Luca Draccar – Leclipse (EP – Lush Point)

Inferno Sound Diaries — Wed, 11 Oct 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Genre/Influences: Dark-Techno, Techno-Body.

Format: Digital.

Background/Info: Operating from Berlin (Germany) Italian born Luca Draccar strikes back with three new songs. It has been released on his very own label Lush Point.

Content: Luca Draccar moves on exploring further fields of Techno music. “Leclipse” features 3 danceable cuts moving from dark and danceable to Techno-Body music with a catchy touch on top and even a few vocals to end with a retro-90s-like track.

+ + + : I like the diversity of the work for mixing different influences together. The main sound and style remains Techno-driven but always injected with this darker, underground touch ‘made in Berlin’. There’s something to say about each track although I’ve a preference for both first cuts “Ready To Loose Control” and “Flying Satellites”.

– – – : The last song “I Can Stop” sounds retro-like but the tune running through it is pretty cliché and outdated.

Conclusion: Not the best work I’ve heard from this artist although it remains cool Techno stuff to dance on.

Best songs: “Ready To Loose Control”, “Flying Satellites”.

Rate: 6½.

Luca Draccar – Neo Noir Plaisir (EP – Lush Point)

Inferno Sound Diaries — Sat, 08 Jan 2022 08:00:00 +0000

Genre/Influences: Techno, Trance, Electro.

Format: Digital.

Background/Info: Based in Berlin (Germany) with Italian roots, Luca Draccar set up his music project in 2018. He released several productions on his own label Lush Point, the three songs featured on “Neo Noir Plaisir” being his newest exposure.

Content: I think there’s no other music style than Techno to start describing this EP. The songs are driven by groovy loops, but quite progressively other influences are joining in. “Mouse In Trap” evolves a rather Trance with some mystic resonating sound effects right at the end. “The Black White Palm” features some Tribal-like drum patterns on top of the song.

+ + + : Luca Draccar deals with a wider canvas of Techno music; he simply enlarges the horizon of Techno music by adding related influences like Trance and adding something extra and a little bit exotic like Tribal. This EP features 3 different, but cool cuts.

– – – : The EP is cool and fully enjoyable, but I can’t say this artist is adding something new.

Conclusion: “Neo Noir Plaisir” is a cool EP title for exigent Techno lovers.

Best songs: “Mouse In Trap”, “Margot”.
