For the past few years, Hilltown Disco has shone a spotlight on left of centre dance music, – and Zadkiel is the latest instalment on the label to put a focus on electro and beyond. The outer limit can be measured by The Spy’s “Blood Trail”, the kind of broken down industrial workout that one could imagine Intergalactic Gary spinning. The pounding break beats of NICOL’s “Lucid” represent a more dance-floor friendly take on this sound, while Drexciyan influences swim to the surface for the acid-soaked hyper-speed funk of Efemme’s “In A Pirahna-Filled River”. Not to be outdone by the overall tone is Sarmigetusa with the moody beats of “DOYOUKNOWME” and Lloyd Stellar, who conjures up the bleak horror film soundscape of “Through The Smog”.
