Rolando Simmons
Pseudo-Muso
About this item
It's been more than ten years since Rolando debuted with his sought after self-titled EP on 030303 and it is thrilling to see the producer - who has always managed to remain a sort of best kept secret, admired only by the heads - still surf those high waves of creativity. "Lifephorce" is bound to be an instant classic, leaving instant marks on the listener's soul with unsettling yet mesmerising chord changes, a heavy throbbing bassline and generally a deep, introspective outlook on the dancefloor. "Sterilize The Club" brings back memories of face masks (thank you Rolando), but soundwise this is face to the ground stomping braindance material. Just as driving but more melancholic are "Dot Zoner" and "Exit Your Own Realm". Classic Rolando Simmons, this one. If you know you know...
STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: High voltage, super stylish dance music here from a producer's producer many of us are hoping remains under-the-radar. Everyone of Rolano Simmons' tracks is a bit of a secret weapon if you're in the habit of playing cutting edge electronic music to aircraft hangers full of willing participants. I could imagine this EP receiving regular spins by DJs like Sven Vath, Villalobos, Willow, Craig Richards and Jane Fitz - yes it's that good!
