For their fourth release, Happy Skull present a trio of dystopian fantasies from analogue maverick Marco Bernardi.
With a distinguished track record behind him, the bristol based Glaswegian needs little introduction. Here, he presents an EP dripping with pulsating analogue rhythms, alien synths and intergalactic swing.
'Floating' is a throbbing trip into rattling techno territory. Scattergun stabs, discordant chords and acid flecked electronics ride a militant analogue groove.
'Broken Boiler' offers a trademark Bernardi fusion of sweet, visceral melodies and rough analogue funk.Ragged 303 tweaks, raw bottom end and intense machine drums.
'Upside In' is a fearless voyage into freaky techno funk territory. All twisted synth bass, hissing cymbals and nightmarish, off-key melodies.
'Floating was played by DJ TLR (Creme Organization) on his recent Fact Mix, and 'Upside In' was featured on Marco Bernardi's recent podcast for Little White Earbuds. Aswell as this it has recieved DJ support from the likes of Midland and Kowton, amongst others.
This release has also been featured on Juno Plus, The Ransom Note, and the Burek music website.
