Mesak

Elektorni, based in the city of Oulu, lands with their second record, this time with three original cuts from the singular Finnish legend Mesak (Klakson, Orson) and a mesmerising remix from Picture (Help Recordings, Kalahari Oyster Cult).

The A-side opens with Mutella, a slapping electro track powered by a growling bassline and dripping with gothic emotion. Next up is Ei Damagea, a smooth slice of electrohypnotism calling to you from an otherworldly dimension inhabited by floaty rhythms and quirky synth stabs. Flip the record, and Mesak flexes his versatility with the 155 bpm piece Musantropia, cruising top down and top speed somewhere between electro, IDM and D&B. Fresh! The journey ends with Picture’s remix taking Musantropia deep into an eight-minute techno meditation reminiscent of Basic Channel material, but with an Århusian take on the sound.

A bass heavy record laced with intricate detail. A release as ready for the club as it is for your home hi-fi system.
