Romina Cohn / Naiborg – Acid Call + Acid Call Rmx (EP – Space Factory)
Genre/Influences: Acid, Techno, IDM, EBM.
Format: Digital.
Background/Info: This work resulted from the collaborative efforts between Romina Cohn (Argentina) and Naiborg (a project which also worked together with DJ Hell). These are two separate releases; first there was the EP “Acid Call” featuring four songs and next the EP “Acid Call Rmx” featuring five remixes.
Content: The original work sounds like modern Technoid-Acid music; pretty underground driven with minimalistic sound treatments and touching ground with IDM and even EBM. The sterile timbre of voice of Romina Cohn reminds me of 80s Electro-Wave projects and has this magical touch. Remixes have been accomplished by Julien Mercier, Back To The Wave, Jauzas The Shining and Final Grll (2 remixes).
+ + + : I really love the minimalism of the original “Acid Call”-songs bringing different influences together; definitely acid and techno-like but also IDM and Electro-Wave. The vocals are adding a true extra to the production and makes it accessible for a wider audience. This music is going to make you dance to trance.
– – – : The remixes are cool and adding diversity compared to the original edits but without the similar acid magic.
Conclusion: Great, modern, Acid-Techno vibes with an 80s touch on top.
Best songs: “Dance To Forget U”, “Your Soul”, “Kiss Me I Want To Make Love” + “Kiss Me I Want To Make Love – Back From The Wave Remix”.
Rate: 8.
