Mr. Dello
Mazepsou (Voiski remix)
Athens-based artist Mr. Dello brings a love of industrial and dark techno to his sounds.
This brand new EP sees him deliver two tracks inspired by his techno roots.
The title track kicks off this EP with heavyweight kicks that will rattle warehouse walls. They are hard and flat-footed while caustic synths wash about the mix and ghoulish voices add extra darkness and intensity. The equally powerful ‘Kapioka’ has filtered acid lines spraying about over rolling and earth-shattering kicks that will ensure peak-time dance floor eruption.
Remixer Voiski is a live performer and DJ and with Iranian roots and a love of classic electro as well as one of the seminal artist on the Sheik ’N’ Beik having released two ‘Spotlight Diktat’ and ‘Soundless Pattern of the Tortoise’s Walk’. He is involved with several collaborative projects including being one-half of Polar Inertia and has been hugely
prolific on labels like Delsin and Bassiani. His take on ‘Mazepsou’ is lit up with bright, flashing synth motifs while the drums become broken and lumpy. It’s a euphoric cut in the most devilish of ways.
The 2nd remix is from Simone Gatto who released Sheik ‘N’ Beik’s only full length LP album to date.He is at the helm of southern Italian techno label Out-Er. Also known for his ambient sound therapy work, his warm and hypnotic sounds gets dancers into a meditative state. His dub of ‘Kapioka’ lays down vast rubbery kicks and cavernous sub-bass while the deft synth modulations whip about and the whole track ebbs and flows like turbulent seas during a Mid-Atlantic storm.
