12″ – U&A
Pur se accompagnato da proclami dalle coloriture anarco-situazioniste (‘Voting Is Irrelevant, I Am Your Leader’), Zodiac Cartel è in realtà più seriamente impegnato in ben altri ‘movimentismi’. Sonorità jackin’ house con un anima techno, è questo il reale credo del nostro, e ne abbiamo conferma sin dalle prime note di ‘We Don’t Play That’, assoluta bombazza di derivazione anche fidget, saltellante e glicciatissima, a 127 bpm, con effettati vocal, frullerie, lavatrici isteriche e sgommate digitali. Si cede in quanto a battute (125 stavolta) ma non in qualità, in ‘El Maestro’, traccia fascinosa, venata da progressive iperboli ma dall’andamento alquanto insinuante, psichedelico e avvolgente. Assolutamente da avere, in linea – e ancor meglio – rispetto all’eccelenza consueta espressa dalla label di Elite Force.
