MM Discos 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: The decorated Spanish producer and DJ Henry Saiz, who operates under the novel character moniker Hal Incandenza, has been in the scene for 15 years now. He comes to us this time with an EP under MM Discos, a 12" stringing together deep house, nu-disco and techno sensibilities mixed with classic vocal samples. The patchwork of genres is a floor filler, the sub bass sure to get heads rocking on 'Ceremony', the classic house references on 'Incivitas' being too perfect not to groove to. For something more retro futuristic and techno-house, Marvin & Guy punch in another fantastic remix for this record, giving their interpretation of 'Incivitas' a far more theatrical sound, less danceable and more thoughtful.

Review: MM Discos provides its first full-length listening experience here courtesy of Seungyoung Lee (aka Mogwaa) who returns in top form. He has a very distinctive take on modern boogie that is always aimed at the floor but never short on character. Here his love of 80s synth and bossa sounds shines through on 'Hazy Dreams' which is an exercise in simplicity from the talented instrumentalist. The aesthetic here pays homage to old cassette tapes and how they decay, fuzz up sound and generally instills things with this down sepia tint. The sodas range from gentle morning awakenings to late-night dancefloor get-downs.
