Al Ferox - Scream 004

Wiggle - Good Inside
Aug 22, 2008
This record provides really interresting old sound from 1988~1992.
On A-Side «Good Inside» provides a black women vocal mixing together new Beat rythms & grooves melodies. It could merge perfectly with groovy B. Womack sounds from the same periods for instance. Then, B-side is totally different. «Stammer» brings big drums & old analog sounds in loops. A really smashed tempo on «Just Do It» reminds me the old «Do That Dance» from CJ bolland. So even some would'nt like it, I would recommend this record.
This new record from the Hacker did not impressed me at first play, but constructed by nice & calms melodies, it started fast to give me good feelings. We can listen here a kind of mix between the Hacker universe and his influences, New Order/Joy Division IMHO. This, especialy on the first track of the LP.
The song w/ miss Kittin can be greatly mixed with others classics from both of them. Nice work.

Then come «In Go We Trust», listening to a kinda party of WASP/Evangelist Americans praising to the lord, a riff of guitar start to overwhelm the room to let you jump into good choppy rhythms and bang song where you'll finally meet down-tempo knifes and psycho-killer's atmosphere letting you ready for B-side, «In Heaven», starting on kinda hardtek patterns going down to reveal you the near death experience on a Lynch movie style, a wide empty white space, are you dreaming of being childish ? This girl voice telling you everything is fine.. taking you back to the beat in a blaster & hdbanger finishing move. you wake up into a piano & horns introduction, like after the aftermath, you understand it's too late with «Hymn of Death» epitaph song.
As you may have understood Al Ferox signed here one of his masterpieces of dark techno around the «Ghost Train» period, a 5 stars classic for wacky journeys into your mixes.
