my ears are throbbing in all the right ways
Straight shots of adrenaline to the heart. Luca Eck’s productions hit the nervous system in those irresistibly (meta)physical ways. Like racing through the city, windows open, bass blasting: the Berlin-based producer conjures those feral sweat soaked moments, now forever christened in their newest EP FLESH.
Barring 5 tracks, the EP opens its doors with a fuzzed out ambient ballad featuring performance artist River Roux sermonizing over the hum of warmly levitating synths on MORPH. Sonically cleansed, FLESH unravels, piece by piece, ligament by ligament, into ravey electronic mayhem. On GUTS, DETO BLACK’s (dare I say swagger?) bars meet the overflowing dubbed out bass of Eck in perfect club-tool harmony. Buzzing electroclash strips down on title track FLESH with PC music princess Namasenda, all the while we hear nusar3000’s purring baile playing tug of war against infectiously trancey angular harmonies from the smoking area VENUS.
FLESH leaves the ears throbbing, pulsing, ready to surrender <3 You can listen to FLESH now on wherever you choose to stream your music.
