Following the acclaimed séries of Mathew Johnson, The fine label from BC turns to electronica with Hrd Vsion's first release. 4 tracks alternate complex broken beats and linear drums, dark landscapes and dancefloor effect. Inspired by Autechre early works, talented Hrd Vsion makes electronica & warm analog techno goes round (check "do you ever really know", hip hop cuts à la Team Doyobi). Highlight: "oh techo saves" perfect headbanger tune, devasting clipping drums, epic synth surrounding everything... Wow! What a trip! Not the average kind of stuff but a really innovative tune for open ears.
