Sci Fi Hi Fi Volume 3
Soma
TECH HOUSE
SOMA's 'SCI. FI. HI. FI.' mix series goes from strength to strength with the 3rd edition coming from label star ALEX SMOKE who has been a temp resident here In Australia as part of the RED BULL Academy.
2006 has been a landmark year for ALEX MENZIES, releasing his mighty 'Paradolia' record this year, to remixing musical heroes STEVE REICH, JUNIOR BOYS and DEPECHE MODE. >Now he has assembled a selection of tracks that perfectly define his influences and DJing style,his versatility and talent as a DJ and a producer with his mix that scours the depth of his collection to craft a deep, haunting trip to the outer realms of cutting edge electronic music.
The result is a compelling journey through electronica, dubstep, electro and techno which is commingled with obscure gems, classic Detroit and some unreleased nuggets from Mr Smoke himself. He says "I wanted to make a mix that involved the sounds I've enjoyed in records since I started out; they're also the elements that have influenced my own sound".
The tracklisting and programming is flawless, with Alex injecting forgotten classics into the mix from legendary producers like BASIC CHANNEL, RHYTHM & SOUND, JUAN ATKINS, MODEL 500 and ROBERT HOOD alongside modern electronic pioneers including CLARO INTELECTO, THOMAS BRINKMANN and TROY PIERCE.
From the atmospheric opening paves the way for a subterranean excursion through dub techno and writhing, skeletal rhythms. Alex contributes three twisted slices of rattling funk, including an exclusive QUIXOTE track. > IDJ MAGAZINE 'Player of the Year'
