the second release on infidel bodies has as its protagonist -le moderniste- for his debut on the italian label, he produced an album industrial / rhythmic noise, a tribute to some legends of noise music such as: marco corbelli (atrax morgue), maurizio bianchi, tairy ceron (today i m dead), rozz williams. this album is an evocation to sacrality and mysterious fascination of death. the artist radicalizes his sound in this release, getting the result: -a strong work, dark, dirty, it smells death and filth- (le moderniste) this special edition provides a particular package composed of two bags stapled with inside: transparent cassette c60 pro-dubbed, artworks (by paul van trigt), hand-sewn insert, black nitrile gloves.

modernista returns with new music from paul bennett aka duster valentine! modthree features two tracks - *overtaking on the inside lane* is a sparse, wild pitch-style rhythm track built around modulating chord sounds. on the flip *apologies apparently unnecessary* is a more individual take on the melodic deep house sounds of chicago that paul first hinted at on modone.

modernista make a very welcome return after dropping their now classic debut 12 on us last year the architect of that raw late 80s machine music homage, paul bennett is back in charge here one of pauls formative influences during his youth was the music made by the first wave of techno producers from detroit. this release attempts to bring back some of the drama and pure funk of that sound. electronic music for the head, heart and feet. immaculately programmed maydayesque drum machines, emotive & expansive pitch bent synths, thundering low frequencies and clanks galore. this is a supercharged rewiring of the detroit blueprint in three startlingly well executed flavours.
