Various – 303rd Dimensions

432HERTZ BERLIN storms back a six-track dive into the rawer edges of acid, techno and electro. Where the debut release was hypnotic, this one is ferocious and every cut feels engineered for peak-time intensity and gritty underground spaces. Dan Piu’s ‘Cognitive Dissonance’ sets the tone with acid-soaked paranoia, while Rinaldo Makaj and Electric City unleash pounding warehouse weapons. On the flip, Gela, Mathii and Gianluca Pellerano stretch the acid tension into hypnotic, atmospheric and finely-tuned grooves dense with Berlin authenticity, analogue bite and uncompromising functionality. Serious sounds for serious DJs.
