Focusing on low-slung IDM, acid, and atmospheric electro with nods to krautrock and ambient sounds, Steve Hyland's Attraktta project gets an extended outing on the Film label. Across eight beautifully produced tracks, Hyland - one of the founding members of AI Records and subsequently Concrete Plastic - explores vibrant synthesis and intricate drum programming, with the music arriving at a sweet spot between home listening material and club-ready workouts for more intelligent dancefloors. Eschewing straightforward synth sequences in favor of blissed-out, almost disharmonious sonics, Hyland transmits a curious psychedelia on Echo Principle, his debut LP. Sounds pitch and warp organically, buoyed up by saturated low-end and punchy drum machine percussion. There remains a decidedly accomplished precision to the work, though - with the music bearing all the hallmarks of an artist of some considerable experience - testament to the British producer and label head's 19 years working in the industry. A colorful, exquisitely composed LP that riffs on a timeless production aesthetic with considerable style, Echo Principle is a fantastic entry into the Film discography. 140 gram vinyl; Matte UV varnish; Includes download code with bonus track.
