When music historians take a look back at 2008, it will come as no surprise that
the year wasn't the best in terms of techno output. With cries of Abe Duque's
legendary track "What Happened?" reverberating throughout the industry, 2009 is
poised to be the year where techno makes it comeback. Chicago based producer
Billy Dalessandro needs no introduction. He has been there to witness the many
changes techno has gone through in the past decade, and offers "Polis" as his
response. Featuring 11 tracks, his debut album for Soniculture (and fourth
artist album in his career) is a look at city structure ("Polis" being the Greek
word bearing the meaning "city"), the crumbling facades amidst urban decay. The
world is headed into one of its most uncertain times, and that fear is reflected
in these dark productions that Dalessandro created with late nights and early
mornings in mind. For from the darkest hours great things often emerge, and when
music historians look back on 2009 as the year that techno made its comeback,
"Polis" will certainly be among those works receiving great praise. The vinyl
version of "Polis" will be formed by a series of releases with tracks from the
album, that will come out later on cd and mp3. This is volume 1, which contains
"Acidburn" and features a very special remix from Gui Boratto. A perfect way to
kick off this project. This is an amazing track which shows how futuristic Billy
can be. A hypnotic bassline, with acid influences, takes us through a
multidimensional journey into space, fuelled by the most exquisite techno. A
true gem that proves Billy's originality and capability of surprising us in
every release. Keeping the idea of the original bassline, the south american
wonder boy Gui Boratto, produced the perfect remix for "Acidburn". By making it
more progressive and emotional, it gains a different appeal. The piano detail is
superb and in a way reminds us of Steve Bug's "Loverboy". The result is amazing.
A great piece of work from one of the world's most special electronic musician.
Our release contains 2 digital remixes by Hugh Hephner and Expander. Enjoy!
