Mikrowave releases are a precious resource and the latest from Cassegrain is a
peach. The metamorphic beast on the A-side came about when Turkish opera
composer and production partner in Cassegrain worked with Alex Tsiridis at the
Barcelona Red Bull session in 2008, pitting their ideas for an extraordinary
techno fusion. When the track starts it feels like it's playing at the wrong
speed, but as the percussion subliminally infiltrates we realise the drag effect
is part of the game, creating a druggy tension that's toyed with odd vocal
samples from Benga Adejumo (yup, one and the same), until an unexpected halfstep
resolution in the closing quarters. Everyone from Sigha to Matt O'Brien is
raving about this track and you should be too! On the flip Drumcode and Ovum
contributor Perc evens out the oddness with a straighter kicking mix primed for
the DJs and Cassegrain's own 'Olbia' churns out viscous bass riffs with a
mediterranean flourish that's getting DJs like Norman Nodge and Par Grindvik
excited. Killer.
