‘Mute Mode’ is Kalcagni’s second release on Cosmoba, following up ‘Lost In The System’, which was released at the end of last year and set the tone for this four tracker. Deep electro and acid which works wonders on the dance floor, and equally well in your living room late at night when you’re engaged in cerebral pursuits. The tracks engage their extremes with ease, eking out imaginary worlds through well-defined sound design which deploys classic electro tropes in such a way as to render them fresh and slightly unexpected. ‘Mute Mode’ and ‘Up Here (In The Head)’ utilise an acidic layer to get their point across, while ‘System Addict’ and ‘Worn Out Version’ feel lighter and more jet propelled as a consequence of not doing so. Whatever the slant, the tracks here are versatile and well-balanced enough to insert into a set at almost any juncture, eloquently setting the mood when all else fails. ‘‘Up Here (In The Head)’ stands out for me with its new beat throb and dramatic flanging, which is nice.
