MIS HERMANOS RUMANOS PART 2 EP by FASTER / NU ZAU / ALEX FONT

Alex Font and his Acme label continue to champion the sound of Romanian electronic music with this second installment of Mis Hermanos Rumanos, following the excellent first turn with Sepp. Faster steps up first with the driving, chunky tech house sound of "Channel 1.0", threading subtle but snarling synth shapes through the straight-up drums with poise. Font gets deeper on "Cuentame Cosas Tuyas", using a whole lot of subby bass and pinging other crisp tones over the top of the mix. Nu Zau meanwhile keeps things decidedly hypnotic on the immersive "Return", and then Font finishes the EP off with the more fragmented sounds of "Frentes Abiertos".
