12″ – Funkatech
Sono ancora Phil e Mo Jones, insieme a Dan Smart, ovvero gli Specimen A – su Funkatech – e questo è il secondo capitolo della saga ‘Hazardous Material’, già abrasiva nella prima parte (risalente al settembre del 2008), ancor più caustica ed efficace adesso, con ‘Exodus RIP’ e ‘Hard Times’
. La prima di queste due tracce adesso citate, a 136 bpm, ben seghettata e tagliente, con fascinosi sample vocali e un attitudine drammaticamente cinematica, breaks tune dai grassissimi synth assassini che pompa a più non posso fra influenze calibratamente esotiche. Anche ‘Hard Times’, a soli (si fa per dire) 130 bpm, a suo modo è assai energetica e coinvolgente, pregna di sciabolate digitali, fonde ed ellittiche, ipervivida per cesure, seppur mossa e all’incrocio di molti generi stilistici. Gran qualità produttiva, insomma: come sempre ci s’attende dalla Funkatech.
