TURNTABLE LAB

the lab review

Smash on, my fellow electro heads! This new one from Institubes artist MSK features their new single "Lunar," along with the "Side Story," a dark warehouse electro noise grinder that's sure to have fans breaking their bodies. "Lunar(1)" is a square bass, vocal chop, monster of a track. The first half is all build up, but then in the middle, that's where the vocal chops come in hypnotizing you with a wave of tones until the beat drops. The "Lunar Edit" is the short attention version bringing the vocal build up closer to the front for a quicker climax. The intro to "Side Story(2)" is more along what I like. A funky electro house slap bass loop, until it reaches pandemonium with heavy square bass hits and intricate layering. If you think that's crazy, check the Das Glow Remix(3) for the heaviness. Those faint of heart, take caution. This is noise electro turned up to 10. I know Minimal Man will hate this, but fans of Boys Noise, ZZT and Puzique will love it.
