Decius - Roberto's Tumescence (The Leaf Label)

 


Title: Roberto's Tumescence 

Artist: Decius  

Label: The Leaf Label

Cat Number: 

Genre: Sleaze Rock


1:  Roberto's Tumescence (Extended Mix)

2:  Roberto's Tumescence (Radio Mix)


Apparently ‘Roberto’s Tumescence’ “pays homage to the fertile Belgian discos of the 70s and 80s - built on a sample of Transvolta's 'Disco Computer'. So that’s what I’m reminded of then. A riff so pervasive within my psyche that it just goes to show how the subconscious reigns supreme. It’s all about the vocoder in this one, the riff being one of Decius’ more frictional. Definitely something to pull a muscle throwing shapes to, and it’s eminently catchy but the extended version could be longer. Having said all that, it’s still a sordidly decadent way to start the week.
