Next up on Stil vor Talent is on-the-rise producer Final Request with his debut solo EP for us, 'My World'. Hot on the heels of his debut SvT transmission in collaboration with Fur Coat a few months ago, Final Request strikes again with a pair of sci-fi-indebted floor wreckers, all about turning brains and bodies upside down. Drawing in the visionary dystopian vision of 90s-to-00s flicks, which he says is just nearing completion IRL, this new audio excursion from the up-and-comer ticks all the boxes of an alien-engineered monster.
A blistering piece of EBM weaponry all set for a massive warehouse rumble, the lead track delivers a proper magnetic shockwave of hi-NRG bass, brooding robotics, and Prophet 6-fuelled synthesis, all synths blazing and frantic sines flashing. Casting his melodic alphabet in molten metal and boiling up circuit chatter, FR treats us to a nasty maelstrom of extraterrestrial mind-hack and post-Italo fragmentation. Radioactive to the full,
'Iridium' blazes a path of destruction with its finely engineered mix of hi-intensity seesaw and cataclysmic menace, catapulting its listener amidst a torrential outpouring of maxed-out arps and fiery drum programming. Nuclear punch activated.
Since being founded in 2005, Stil vor Talent has continuously striven to evolve, to enable and to further countless artistic careers. Sascha Braemer, Reinier Zonneveld, KlangKuenstler, Moonwalk, Teenage Mutants, HVOB are just a few of many names that inextricably link to Oliver Koletzki’s Berlin-based label.
