Description
Back
after a much lauded first foray on LENSKE last year, Sam Deliaert alias
Farrago rekindles the flame with the high-beam pulse of 'Neontrance'.
Witnessing his growth as a skillful producer and dextrous buildup
architect, the EP finds Farrago further carving
out the contours to his developing signature sound - halfway industrial
cyborg-ness, ruthless trancey syncopations and more spacious,
off-kilter cosmonautics. With announced dates including appearances at
the OFFSónar Exhale party in Barcelona, Dour Festival,
Extrema Outdoor and Feel Festival, needless to say Sam's summer is
going to be busy to say the least.
Having served as the epic topper of Amelie Lens' Timewarp 2018 set and
RA podcast, the title-track will undoubtedly ring a bell to all
self-respecting fan of the LENSKE mastermind. Melding a heavy-duty
four-to-the-floor with well-timed breaks and the kind of
fluttering bleepy melody that sticks in your head long after the
needle's lifted off the groove, the "pure emotion" of 'Neontrance' makes
for the central pivot around which the other tracks revolve and
articulate.
The EP opens with the stomping and churning 'Sinner' which examples
Deliaert's production expertise. Pulling out the trenchant katana
samples, spiralling bass and weird mouth noises, the minimalistic 'No
Jutsu' is one to crank up the heat effortlessly. Completing
the picture, the original version of 'Risin' echoes Kobosil's anthemic
revamp from last year: a bouncy joyride in acidic marshes and
hallucinogenic landscapes that's sure to slap a smile on the saddest
raver's face all the way. Techno's a party, and Farrago's
got the soundtrack for it.
