Chip Tronic –
This awesome record by Mickey Nox contains at least two tracks which have become an essential part of my set and will for sure often be played. In a nutshelll, these tunes both tell a story, are hard but also have a smart groove and above all they transfer energy and it is fun to listen to them. I focus on my 2 favourite tunes here:
RIOT Shield:
I remember listening to the first track “RIOT Shield” somewhen in July 2019 when Mike showed it to us in the RIOT Radio Record Group. Screaming lead synths meet stomping rhythms.
Pictures of a mech on a battlefield with a dark sky full of steam and the flashlights of huge guns came into my mind. References to old tracks from a french techno group could be mentioned ( at that time in 1996). Nox did his “Homework” very well and created a “RIOT Shield” for the Battlefield.
VICTIMS & SCARS:
A rhythm to find them to catch them and to bind them to the dancefloor. The magic rhythm on this tune contains a super hellish groove you cannot escape. From the speakers into the brain this tune makes the mind almost go insane. Dense Percussions, a simple quirky lead melody and unexpected moments make this track an instant classic.
Listen yourself and drop some madness on the floor! Top!
