Title: Stellarator/Hyperway

Artist: Anthony Rother X Sync 24

Label: Cultivated Electronics

Cat Number: CE036

Genre: Electro

 

A1: Stellarator – Anthony Rother

A2: Stellarator  (Plasma Mix) – Anthony Rother

B2: Hyper Loop 1 – Sync 24

B3: Hyper Loop 2 – Sync 24

 

This split release is the result of a meeting between label boss Sync 24 and Anthony Rother at the Rex Club in Paris and seems to have been worked on from a distance. Clearly not a collaboration, but a meeting of minds, it’s focus is on the two lead tracks, while the others are, for want of a better expression, deconstructed back up. Both ‘Stellarator’ and ‘Hyperway’ are solid enough: the former a breezy, funky, fluctuating piece of full-bodied electro, the latter is a sharper, more urgent and more abrasive with a good amount of insect menace. Both the ‘Plasma Mix’ and the two loops purge some of their respective source’s highlights, and isolate them for mixing purposes. All in all though, I think this release is a missed opportunity and promised more.
