Italians may do it better - ice cream, pasta, genuine leather, - but surely not at queue for berghain and of course everything's still about music in berlin, like this release from berlin's NHOW NHOW. A really dynamic duo, who torch everything live if it ain't moving. An extraordinarily self sufficient musical project with a nonchalant manner of combining live instruments, singing ( dont worry, not yet ) and electronica on point as if it was the easiest thing in the world. There is also still the right balance, where fun and deepness clash, leaving the absurd and chunky elements out of the picture altogether; hence the fine details. There are still scores of mighty deeds waiting in the future, as well as on this fine release with a degree of timelessness. Seldom have such unerring club thumps, the essence of a housy swing and musical pretense ever so close together, that the nightly congregation can completely be in agreement -- head music for the extremities with the beatitude still intact; cool entertainment is introduced. NATZE HEY: An absolute house jam housed in a classic length! As if the violent preacher strolling with the chicago collection of their fathers explodes upon contact with a high voltage cable. GRANDE FINALE:After listening 30 seconds you just know there is going to be some joyfully rapid hand movements feeding the MPC with an impactful fulfillment of sweeps and bass drums without toot and voice swept under the rug. BEL AMI: Veranda-house driven with a perfectly evened-out balance between pressure and space.
