PARADISE CITY BREAKERS 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Italian trio Paradise City Breakers are hardly prolific - this return to Discarded Gems is just their third EP since emerging in 2020 - but their slim catalogue is packed to the rafters with artful and club-ready gems. They hit the ground running this time round with title track 'Televised Justice', a throbbing, undulating roller built around smooth house drums, Italo-disco style arpeggio bass and spacey melodies, before opting for a more trippy and sub-heavy retro-futurist sound on 'Lekkerbit', where intergalactic electro style lead lines catch the ear. Over on side two, 'P City Vice' is a chunky workout full of deep bass and psychedelic TB-303 acid lines, while 'Seeking Treasure' is a breezy, bleeping tonight full of vintage 80s synth sounds and sonic sci-fi daydreaming.
