Review by Alain_Patrick Apr 01, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

referencing Magenta, 12", CR-08

Very fast, speedy Techno, though not hard makes the track on the A side (Magenta I) rather minimal, climatic, full of tiny metallic effects and deep bass lines.
The other side has Magenta II, another tune within the Monolake perspective, with a combination of kinda birdy noises fragments, dub effects, creating a hypnotic and dense atmosphere.
I wouldn't say it's the same mood of Basic Channel (or even other Chain Reaction)'s releases, but Monolake is always worthy of listening.
