"..6000 piedi sopra il mare. Molto più in alto di tutte le faccende umane." [1881]
Perception of time is a variable that transcends any state known to us (or presumed). Dragged by a force majeure, the Dionysian spirit is a life force and chaos of becoming. The Apollonian spirit is fleeing from the unpredictability of events. The eternal return is a trap which is subjected to static human destiny.
WR contunues its vinyl series with the mini-album from Mas Teeveh (Micro.fon, Nachtstrom Schallplatten), the one of the big heads of modern Italian techno. After a year of silence he's back with the milestone EP - Allegoria Del Tempo.
There are 2 great original tracks on the A-side: the dark hypnotic uplifter Circolo Perpetuo and the true euphoric rave anthem Spirito Dionisiaco. On B-side such techno veterans as Takaaki Itoh (Wols, Planet Rhythm) and Brendon Moeller a.k.a. Echologist (Prologue, Electric Deluxe) present their visions of the tracks. Takaaki Itoh remix with its deep slow development at the culmination becomes a true psychedelic techno burner. Brendon Moeller made it with double power - on 2 remixes: industrialized break techno monster as Echologist Drone Mix and the digital-only bonus - Echologist Dub, proper stomping DJ tool. The title track, ambient masterpiece from Mas himself is finishing this outstanding EP.

Dark and foreboding to say the least. Complex, hypnotic structures and well produced design of elements keep drawing you in with every track. Very cool release. Testbeeld
