Kalcagni - Lost In The System (Cosmoba)



Title: Lost In The System 

Artist: Kalcagni 

Label: Cosmoba

Cat Number: CMB001

Genre: Electro


A1. Lost In The System
A2. Multislacking
B1. Culture Vulture
B2. After The Fact


Electro doesn’t sleep; and this funk fuelled four tracker comes correct with a quartet that, while pretty much no frills, is more than merely functional. ‘Lost In The System
’ is characterised by a meandering bass, agitated percussion and a tendency to synth wash. ‘Multislacking’ is more introspective, easing off the pace and blending beats into a flangetastic veneer. ‘Culture Vulture’ feels relatively minimal and spacious, in spite of the fact that it utilises all of the elements already present in the first two tracks as well as a 303, something which is amplified on ‘After The Fact’, which deploys more urgency and low end. A very solid release, in which two more louche tracks are bookended by beats from the cerebral dark side.
