._RELEASE NOTES________ .

. .
. Retail in its full form. .

. -h3rb 2006- .
. .
. Following on from Ewan Pearson, Cadenza's Luciano steps up .
. for Soma Records to mix Volume 2 in its compilation series .
. 'Sci.Fi.Hi.Fi'. Created using only vinyl and his bare hands .
. the mix illustrates Luciano's raw talents as a DJ. .
. .
. Kicking off on 'Orange' by D:Uni:Son, the mix begins on a .
. head nodding feel; intense electronic music, drenched in .
. melody, rhythm and intimacy. John Thomas' 'Basilic' ups the .
. groove with its punchy vocal sample and choppy short chords .
. while the intense whistle build up and chunky strips of .
. clappy chords on Tadeo's 'Bateria Lup' prove Luciano knows .
. exactly what rocks big sound systems the world over. .
. .
. The groove dips a little balearic courtesy of 'Exercise' by .
. Samim & Michal, which revolves around a short vocal chant, .
. two simple sirens and some steel drum percussion. By the .
. time the dark, ghostly samples and old electronic melody of .
. Serafin's 'Starship Discotheque' arrive, Luciano is really .
. working the speakers. .
. .
. Luciano raises the stakes a little higher via Solieb's .
. 'Lovesong' with its twisted short vocal that transforms .
. around a smouldering attack of samples, chords, and punchy .
. synths, later followed by Adam Beyer's big Plus 8 hit, 'A .
. Walking Contradiction'. The transition from the .
. tech/house/minimal/slightly electro 'Las Velas No Arden' by .
. Alejandro Vivanco into Ricardo Villalobos' 'Ichso' is one .
. of the finest mixes on the CD - crushed strings and hi-hats .
. arouse the senses in a subtle manner as awkward guitar .
. riffs run riot on the sound system. .
. .
. Towards the end, teenage prodigy of sorts, John Dahlback .
. lifts proceedings with a schism of minimal/electro before .
. Luciano closes out with 'Earth Beats' from Mule Musiq's .
. Kuniyuki. A real epic number, encompassing all elements of .
. jazz, afro, Latin, drums, guitars, strings and all things .
. quantised and raw, for once, this isn't a big "F*ck off, .
. I'm riding my K-Hole" kind of final track. .
. .
. 'Sci.Fi Hi.Fi Vol.2' is all about rhythmic emotion, plain .
. and simple, moody and percussive with hints of soul and .
. intimacy. The tracks from start to finish really push an .
. optimistic feeling strung with passion and energy. My only .
. qualm is that there is no CD2 and despite the brilliant .
. vinyl-only mixing I would like to have seen the use of .
. additional DJ technology, to really highlight Luciano's .
. considerable talents. People will over analyse and pinpoint .
. spots of irritant here or there but book yourself a night .
. alone with a great sound system and that's when you will .
. really appreciate this mix. .
