“temple of noize” is released as a limited edition cassette and digital download. the soundscape, formed over 11 tracks features harsh electronic noise coupled with lush granular synthesis and classical compositional techniques. fabio martinelli, hailing from ferarra in italy’s emilia-romagna region has created a piece that flows seamlessly in and out of sleepy melodies and broken drones.

as a man well versed in the moves of the old-school, fabio monesi launches his albion imprint with the immaculately executed styles of 623, full of sexy 90s synth notes and crisp, pumping beats. washerman brings a more rugged style on his remix of the tune, dropping in some cheeky and thoroughly familiar samples, while the melody wobbles around an amorphous scale. the peephouse finds monesi reaching back to the soothing organ tones of the dx7, with a gentle and piano-driven throw down that stills carries plenty of heft for the floor. rio padice steps up for another remix of 623 and spreads a strange and nervous shape-shifter of a late-night jam, scattering the vocals like confetti and nudging the drums out of joint on a whim.

after the hit >confiara< (vibe002) fabio alampi gives us another awesome dancefloor bomb! vibe005 >escape< pushes loud from the first to the last beat of kick, surfing in a techno percussion kit, dancing on a killer bass-line stoled from the dirty detroit club of late 90s that lets you trip when an incredible dark voice speaks directly to your soul. cant miss an amazing series of remixes, opened by the big-boss alan fitzpatrick . (drumcode/soma/sleaze), essential and straight, violent and elegant, powerfull detroitish pure techno. we will find the same detroit-vibes also in the remix by francesco bonora (abstract theory/plastic city), gumming and bright ambient, big kick, far voices. so good. &#8232,,,,,,,to close the remixes, sarp yilmaz (apparel) retouched the original mix to create a really grooving old housy beat, slowly and rolling. can you escape?
