“Electronic music, as we know it, is in full evolution. More and more, we discover artists who combine the broad outline of Berlin School to couple them on rhythms or modulations which approach soft techno.
Dorian’s 2nd opus is a revelation in this new crenel. It’s tinted of an atmosphere to the strange amplitudes that begin Industrial Love. A penetrating wind, dark and worrying, floats on the top of Alternative World, where strange gutturals sonorities, punctuate a dark firmament.
Always also dark, Dark Tunnel reflects its title on section cups pulsations. However, the melody is beautiful and floats in an industrial sidereal world with steel modulations. I like the sphere of influences of synth which undulates, such a snake ready to bite. But this dark atmosphere is quickly diluted with Cold Win.
A beautiful soft techno title with a beautiful melodious set of themes, at the same time jazzy and lounge, a little in the Jean Michel Jarre style, but who makes a too sharp cut after a very intriguing start.
It is with Moving Lights that we note more the fusion of the 2 kinds. If the entry is a true Berlin School, with its intro sequenced loops on a background of echo and a beautiful hopping bass line, the rhythm explodes around the 3rd minute mark, on a technoпde tempo with tschitt tschitt cymbals on one synth with broad loops and superb sinuous solos. A very electronic title with analog savour, to modulated tempos and a beautiful atmospheric passage stuff of cosmic sound effects.
Emerals Lake is the most ambient title on Industrial Love. Soft synth with fluty sonority extends in a halieutic atmosphere where astral choirs are moulded with synthetic modulations.
Past Life is a suave title, lancinating and full of sensuality. The percussions are flabby on a languorous synth with very suggestive nuances on modulations. A title which has a sonority equivalent to Cold Win. Either a very slow soft techno, but of an arousing slowness, with superb percussions that enter in our skin.
Far Away is in the same mould, though less sensual, but the solos are superb just like the percussions. Always under the charm of Past Life, Place of Dream intrigues with its droning intro where a female-intonated voice forges an ethnic incantation, light percussions staccato passage awake a rhythm which becomes hammering on one clannish synth.
Place of Dream is an incredible title with solids percussions and strange synth that exploits ethnical voices. A trick that I had never heard before and which makes a great effect. Half way between techno and the electronics acid of Delirium, Place of Dream has a wild tempo on orchestral choirs and synths. It is the kind of title which makes say 'WoW!'. Very impressive.
Industrial Love closes this 2nd Dorian effort, with a magnetic and dusty intro where the keys burst in a diagram of reverberations, diffusing their waves in multi circles. The rhythm ignites on a languorous tempo, with the fine metal scratches which flirt with strange voices of industrial sirens. A title with the moderate tempos and misty synth, which wrap a heteroclite universe that Dorian seems to control with wonder.
Industrial Love is a collection of 9 titles to various orientations which concentrate on a crossing between Berlin School and the soft techno. There are strokes of geniuses a little everywhere which let foresee an extremely promising future for Dorian Przystalski. A great title, better and more daring than it’s first opus, Antimatter.”
