This new release of Athens-based imprint is Scorpio's debut album. This Greek producer who already appeared on previous Ntrop Recordings EPs brings here 13 tracks evolving between electro techno and electro / breakbeat. The atmospheres are particularly dark and the used sounds often remember famous computer-sounds and 80's old synths. A perfect sound combination with sometimes strong power. Maybe some tracks would have been better if the song construction was less repetitive. Nevertheless there is originality and quality in various titles, especially in "desert storm", "seems update", "across the lake", "environment rmx", "eternity" & "DFT" and in the beautiful "Elektra's eyes" & "walk alone". Keep an eye on this artist! Check audio samples on Ntrop web site !
