Def Leppard
By: Donny Karson
Catalogue no: ASTOR004
Releasedate: 2009-04-06
Tracklist:
- Pre, Erle
- Def Leppard
"Audio experimentation" and "a good song" aren't always terms you hear side by side. Sometimes the planets align and you get lucky - Def Leppard is such a moment.
Both tracks on this release are based on a dark industrial vibe: deep bass, scary distortions and metallic samples a'la Berghain. However Donny has a feel for melodies, and adds a playfullness reminiscent of chiptunes, allthough the sounds are richer and carefully edited by a true perfectionist. There are also obvious elements of electro in Pre, Erle which adds portions of the same kind of Justice-type energy bound to bring fists in the air. The title track on the other hand, has more airy feel to it, which brings about a paradoxical summer-like sentiment.
Astor Bell's fourth release makes no sense when put in words. But when played loud it does! |
