Review:

 

Play It begins with philosophic french samples, and the music itself starts :

big bassline, small noises on both sides, drums...and big surprise, a woman

fills your ears with very spiritual voices and is joined by small twisted

sounds ! And now it's like some powerful psy harmonies are going in every

direction, one after the other. Here, everyone dances ! There are cool breaks,

and enough variations. Impossible to be bored ! At 4:00 you can breathe a

little but the kick is still crushing the place...strong strings, silly french

sample, pause, and...the harmonics restart with the little tweaked sounds and

the voices all at the same time, blowing everyine away ! This is true full-on

!

Hum...if you refrain from playing it again and again, you can put the vinyl

updide down and listen to Black Energy : This one is more typically

Bio-Tonic-like. The begining kicks hard, and is filled with samples. 1:28

twisted break and the music restarts with more hi-hats...another break with a

french sample ("certainties make men blind and insane"), and suddenly there

are some GMS-like notes, then faster, even more GMS-like :), but on the

Bio-Tonic rhythmic, it's something totally new ! Once again the track is

varied enough as there is a change in the samples or a break every 30"...after

some tweaked ping-pong samples the distorsions come back alltogether to

acheive you !

No doubt this is one of the best EPs this year, maybe the best. I don't give

9/10 often, this one has it.

play it is phenomenal, but dark energy isn't quite as good... 9/10 but worth

getting for play it anyway.

Can't wait to hear more from this amazingly trio. Having taking the sharp style

from Minimal/Progressive and added the spirits from the Goa-style, gives these

two tracks an unique touch. Both tracks are very mix-able and can either be

mixed into some nice old skool Goa, some Psychedelic Full-On, or even some

modern Progressive.

Hope to see an album featuring many tracks with this new fresh sound.

Grade: 9/10
