Genre/Influences: Minimal-electro, techno-EBM.
Background/Info:
French producer Maxime Fabre who’s active
under the Crystal Geometry-moniker has been already released many noticeable
productions. I especially think about his work released on Adam-X’s label Sonic
Groove. For this new 12”, he joined hands together with the industrial label
Hands.
Content:
The influences haven’t changed from
previous productions. Maxime Fabre remains driven by solid bass lines, which he
mixes with pumping kicks. The tracks remain dark, but always driven by
danceable vibes and icy sound treatments. Some passages will possibly lead you
into trance.
+ + + :
This production sees Hands becoming more
techno-orientated than ever before. But the work remains dark enough to appeal
for the Hands audience, and also for lovers of minimal-EBM and
techno-body-music as well. Crystal Geometry shows great writing skills driven
by alluring bass lines and pumping dance kicks. “Deathcare USA” appears to be a
title with a clear message, but it also is a great song with a trance
sensation. The EP features 4 different cuts and there’s not one single piece to
throw away.
– – – :
I can imagine some Hands die-hard freaks
will have some difficulties to see their favorite industrial label diving a bit
more into techno-fields.
Conclusion:
Crystal Geometry is progressively becoming
a real reference when it comes to minimal electronics and
industrial-body-music.
Best songs:
“Deathcare USA”, “Totale Aliénation”,
“Enslaved”
