Hell Is Other People EP - Neil Landstrumm (UTTU)


Title: Hell is Other People EP
Artist: Neil Landstrumm
Label: UTTU
Cat Number: UTTU097
Genre: Techno

1: Hell Is Other People (feat. Si Begg)
2: Aviemore
3: Jackshit

Certain electro motifs get me everyt time, and there’s nothing I like more than an other worldly vocoded voice deadpanning itself across the sonic stratosphere. This happens on the title track with pleasing regularity and, accompanied as it is with an equally deadpanned bass line, it makes for an engaging, and reassuringly extraterrestrial listen. ‘Aviemore’ has its bleep credentials intact, and there’s more than an LFO whiff about it, but its a little bit whimsical. ‘Jackshit’ feels like an elongated version of its predecessor, but with added depth and darkness. A very strong release which has an extra tune on the vinyl version.
