Rated: * * * * *
Another official debut release for the CA-based Crunch Pod Media label and with the NYC-based CERVELLO ELETTRONICO a not unknown name. Leaded by David Christian (aka SNARF) this act works already since years in the underground. Self-released and hard-to-get EP’s, uncountable live supporting gigs for renowned names like TERRORFAKT or MAUFACTURA, a gig in Germany on a Planet-Myer-Day, or some well-done remix works (again TERRORFAKT for example...) are reference for internationally recognition of this hard-working act. Globally said, David likes to combine classic Electro/Industrial bass lines, broken and interrupted voice samples with newer Electronica elements and rhythmically Powernoise – although this release behaves different compared to a typically genre release. David seems to manage hard on all tracks here not to sound like a repetitive and minimal Powernoise musician, also an overwhelming use of distortion and overdrive effects can’t be heard – he simply tries not to offer the harshest and roughest release around. His tracks are far away from sounding minimal, they rather offer depth and maturity. Plus he seems to be a specialist by using of low-fi and bit rate reduction effects – as it can be heard pretty much in bass lines as well as in rhythm patterns. Intelligent constructed and tracked down, this release – like the last ENDIF release – stands highly above the average. Hard to figure out some smashing favorites, because all tracks offer uncountable ideas and well-produced authentic sounds, so that all pieces can satisfy. Take a good pair of headphones and listen to this album in one turn. You won’t get bored also after the 20th spin. A must-have release for all genre listeners, as well as for open-minded Electro/Industrial lovers.
