Artefakt – The Radiant City 12"
Label Deep Sound Channel
Cat DSC013
Format 12" Vinyl, Blue Marbled
Artefakt come from the deepest branch of techno. The partnership of Robin Koek (Cyspe) and Nick Lapien (Metropolis, Rhine) have explored subterranean caverns, dense forests and unknown lands on labels like Prologue, Field and Delsin and their latest three track expedition on DSC continues that journey into the beyond. "Raid" is a near nine minute odyssey, a trip into shimmering cymbals, acid growls, placid lakes and ritualistic rhythms. The flip finds a breaking in the dense foliage: "The Radiant City", a sanctuary of soaring strings, soothing pads and entrancing harmonies. "Lichtspiel" writes a different tale. Muted tones are ruffled by an industrial edge, the hand of man and the rise of the machine blended with a natural and organic warmth. A 12" rooted in the undisturbed and unspoilt lands of the ancient.
Please note: The cover comes with a little seam split on top, caused during the transport to my shop
