly designed groove, before digital bonus ‘Eleven’ brings hints of stylish Detroit techno with its lush chords and arpeggiated saw bassline, creating a continuous flow right to the last beat. ___ DISCLAIMER: All tracks are uploaded in a low quality for promotional purposes only and with buy links to respect label and artists.
