Appleseed Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Title: EP - Faxi Nadu - Intelligence (DARKEP003) 2006 Format: FLAC Label: Digital Audio Recording Kompany Cat. #: DARKEP003 Cover Art: Front Back Webshop: http://www.d-a-r-k.net http://www.dark-records.com All tracks produced, mixed and mastered by Yaron Eshkar Booking, music and info: http://www.faxinadu.net Art by Hadar Lubaton: http://www.hadargfx.net Tracklist ---------- 1. Faxi Nadu - You Know Alex (7:04) 2. Faxi Nadu - Find The Guy (7:27) 3. Faxi Nadu - Fight The Future(edit)(5:32) 4. Faxi Nadu - Bolt From The Blue(edit)(8:57) Review: -------- 1. Faxi Nadu - You Know Alex It starts with someone abruptly tunning the radio ending up with a floating melody to begin with a deep bassline and some robotic vocoded voice sample making you sense some kinda artificial intelligence, some space communication 0:57 on adds more layers pouring in eerie sounds, bring in the nuke explosion which limits itself and a short screaming vocal begging for mercy, the pace is slow but the atmosphere is perfectly scary, the screams and short acid leads continue at their own timed pace, and then this addition of TS303 leads at 2:42 makes me smile but further on it goes spreading which did not make much sense to me. More screaming vocals keep comin and continue the dark journey that reminds me of Ghreg on EArth's dark atmosphere's accompanied by obscure layers of wicked samples. 2. Faxi Nadu - Find The Guy Starts with a female weeping with a full-onish bassline , and further on another vocal sample. The pace of the track defines what is to come with mysterious leads pouring from time to time, faxi pumps in old TS303 back again, and some acid sqelches too. The energy level is just above ground and the production in comparison to the previous songs remains a bit more minimal, as the effects tune in all the right spots with an emphasis on the groove. Faxi uses the acid textures smartly and with timely precision. This one has a classic goa touch to it warping you in frenzy. 3. Faxi Nadu - Fight The Future(edit) Fight The Future begins with a radio'ish voice samples to explode into a Phat rolling bassline accompanied with more voice sample"Where is he ... over here" and a killer kick that i like to dig, this ones had a sinister night time atmosphere with strange and trance inducing melodies that really makes u stare at the darkness , the track proceeds further with floating voice samples just everywhere used smartly IMO, 3:31 onwards the track picks up the pace galloping into the night with a distorted riff that seems to hover over the pulsations to be followed by even more snarling sounds and more cries of pain, hope the future would be unpainful.... 4. Faxi Nadu - Bolt From The Blue(edit) The last one starts with some interesting percussion full-on bass-line and less voice samples, you stomp all the way into dark and end up with the usual Faxi vocal formula and mad driving synth sounds layered intelligently, i personally did not like the melody at the end of this one but I would sum up this review sayin that FAxi Nadu is an intelligent producer well versed with his production skills both in theory and practise.
