HYPE 066EP
|
Lucretio and Marieu, AKA The Analogue Cops, are back on Hypercolour for the Flimsy Output EP. On "Higher & Higher", Lucretio serves up some prime-time underground vocal house vibes; a filtered vocal and string combo flourishes around a hefty kick drum whilst acidic bleeps rain down. On "Give Out", Lucretio opts for more astute sampling, wrapping a soulful vocal around a loping percussive beat and incessant keys. Marieu reduces the BPMs on "Hit The Power" for a lazy, shuffling jam. Jacking things back up for "XA Swing", Marieu deploys reverberating beats, garage light organs, and transposed vocal refrains.

HYPE 046EP
|
Italian producers Lucretio and Marieu aka The Analogue Cops split this 12"; "Vampire Killer" is Lucretio's ode to bit-crushed techno, with 135+ beats-per-minute of face-melting drum machine funk and beautifully distorted melodies (taken from the MSX2 game Vampire Killer). The bitty melodic phrases of Lucretio's "Shinobi" push the track into orchestral territory, with heady arpeggios and feel-good melodies. Marieu's "Corona" takes things into harder, darker territory with deep sine-wave bass and impeccably mixed drums. "McGraw" waltzes into vintage Chicago territory; with looping funk samples and slamming drums, this track proves you don't need 20 channels to make a burner.
