PICKS OF THE WEEK:
  • ATTENDANCES – Galactic Funk Podcast 023                                                                                                             
This week’s set, courtesy of Amsterdam‘s Galactic Funk, comes from Italian DJ and producer based in Ancona, Alessandro Larice, aka Attendances, known for his trippy ‘Retrofuture’ podcast, churning out a phat, dense and dark trance-inducing build-up of groovy, percussive and slo-mo breaky/electro infected with new beat, industrial and acid strains, that, like a powerful and occult Voodoo ritual, will inescapably take possession of your soul and body.
  • Moscow-based EBM/industrial techno producer Fyodor Feoktistov, aka MESHES “Паразиты (Parasites)” off upcoming cassette EP “Euphoria” on Tutamen                                                                                      

EBM-charged technoid blast from Moscow‘s producer boosts a swiftly throbbing bassline driving live wire hypnosis, cut with industrial steam-powered beats and traumatic metal clanks, while zipping auras of magnetic pull and erratic high-pitched synth strains score numbly detached, and dangerous vocal addictions with terse anticipation, amid euphoric dancefloor madness.     

  • London, UK based electronic /psych rock /trip-hop /techno /Greek folk project of Stavros Potamitis & Constantinos Parisinos, aka After Altamont – “Lost Little Girl Feat. Fiona McMartin (Zombies In Miami Remix)” off upcoming “An Animal Orchestra Remixed” EP on London’s Inside Out Records                                 

Mexican duo Zombies In Miami‘s Hypno-dance remix takes us on a swirling and entrancing mind-trip through hypnotic vocal echoes blurring into the icy, elliptical tinny beats and rapid throbbing basslines to form alternate aural dimensions filled with distant twinkling synth tones and droning rave alarm to radiate an undulating psychedelic trance-inducing narcolepsy across far away dancefloor galaxies near you.

  • German dark acid futuristic techno producer CVBox – “Vio line” from upcoming “TeqNoTv” EP on Uncanny Valley

Acid-induced bubbling techno melter from ‘legendary yet mysterious’ artist CVBox with metronomic pounding beats, swirling acidic glitches, and trancey robotic vocal injections,  incites ominous electronic anticipation from obscure futuristic expansions and droning swirls of manic perception, dawning through the cold vast horizons of cybernetic dancefloor bliss.
