Ok, so I am still doing the CDR listening list thing, and still want to do the other planned ones as well (such as the Tsundere Violence one). Those ended up on hold due to just getting busy with other things, then forgetting about it. I got interest in doing these listening list log things again though, so why not do one for the net-label scene legend, Vziel Projet (aka a billion other names). These posts might not be as in-depth as my other posts, or maybe they will be. I also will probably have these be more "rapid fire" due to how many short releases they have.
Sacred Ad from their Genetic Trance alias is what I would consider one of their classic releases. An EP with four straight to the point techno bangers that really makes one get into the groove and want to dance. The opening track Books of Samuel transforms cheap sound computer clicking sound effects into a hard techno tune with a nice repetitive lead that gets a variety of counter-melodies and rhythms applied through the track. The second track, Eternal Guest, has to be one of my faves, I love the mix of the four-on-the-floor kicks with the more unusual rhythms they're known for, this track really is a groove, makes me want to dance. The third track Exult, combined elements of dark techno with spastic footwork, occasionally falling into broken drum'n'bass rhythms reminiscent of Milanese's more experimental works; its somehow slow and frenetic simultaneously. The EP ends with Crude Herb, another stomper of a techno tune similar to track two, but the edition of really nice acid lines.
