NANCY Live - The Scapegoat EP

Alan Fitzpatrick’s label welcomes a new talent, NANCY Live, to the fold – and this fine two-tracker showcases her tough techno credentials. The title track is a full-on warehouse banger, with screeching rave sirens underpinned by pummelling kick drums and relentless bursts of percussion – it comes across like a contemporary update on 90s Frankfurt Trax. Despite its name, “Gizeh Trance” is as far as possible from day-glo friendly sounds: resounding to a searing acid line that keeps on building, it’s a tripped out but impactful affair. Both of these tracks shine a light on this emerging Irish artist’s production skills.
