Quotes for Nattdett (Hands in the Dark, 2024)

The New Noise (IT): “A record composed with undeniable artistry.”

Quotes for “5HT2” (Syncopathic Recordings)
Jack Chuter: “All throughout, 5HT2 channels dubstep’s quintessential stagger into an echo-drenched reminiscence of weirder 90s electronic music, mangling multiple nostalgias into the compositional inclinations of the present, scrambling all attempts to place it anywhere but here and now”
Silence And Sound: “5HT2 links genres with efficacy, making atmospheres flutter on a razor-sharp production.”
Quotes for “Mycorrhiza” (OOH-SOUNDS)
Boomkat: “Taeggi focussed his extra energies supplied by the mischievous mushie gods to twist the knobs and faders of Willem Twee’s well stocked studio into a rhizomatic, networked conversation between the machines that describes the sparking electricity inside his bean with a natural, if abstract, logic”
Joe Muggs/Best Electronic Music on Bandcamp: “Startlingly detailed Dutch abstractions”[…]” There’s a regularity to the patterns in this music, and a clear love for fizzing synth textures, gamelan-like rhythms, and hints of classic ’90s electronica that makes it eminently listenable.”

Quotes for “Zimnì Král” (SM-LL)
Boomkat : “This demonstration still feels uniquely fresh, crisp and spacious, sloshing in myriad syncopated permutations with a focussed, entrancing intricacy that one doesn’t hear every day.”

Gonzo Circus (printed) : “Hij plaatst ze op een speelvlak, zoals een choreograaf dat met zijn dansers zou doen, en brengt ze vervolgens in beweging”.

Quotes for “Miccaotli” (Opal Tapes)

Quotes for “Mama Matrix Most Mysterious” (Type)
 Boomkat : “By-passing trends in favour of something purer, Taeggi has just pulled out a vital addition to this year’s wave of modular experiments, finding a killer balance of percussive gratification and spaced-out headiness.”
Norman Records : “Rather than synth odysseys, he’s kept Mama Matrix Most Mysterious minimal and strictly rhythmic, making for a simmering brew of terse clicks and timbres. Sweet.”
