After three long years spent in their clandestine research facility, Vienna s prime electro scientists once again emerge: Binary Systems is the title of their lastest transmission, a five track mini-album to be released this June on TRUST. Generated on Microthol s formidable array of vintage analogue gear, Binary Systems sonic spectrum ranges from classic, hard-hitting techno bass to Sähko-esque sine-wave assaults and fragile Detroit-style electro.
Feedback:
DJ Stingray 313: The Binary systems Ep is going into my sets right away ! "Deceptive Behavior" is a nice change of pace and pleasantly hypnotic... Top shelf electronic craftsmanship from the Microthol paradigm.
K-1 / Aux88: Microthol: Are Entities form planet vienna created from the labs of detroit . Microthol pick up where the drexycian style left off, THIS NEWEST EP IS NO EXCEPTION....GET IT NOW".
Marco Passarani (Nature, Pigna, Peace Frog) "i'm not playing much of electro based tunes nowadays, and maybe one of the reasons is the fact that not many records like this one are available among the new releases! this is absolutely a top 12", and my favourite is Deceptive Behaviour. Will definitively spin this one".
Newcleus/ Cozmo D: "These are exciting times for Electro, and the excitem ent level just got raised a bit higher with the new mini-album release from Microthol, "Binary System". My favorite of the collection is "Fragile", which drips with melody. Almost jazzy in it's approach, it has a dope funky bass line, a high string pad, an actual chordal structure, sick, percolating, bubbling melodic sounds, effects and keyboard lines, and a singing robot vocoder chorus. All things to make an old Electro Funk warrior smile".
Electric Indigo: "brilliant, classy electro with old school spirit and up-to-date sound - i just love the transparency of the sound textures and the dark, sometimes melancholic atmosphere of the tracks. thus, my favorite here is schwarzschild effect, the most saturnian of all 5 tunes. however, i am amazed how these two guys from vienna have pursued their characteristic funkiness that always gives their music a frisky and light touch. beyond that, microthol exhibit a distinct proficiency in arrangment... excellent"!
DJ Elin / Auto Repeat: "Das neue Microthol Elektro Vinyl glänzt mit aussergewöhnlichen Sounds und teuren Effekten die zumindestens früher den Pros vorbehalten waren.Hier ergänzen sich kühle Germanik und Detroit Technofunk auf eine Weise die Electrofans nicht enttäuschen wird.
