Hed Kandi - Twisted Disco

Rex The Dog takes a walk from CD1 to CD2, fetching 'Prototype', an electro-pop, Kraftwerkesque number, followed by Akabu's moody 'Phuture Bound', whose jagged strings and mind-bending keys combine the twisted and more traditional NY house sounds. Chris Lake's 'Changes' also preserves elements of lighter house where its emotive piano line, melody and popping bongos combine with high octane contemporary sounds. Current favourite Trentmoller's subtle, mix of Yoshimoto builds, holds back and builds with its rigid rhythm, bubbling electronic flourishes and synth waves to create a first class piece of electronic dance music. Like Murk on too many e-numbers, Mark Night's massive 'Insatiable' literally roars with power. These levels hold out till the end with Rob Wilder and Wes Clarke's mix of Shiny Grey and Tiga's throbbing trance-tastic, building remix of Tribulations by LCD Soundsystem. All tracks featured manage to be deep and sophisticated without ever being monotonous or po-faced, making for an enjoyable insight into another dimension of the Hed Kandi world.
