Mihai Popoviciu has carved out a reputation for being one of the most innovative producers of electronic music active in Europe today. The man from Romania has established himself both as a highly respected producer releasing on labels such as Highgrade, International Gigolo and Dessous and as a killer DJ performing all over the world. Fiction is his 4th release on Poker Flat Recordings, and delivers four distinct flavours to sink your teeth into. I Should is a slinky groover, with a slippery, evolving bassline, tight, funky percussion and a sultry female vocal. Working just as effectively early in a set as a peak time moment, its bound to get rinsed in the coming months. Twisted is a little harder - a straighter beat signals a more heads down approach, and the bassline is sure to trigger some dancefloor scenes wherever it gets played. Next up is title track Fiction which perhaps makes a reference to Mihai’s background, with fragments of Eastern European melodies woven into the beautiful synth work, all tied together over a spacey yet driving rhythm track. Last but by no means least is Interconnected - a straight up deep bomb with echoes of classic Chicago deep and acidic house in its warm and sensual vibe.
