Donato Dozzy - 124 [Treasure]

Modest maestro of techno music, Donato Dozzy, returns to Tresor Records on its 30th anniversary with a new EP entitled 124. This record follows a majestic appearance on the Tresor 30th anniversary compilation and his expert devotion to the Roland TB-303, Filo Loves The Acid. True to form, 124 blends sharp rhythmic minimalism and diverse textures, each track pushing the epiphanic threshold as the Spazio Disponibile boss allows his deeply intuitive productions to take effect.

"Messy Kafka World" introduces a frantic, focused atmosphere of rhythmic forces, hallucinatory and euphoric in effect. Its dizzying staccato loops are structured with bolstered beats and shadowy synthetic pillars. "Synthi Chase" issues radical powers, as humming grooves and monotonic synths make raw gestures toward altered states. It shares a kindred spirit with "Cassiopeia 36", seen particularly through its determined and primal pulses, nested within teetering wooden percussions and nervous synth repetitions. "Wooden Dolls Don’t Cry" imprints a warm groove, its temperate percussion taking center stage as gleaming melodic loops threaten spiral feedback. These dark and hypnotic tracks are perfectly timed to generate hypnotic moments on dancefloors and in relaxed bodies.

124 represents Donato Dozzy increasingly expanding his powers and musical freedom. His innate groove and inventive sound design push minimalist and serene techno with a substantial weight and voice that sets him apart.
