Izaakson presents Troy EP

Izaakson has earned a fine reputation in the scene over the last two decades as a DJ and producer with a stylish sound. He has spent the last 10 years solely focused on running his label, but after several invites to return to the forefront, he is now back playing and making fresh sounds again. The first music of this new chapter has come on Memoria Records and Cardinal and Invade Records, and earlier this year, he launched the "IZIL" project with Massimo Girardi and Ilario Liburni. Now in solo mode, he offers up some essential club-ready grooves.

The "Troy" opener is a slick and stripped-back tech cut with balmy synths circling around the snappy snares. Clever vocal fragments drop in and out as the power of the hefty kicks along this most compelling backroom cuts. The excellent "Tek No" is a perfectly reduced brew of deft synth modulations and rubbery drums. It comes alive with tripped-out melodic phrases as the hypnotic bass keeps dancers locked. The pace picks up with the deep, dynamic, and punchy "Nomad," which has curious effects and filtered vocals, all bringing the groove to life next to the party starting and acid-tinged synths. "Rosada" closes down with menacing energy, and twisted synth leads over more well-defined drums and yet another irresistible bassline.
