Fireground – Recreation

Munich's cult favourite Ilian Tape brings some high-energy techno euphoria here from Fireground. Opener 'Recreation' is bristling synths and rattling percussion over closely stacked drums. 'Spice Up' keeps the same vibe but this time with brighter, more tranced-tinged chords which will get smiles on faces and hands in the air. 'Bamboo' is another intense wall of sound and 'Noise Of Light' then brings a more stripped-back side with funky drum programming and paranoid, searching synths up top. What a trip as ever from this innovative crew.
