Audio & Future Signal / Audio - Furyen / Power Of Fear flac album

It was fitting that I made my long-time coming debut review with this release. And what a release! For me the A-side steals the show: 'Furyen' is classic technoid neurofunk in the vein of the Nine, or Ed & Op anthems- claustrophobic, yet sparse and spacious, tense, militant and stepping. A swaggering two-step beat combined with a pitch black, vapour-like bass drive, topped with pulsing stabs completing a powerful experience. Only guys like Audio, Phace & N.Phect can create something so sick out of such simple elements. It works like a dream. 10/10'The Power of Fear' lives up to what its name describes, and nearly reaches the heights of the flip side. Movie samples are used to create a real sense of foreboding which builds and builds in the intro, before dropping into something similarly tense. While not exactly a club banger of a tune, its a nice Subtitles gem as Audio uses his maturity to manipulate the bass frequencies masterfully. 8.5/10All in all this is a very good record from the classic label- don't sleep on it.
