DKMNTL 053EP
|
Dekmantel regular Matrixxman returns with the third, and final installment in the Sector series, Part III: Polyphony. "Initiation" resonates with the grandiosity, and harsh claustrophobia of early Underground Resistance. "Access Granted" drives hard with pulsing effects, with a dystopic, rhythmic cacophony of euphony. "Desert Planet" plays around with a differing tempo, imagining a more fantastical vision of music, echoing back to earlier Plastikman productions, using a vast sonic spectrum to conjure up a color palette of alien imagery. "Horizon" rounds things off; a track that builds on minimalism with a progressive composition, allowing the polyphonics to drive the track.

DKMNTL 022EP
|
Matrixxman, a beat-maker based in San Francisco, joins the ranks of Dekmantel regulars like MFO and Juju & Jordash with the Nubian Metropolis EP, a four-track effort hewn from choking synth sounds, itchy bleeps, and meaty drum programming. "Cybernetic Implant" and "System Blackout" pit bulky percussion and robust low-end against brittle robot chatter, while "Sermons" and "Siamese Twins" add a touch of cosmic energy with breaths of airy pads.
