Details:
Cervello Elettronico, another well established act since 2001, joins HANDS and presents his ownbrand of industrial-tinged techno on the 13 tracks of “Anima Meccanica” - an idiosyncratic blend ofatmospheric backdrops, occasional distortion, tempting beats and apt quotations from electronicmusic history.The album glistens with polished production value and will prove a gadget suited for all intents andpurposes in an electronic household. On the HANDS map, “Anima Meccanica” puts Cervello Elettronico in the uncharted territory between the industrial dub techno of label stalwart Orphx and the distinctly technoid side of Nullvektor – with some electronica experimentation thrown in for good measure.A number of tracks are what could be called relaxed industrial techno - darker atmospheres and convoluted midtempo beats which regularly shift and change in tempo. Some dance floor food is also to be found: “She’s got Damage” convinces with infectious beats and warm distortion, “Pulse” carries a strong dub techno/minimal vibe while “People are still People” plays with an EBM-ish bassline. After a good hour the album comes to its conclusion with the fuzzy beats of “Splinter”.“Anima Meccanica” is a high quality, entertaining and coherent album with an absorbing atmosphere!Released late October, 2013 on Hands.Track Listing01 Last Words02 Bad Ground03 Vertebrae04 Instant Trauma05 Impact06 She’s got Damage07 Down the Line08 Animalism09 Pulse10 Source Code11 People are still People12 Too much too fast13 Splinter
