IRENICSPC008 - V/A (Irenic)

 

Title: IRENICSPC008

Artist: Various

Label: Irenic

Cat Number: IRENICSPC008

Genre: Dub Techno


01: Voyager 1 – Rinaldo Maka

02: Vibert – Fletcher

03:  Magic River – Christine Benz

04: Taiga – Alessandro Crimi


The latest various artist release on Roger Gerressen’s always essential Irenic imprint brings together four tracks that, cover most dance floor-friendly dub techno bases, offering variety insofar as tempo and mood are concerned. Rinaldo Maka’s ‘Voyager 1’ is, as its name suggests, a cosmic pump into the outer limits. ‘Vibert’ goes beyond the dub to regale the listener with a piece of uplifting, low-slung, but hot weather deep house. The two eponymously geographical tracks that remain are perhaps the moodiest, with ‘Taiga’ all soaring synths and choral ambience, and ‘Magic River’ a solemn, slightly caustic, more tenacious piece. Essential shizzle.
