Moonshard by Esoteric Circle
Brothers Julien & Raphael Piacentino aka Esoteric Circle, have been making waves with a run of recent productions on labels including Oddity and Eleatics. With a talent and touch for spine-tingling compositions, the French duo have worked their way into the sets, and shared the stages, with some of the finest purveyors of melodic house and techno of today.
Making their debut on Joris Voorn's Spectrum imprint, the brothers serve up a stunning double slice of cosmic finery in 'Moonshard' and 'Oblivion'.
The title track with its cascading synths, sweeping strings and cavernous chords creates a majestic dancefloor moment, while 'Oblivion', as its name suggests, treads a darker path. Tracer-like snares fire, bassline growls, and crater kicks drop from the heavens. All wrapped in an impressively melodic melancholy.
