Something Hot by Lorenz Rhode

Following 2009's Motor Cortex EP(electro record of the month in Mixmag),Lorenz Rhode dives deeper into electrofunk territory this time.For the shamelessly synth-saturated title track he teams up with Berlin based singer Snax,who turns "Something Hot" into something even hotter."Like a Player" is a dazzling clash of sacral arpeggios,heavy beats and P-Funk licks.Another drum machine funk joint,"Drop the P!",features a strangely familiar bassline!"Telephone Helicopter Applause Gunshot" is a nice bonus that could only come from Dusseldorf(home of Kraftwerk).Hudson Mohawke and Aeroplane are fans!

Hailing from Düsseldorf, the German producer is already a striking hero in his hometown. After his first EP on Compost Records, he got signed on Shir Khan’s label Exploited where he delivered some delicious cuts like ‘Something Hot‘ (supported by A-Trak, Sinden, Aeroplane, Hudson Mohawke, Breakbot) and ‘Motor Cortex‘ (single of the month in Mixmag).
