Description
2019, 2×12″ LP, Clone West Coast Series.
Some nine months on from the last album release under the Exaltics alias – the acid-fuelled electro of “Das Heise Experiment 2” – Robert Witschakowski is back with another full-length effort. While there are some sonic similarities to its predecessor, Witschakowski has really ratcheted up the intergalactic influences, with the vast majority of the material on show sitting somewhere between the undersea heaviness of Drexciya and the futurist, sci-fi-fired deep space vibes that have long been associated with electro. There are a few downtempo moments, but for the most part the storied producer keeps his sights set on the dancefloor. Highlights are plentiful and include the crystalline creepiness of “One”, the throbbing intensity of “Skyway Chase” and the moody, ERP style deep electro of “Missing Places”. – Juno
