WILLIAM ARIST 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: More mysterious acid-fired fare on leading Dutch techno label Planet Rhythm. In keeping with its predecessor, released earlier this year, the 'Acid Blood' EP has no credited artist. Whoever is behind the EP has done a fine job though, with all four tracks offering an excitable, addictive blend of raw, loopy, hard-wired TB-303 riffs, bouncy techno beats and booming bass. There's plenty to set the pulse racing across the EP, from the genuinely mind-altering excellence of 'The Dream Book', which recalls the stretched-out wonder of Choice classic 'Acid Eiffel', and the layered, red raw insanity of opener 'Stickman', to the redlined insanity of 'Acid Blood' and industrial techno slammer 'Unmentionable'. Breathless and brilliant - more please!

Review: Vital and versatile techno label Planet Rhythm has another super dance floor adventure on its hands here with William Arist's My PH EP. It is a no-nonsense tackle from the off with 'Cloro' a blistering mix of sharp acid entangled with fizzing synth lines and pummelling drums. 'Acidificado' is even more intense, this time with banging drums falling off balance each time they land and wonky synths propping them up as best they can. The title track 'My PH' then strips things back to linear and dubbed out techno heaviness and icy hi-hats madness, all run through with molten acid. "I'm The Machine' is a video game techno frenzy with caustic, eye-watering texture.
