Grow Vinyl Vinilo y CD

Review: Catenaccio boss Benjamin Fehr has long been serving up his oddball minimal style to the likes of Lomidhigh and Broquade, but now he is doing his thing for Grow Vinyl, channeling his pared down approach into exciting sound sources that make for fiery results. The title track has a wealth of theremin-esque noodling going on over the top of a solid bassline and slender beat, while plenty more kooky samples zip around the mix at the same time to the delight of your ears. Isherwood delivers a dense and twitchy re-rub of the track that has its own spooky, if more streamlined, charm. "Your Electronic Arms" is a gutsy offering from Fehr that steals the show on the B2, letting live drum percussion and a powerful sense of movement guide the dark and deranged arrangement forwards.

Review: Grow returns with the record Isotelus Rex by Denis Kaznacheev, complete with a remix by Daze Maxim. The title track Isotelus Rex, a 14 minute work, true to grow's eccentric nature, a track at once playful and deeply neurally stimulating, sure to shake one's body and intrigue one's mind. Wonderful decaying tones, subtly jazzy, intricate electronic communications interrelate over an irresistible bass and percussive performance, a groove which will make your swing. B1 is Daze Maxim's remix, with a more ethereal approach to Isotelus Rex, it begins through a beautiful synth. Then grows a fast and intricate bass arrangement, providing a confidently vibed way though the cosmic landscape, also another great track for the dance floor, as the same physical swing as in original is felt strong. B2 Proetida, the second original work by Denis Kaznacheev of the release, is of raw, almost rude, attitude, a strong bass descends in steps, a determined momentum, the driving force of an industrious process.

Review: Spaced-aged funk peppered with glitchy asteroid turbulence and trippy spikes in the space time continuum; Denis is back on Grow and it's extensive business from the off. "Humulene" weighs in at a beautiful mass of 14 minutes allowing it all to hang out and roll as you weave it in and out of the mix at your leisure. "Terpenoid Content" follows the same lengthy suit but with more emphasis on the lower end dubby majesty of it all.

Review: Shcaa joins Grow label with a record of eerie atmosphere and mercurial mood, completed by an extended Denis Kaznacheev remix.
