Dissidaence - Episode 2

Description

After the release of DISSIDAENCE Episode 1, warmly welcomed by both critics and the public, Vitalic delivers on his promises and offers us a sequel that is more techno and darker than the first installment, marked by a cold, minimalist industrial aesthetic. A raw composition and production that inevitably recall the post-cold wave heritage—always embedded in the producer's DNA—and now claimed more than ever.DISSIDAENCE Episode 2 opens with "Sirens," a dangerous, sweaty electronic tornado. Then "Dancing in the Street," "The Void," and "Light is a Train" take their place, perfect concentrates of stripped-down, alarming, mechanical, and cold techno. Faced with this hostility, there are lovely moments of respite and poetry with "Marching," "Friends & Foes," and "Winter is coming," giving way to melody and melancholy.A two-headed project that Vitalic has mastered, between relentless energy and a strange cosmic journey.
