Established but a few months ago, NOiR FIDELITY is an emerging record label clearly intent on showing they mean business from the off, with their latest release, the emphatic Shuriken Kuts, very much indicative of the fact. Helmed by Errikos Stamatakis, the label boasts an agenda that leans toward upfront, banging techno, with no less than 8 tracks making up this latest V/A release.
The release get off to a flyer courtesy of Michailoâs âI Want To Sayâ. A truly unrelenting prospect, it lets us know from the get-go that weâre all set for a barmy rollercoaster of a ride. A fierce and determined-sounding track, this one – much like the majority of the release – really does go hard in search of its kicks. Monica Mâs âDonât You Ever Go Homeâ is a clever DJ tool that starts off on a relatively innocuous manner before it unfurls into something entirely different. Kobzevâs moody sounding âDelusion Factorâ has peak-time Berghain written all over it, before Berlin live act Der Kosmonaut enters the fray courtesy of âSirenâ, a white-noise riddled track of truly epic proportions.
The second half of the release kicks off with Null Ohmâs â313â, a high BPM track thatâs best suited to braver DJs. Veteran producer Elbee Bad is arguably the releaseâs star turn, and he doesnât let the side down courtesy of his contribution, the magnificent âTwangingâ. A deep and dexterous production, itâs polished tones and clever acid lines mark it out as a real cut of distinction. The MentΩr then goes all cinematic on his track, âPaganâ, before matters come to a halt thanks to the culminating track, Erico Falconeâs âBPDâ. By a distance the recordâs most restrained track, itâs an enjoyable foil to a release thatâs never lacking in up-tempo vibes.
