Next up is an overdue reunion with a familiar face. After his outstanding contribution to Cocoon
Compilation S
and his first solo EP on Cocoon Recordings,
Raxon
is back with a more than equally fascinating sound. The Egyptian-born and now Barcelona-based artist is back on it again, delivering two tracks that will take you on a journey through the depths of robotic soundscapes. Intricate beats, hypnotic synthesizer melodies, deep bassline grooves, and distinctive EFX sounds create Raxon's very special signature sound. Straight drum programming paired with chirping percussions takes you away to embark on a travel through space and time while distinctive claps poke through a futuristic nebula of floating and shifting sequences. The twisted melody of "Robotalia" carries you to a parallel dimension of machine sound and if you listen closely, you can hear the robots' screwing and sawing. Warping bleeps and mechanical effects complete the robotic feeling. Raxon's understanding of structures and architectural abilities are reflected through the arrangement, slowly increasing to ecstasy. "Kryptonite" scores with alien soundscapes. Stuttering vocals are the questions, while futuristic and dramatic chord stabs are the direct answer. A straight, radiant sound appears as an electronic trombone from outer space, offensively supporting the driving bassline. The symbiotic interplay between the euphoric synthesizer hook line and the relentless beat with pushing sharp hi-hats visualize powerful images in one's mind's eye. Suddenly the beat stagnates and results in a morphing break going head over heels developing a start-stop pitch effect that not only builds up tremendous tension but also bears an increased risk of melting your brain.
