Zone Records welcome a real legend in the form of Cardopusher for their next EP, a five track affair that is arresting from the off.
Venezuelan born Cardopusher is now based in Barcelona and co-founded the Classicworks label. His diverse and experimental sound takes him from techno to electro to acid to rave to house, all with his own singular perspective. Always fusing ideas with great skill on labels like Super Rhythm Trax, Zodiac 44 and BNR, he now comes correct for Zone.
Kicking things off is the raw and raucous 'Nothing Left to Believe In.' It is a macho tune with fractured vocals, wild synths and slap funk drums all sounding industrial and tortured. Then comes 'Blast Cut', a more dynamic and stripped back electro groove with a corrugated bassline and metallic synth stabs all sounding informed by the past but looking to a distant future.
