For its seventh release, Giant & Dwarf welcomes new signatures coming from all over Europe. On A-side, UK artist Paul Mac, partner of well known Ben Sims and Mark Williams, opens fire with furious "Outsider", a clubby hardgroove track built upon ethnic instruments like congas or bongos while German Crazy X-Ray associates with Hassan Hokstrom to deliver industrial and full of percussions "Running Beast". On the reverse, Greek artists from MZM Group prove with dancefloor "R U Listen To Me?" that vocals and techno can sometime combine perfectly. At last, Acidrain, featured on G&D 05 gives to Switzerland melancholic color with deep and bloody "Leaving Atmosphere". An efficient and stirring techno tribal 12''!
