Rising UK duo Mia Mendi returns for their second outing on Watergate Records with the retro-tinged Robosynapse EP. The label debut of Mia Mendi was a notable 2021 highlight for the Oberbaumbrücke imprint. Titled Ubi, the EP was a collaboration with Thomas Gandey and demonstrated their full-bodied dancefloor approach, injecting their unique sound signature into a modern progressive house palette. "Robosynapse" is no less exciting (or fun). The title track is a plump nu wave houser, driven by soaring retro synths, a gutsy electro bassline and an '80s guitar solo. "Simulated Reality" buzzes and hums, seven minutes of emotional electro and crispy drumlines, before handing the baton to "Cyborg String", which continues the dreamy throwdown. Alan Dixon makes his first contribution to Watergate Records and re-fashions "Robosynapse" into a glistening cosmic-tinged beast, amplifying the focus on the guitar lead. Fresh off her label debut with the excellent Mind Control EP, Henri Bergmann makes a welcome return to re-work "Simulated Reality" into a powerful melodic gem, heightening the focus on the synths. An added bonus to the pack, Musumeci delivers a supreme chugging re-work of "Ubi".
