The ETAT label kicks off in fine style with this VA release of trippy wiggers for the tech house crew to get trancey too. Elias Sternin checks in first with ‘Nothing Really Dies’, a dark-tinged groover that builds on his other recent appearances, and then GNMR lands with the dirty crunch of ‘Alligator’, which seems to nod to the likes of Vitalic in its grinding electro synth touches. Luca Piermattei has fun with some oddball leads and vocoder freak outs on the delightfully wonky ‘Matrixcian’, while Troy keeps things snappy and cheeky on ‘Upfornight’. Kurilo rounds the record off with the bubbling acid and trancey pads of ‘How’.
