Review:

 

Intra Muros is the first compilation & release from Sub Machine (a french

parisian label dedicated to progressive).

 

It got a nice singular covert art.

 

There are 9 tracks which comes from France for the major part

tetraktys,Kent,Cosmoquad (aka Luna Spice),Silicon Sound & Missing Time.

Also 2 tracks from portugese producers can be found here (Suria vs Dj

Franco,Tone Factory).

 

Tetraktys delivers 2 tracks : ?Ptah? & ?Mechanical Unit?. These 2 ones are good

with his usual worked sounds.

For example, the killer Mechanical Unit uses the sample of modem?s chant (you

know when this machine is dialing to connect you on internet), very weird at

first but very effective .

 

The Kent & Cosmoquad stuffs are honests but not my favorites.

 

In Civil Engineering from Missing Time there?s something reminding me Intact

Instint ?Chigago Coin?s Cinema?.

 

Then comes the first portugese track by Suria vs Dj Franco ?Template?. I know

that Trance is quite pretty big there, but i?ve never heard stuff from this

country and i must admit i?m not dissapointed at all.

 

Missing Time appears a second time but in a remix version of Excess End by

Walhalla. This version amazes me much than the original which wasn?t bad . A

beautifull lifting which contributes to amplify the richness of this track.

 

Next one is ?Mechanil Unit? and i already speak about it above.

My good impress on portugese production is confirmed with the second track from

Tone Factory ? Trompe L??il? wich ends up nicely Intra Muros.

 

Hightlights :8,5

Other good stuffs :7,9,6.

 

Mark :7,5/10
