BAO 042EP
|
New debut on Be As One from Italy's Alex Picone, who has conquered critics and fans, both for the quality of his tight productions and the lush sounds of his DJ sets. "Another Time" opens the EP with a 909 classic sound and a hypnotic melody that gently sets the mood for the following "It Takes Two," which lifts up the tone and gets the groove rolling. "Fake Room" closes the EP, injecting uplifting techno energy for the finale.

CADENZA 061EP
|
Alex Picone's first record under his real name is also his first release on Cadenza and is his most successful so far. The uplifting groove of "Inside Out" pushes the limits of contemporary house music, yet the heart of the track is the relentless bass line. With "Lost In Burning Man," Picone fuses an old school electro groove into his house beats. With the rotary bass line and the playful jew's harp on "Mandarin," the EP ends on a comical note.

CADENZA 027EP
|
Alex Picone is based in Padova, Italy, and has previously recorded for Tenax and Mixworks. "Furby" has a warm, spongy sub-bass cushion and some carefree melodic flourishes. Plenty of good-natured bleeps keep the playful vibe flying high, built around a skeleton of polished steel and precision mechanics. "Floppy" is a simple track on the surface, but there's moody clarinets bubbling up and all manner of carefully-tuned percussion. Don't be surprised to find your mind wandering while your body's in motion.
