DKMNTL 018EP
|
Mephisto Frequency Oscillator (MFO) is a dynamic production duo made up of Italians Rio Padice and Massimo Di Lena. Here they release their first in a two-part EP series, Future City Traffic, on Dekmantel. Across three tracks they lay out some fine space-funk and dirty deep house. "Anti Social Plan" is riddled with a scuzzy Detroit soul. "Slow Run in Our Dreams" has hurried, rough-sounding drums down-low and odd, awkward but soulful piano patterns played out up top. Blurts of analog bass add weight, and breathy vocal sounds make things seem all the more organic. "Crisis Zone" is raw as you like with super-sharp hi-hats.

DKMNTL 019EP
|
Part 2 of 2 from MFO on the Dekmantel label. Italian duo Rio Padice and Massimo Di Lena, together known as Mephisto Frequency Oscillator (MFO) now serve up part two of the Future City Traffic EP. Across four new tracks they continue to explore grainy, dirty house that is variously soulful, funky or cosmic in nature. "Motor" is the funkiest of all the cuts, with well-defined drums keeping a fine disco groove locked down. "Oman Jazz" pairs malfunctioning percussion and out of control synths. "Design the Future" is another meaty track, and "Arctic Lodge" features a heavyweight kick drum, paranoid synth sounds and jumbled percussion.
