Duran Duran Duran: Supernatural Beast City
Ed Flis resurfaces with his most genuinely rave-friendly work to date.
Supernatural Beast City is pretty far from the hard electro-techno he was doing for a while, and much closer to breakbeat hardcore revival. Dev/Null has long since made the transition from breakcore to retro-rave, and he appears on one of this album’s more club-ready cuts (“Just Feel It”). But there’s also some gorgeous atmospheric jungle here (“94.Rinse.out”) and some tricky dub-influenced breaks (“Ikaria”). Tracks like “Faceplant” have mega-choppy breaks but are remarkably easy to follow along and dance to. Truly masterful modern hardcore breaks.
