This is the second full-length release from Vienna's Elektro Guzzi, who play their brand of techno 100% live: no laptops, no loops, no sequences. Their unparalleled live success has made them a leader in the field at Sónar, Mutek, Berghain, Fabric, Amsterdam Dance Event, Time Warp, etc. Elektro Guzzi had the biggest head-start on the 2010 circuit, and it has always been considered a main advantage of having a band on stage: you can see and feel what you hear, and in techno this is only true for Elektro Guzzi. What sounded incredible on their debut album is a revelation live. They have made most laptop acts sound rather dull, and since then, they have been in fast-forward evolution mode. Live P.A. captures the latest state of Elektro Guzzi's incredible live sound, recorded in London with the outstanding mixing capabilities of Brendon "Octave" Harding, the trusted engineer of dub legend Lee "Scratch" Perry. The set, originally recorded for Resident Advisor, captures Elektro Guzzi's raw live side, turning out dark grooves with an almost indie edge -- probably their most appealing material to date. The CD version has been newly mixed by their producer Patrick Pulsinger (Hercules & Love Affair) and is available in full resolution for the very first time.
