Popis - X:
7 brand new XP8 tracks...mastered by Kolja Trelle...with guest vocals by STEWART WHO? and remixes of 3 classic XP8 hits by AESTHETIC PERFECTION, AUTODAFEH and TOM NAPACK! Two years since the experimentation of their last full-length album "Drop The Mask", XP8 are back - back to doing what they do best: a back-to-basics assault aimed squarely at the dancefloor. Ten years old this year, the Italian duo sign off their first decade by delivering what both fans and DJs have long demanded - a no-frills return to the classic XP8-style futurepop epitomised by the 2008 album "The Art Of Revenge". Yet this is no step back - rather, it is a very deliberate and superbly-crafted return to familiar musical territory. Where "Drop The Mask" pulled in different directions, "X - A Decade Of Decadence" exhibits a singularity of purpose: to drive the listener onto the dancefloor. From the bass-heavy beats of "The Wound That Won?t Heal" to the social commentary of "Burning Down" (inspired by the recent rioting spreading across Europe) "X" delivers hit after palpable hit - expertly mastered by the hand of Kolja Trelle of SOMAN. The call of the rhythm has a new vigour, the production a new polish, and the vocals of frontman Marko Resurreccion a new power and confidence - yet retaining that distinctive plaintive quality that recalls a young Robert Smith (were The Cure to make dance music). This is futurepop at its finest - surely the catchiest and most accessible work XP8 has produced to date. And as if to underline these new-found commercial credentials, "X" also finds XP8 reunited with STEWART WHO? - the instantly-recognisable voice of WAYNE G?s platinum-selling club-classic "Twisted" - for the killer cut "Trip", following on from his live collaboration on XP8?s "Twisted" cover which was one of the highlights of the Resistanz festival earlier this year.
