Kirk Degiorgio - Isomer Shift EP

Isomer Shift EP by Kirk Degiorgio

4...according to our on Thu 24 Sep, 2009.

Kirk Degiorgio has another 12" out on B12. I was feeling a little disappointed at first but when 'Isomer Shift' gets going it ain't bad at all. It's a straight up four to the floor techno cut, the likes of which we've heard a zillion times before but it has a classy feel and will certainly be a functional tool in the clubs. It treads the dubby pads route with a smattering of Detroit/Kevin Saunderson style. It reminds me a wee bit of Dave Clarke's classic 'Red 2'. 'Isidara' is a slower jam again with a heavy dose of that Detroit flavour. Some cool sounds are introduced into the mix. The bassline actually reminds me a bit of Beltram's 'Energy Flash' for some reason. Both tracks on the flip are reminiscent of early Transmat stuff which is never a bad thing.

Kirk Degiorgio, the man behind Future Past and As One, continues to innovate with unique sounds and dance floor friendly beats. The Isomer Shift EP is an uncompromising set of progressive dance floor beats in the tradition of Craig/Saunderson and Beltram.

The four tracks are outstanding 21st century techno, an instant Degiorgio classic with typically syncopated dance beats, beautiful chords and rhythms that create memorizing and energetic soundscape.

On the A side, ‘Isomer Shift’ is a perfect example of Degorigo’s relentless rhythmical talents. Twisted beats, beautiful strings and chords combine to create a master work of futuristic funk. Isidora, the second track brings bigger and spacier atmospheres to a club fullfiled club beat.

The B side takes the future funk even deeper, great strings provide the backing for two tracks that see Degiorgio returning to his previous influences with rhythms and bass lines synonymous with Kirk’s much acclaimed earlier works.
