Weska ‘Falling’

Artist: Weska
Title: Falling
Label: Strange Idols Recordings
Remixer: Tiger Stripes
Cat. #: SIR012
Format: Digital
Release Date: October 7th 2022
Tracklist:
1) Falling (Original Mix)

Weska gained a solid reputation as producer and remixer, getting released on important labels such as Drumcode, Truesoul and Cocoon: in the last label mentioned he just released a collaborative remix with Bart Skills of ‘Metal Master – Spectrum’. His last production titled ‘Falling’ shows a great contemporary techno style, which melts a warehouse oriented drum loop and a mental synth/vocal approach to the sounds. Tiger Stripes provides a great revisitation, adding some smoothness to the instrumental but without worning out the main theme.

In essence, ‘Dreamcore’ is a gripping stadium-sized Techno bomb with a nostalgic twist.

Mind Games is an underground techno label from Italy ran by Luca Maniaci.

Alessandro Cocco was born in Rome and studied sound design in London, making his debut on Mind Games he also has appearances on imprints such as Coded Platform, Black Line and Eclipse.

Label boss Luca Maniaci is an established artist who lists labels such as Josh Wink’s Ovum and Florian Meindl’s FLASH Recordings in his back catalogue.

“Unsolved Case” is a raw jam with thundering toms and haunting atmospherics ready to take on the dance floor.

Luca Maniaci switches up the opener with a more driving take and expands the mood with added bleeping tones.

“Unchanged Behavior” uses modular notes to form the hook over some jackin’ percussion bursting with energy.

Fourth on offer is “Unrevealed Secret” with a bouncing beat and rattling drums working with some tasteful sci-fi twinkles.

Closing with “Until Tomorrow” and its brooding aesthetic, the clean, hypnotic feel and mind-bending hook are outstanding.
