Brainwave - Steve Allman (EON Records)


Title: Brainwave

Artist: Steve Allman

Label: EON Records

Cat Number: EON003

Genre: Electro

 

A1: Brainwave

A2: Brainwave (Sync 24 Remix)

B1: Possessed

B2: Creator

 

Steve Allman is a resident at long running electro night Scand, and on this release he’s straight down to body popping dreamland as soon as the first bar drops. ‘Brainwave’ is a high velocity Detroit-derived track, which has the right amount of cosmic and sonic dissonance within its grooves to keep on the right side of unpredictability. Sync 24’s stripped down remix doesn’t deviate too far from the original, but plays on space to garner room to maneuver. Possessed’ and ‘Creator’, like the title track, are chock full of devilish detail, but are cleverly manipulated so as not to feel overcrowded. Good work sir!
