Let's figure the musical fusion between Juan Atkins and Kraftwerk and you'll have a little preview of Douglas Patterson's sound. With "Revolution EP", Detroit located producer signs its fifth 12'' release and rewards us with as much tracks to turn over the dancefloors. A-side starts with an impressive dark and futuristic "Lost Transmissions" remix (equally available in its original version on the flip) by none the less than Bass Junkie in which Battle Trax mastermind accentuates the sci-fi frequencies. In a Germanic vein, "The Autobots" delivers a striking bass hammering under robotic vocoder and superimposed vintage strings. An amazing tune to compare with classic Karl Bartos rework of Afrika Bambaataa's "Planet Rock"! "Electrophobia" and "Dream.Time.Space" on the reverse re-use in a Aux 88 spirit components that our US artist introduced in its previous "AB1K EP": feverish 808, accelerated rhythm and ultra funky lyrics. At last, downtempo "Program Time" will refer directly to "Alleys Of Your Mind" from legendary Cybrotron. No need to express the emergency to get this little jewel as soon as it is out.
