Since an impressive stint as musical director for Henrik Schwarz's Instruments project and the subsequent release of 2013's Holla (SUNDAY 007EP), Johannes Brecht's reputation has grown steadily with a series of carefully crafted 12"s. "Nuages" hinges on a sinuous, snake-charming synth line. Instantly memorable, it's an exquisite headphone experience that's equally deadly on the dancefloor. The lilting "Sirènes" teems with ideas, its big kick burnished with a dancing synth motif and a chamber orchestra of synthetic strings. The motorik 12-minute "Fêtes" contrasts its knotty, brittle piano line with sustained pads and bright, striking syncopations.
