Advent, The – Time Trap Technik

This record is a classic. Especially for the "Visualize" track that was and still his a fantastic electro-techno anthem. Rarely does the electro revival of the turn of the century went up to such greatness. Cisco comes from a long way, and as times passes, he left the melodies from his early New Beat and Techno-house stuff (R and S), and got deeper and deeper into modern electro under the Advent moniker. With the CR releases, he sometimes went a bit too far, IMO, into chirugical sonic assaults, but here, he kept the balance right : hypnotic as electro, mechanic, but caressing the mind too, with simple but effective melodies.
Advent are certainly one of the few real Electro innovator of the Techno period, and this EP is a clear proof of that.
