DJ Support: 2000 and One, Karotte, Tobi Neumann, Onur Özer, Matthias Tanzmann, Ali Schwarz from Tiefscwarz... The four tracks on >Études Électroniques< find Luciano invigorated and inspired, putting his talents into the service of dancefloors at their most delirious. With its delicate skip and its slow sunrise flare, >Montana< opens the record on a blissful note, calm and suffused with light. A hollow bass tone puffs away like a glassblower as brittle rhythmic patterns spin round and round. Swelling and drifting, weightless and iridescent, it feels like chasing dawn in a hot-air balloon. >Fochedrem< eases off the throttle and cracks an ear-to-ear grin. a stubby one-note bass line beats out a kind of cartoon funk as the answering riff splinters and shapeshifts between cowbell, organ and piano. Its as slippery as the deck of a storm-tossed boat. >Masalla< features liquid congas and feathered metallic details that stand on end like magnetic shavings. Laid-back and polyrhythmic, its a future Latin maysterpiece
