FIGURE X012EP
|
Following up her 2018 EP Which One Of Us Is Me on Figure (FIGURE 093EP, 2018), Lady Starlight once again tames her hardware for some wild, live and direct cuts. These four tracks of unprocessed, unadulterated machine techno are some of the freshest analog output available these days, with acidic undertones tinging the record in a slightly old school flavor. Starlight still leads way in a highly condensed and to the point way of producing, where simplicity rules and basic elements carry all the tension necessary. Clever arrangement and little filter tweaks are all that's needed for maximum rave energy.

SA 030EP
|
Lady Starlight's expert control of sound extremes colors each of the EP's four hard-hitting and authoritative techno tracks. It begins with the relentless cycling beat and echoing synth stabs of "E12", the energy of a peak rave hour never far away. "E3.2" is another take on similar themes but with progressively more hypnotic simplicity and beneficial pressure. "E2.2" is built on a less rough-edged, shinier set of bouncing and panning synth hits. Lady Starlight unleashes full-spectrum audio warfare with "F8", a seamless interlocking of industrial clang and 16th-note percussion hits with the basic elements used for the previous three tracks.
