Cardopusher - Bad Face / Lonesome Town

Recording info

Offroad released a nice mix of tunes in 2008, from the thick-necked roughness of DZ and High Deaf on OFF001 to the slick bassline pressure of OFF003. To kick things off properly in 2009, theyve signed up a killer plate from Venezuelan dancefloor assassin Cardopusher who has been ripping up clubs and airwaves worldwide with releases on Lodubs, Redvolume and Terminal Dusk. Bad Face on the A side is a techy ripper, where the soothing pads and alien chit-chat are just the calm before the storm a thundering drop of non-stop subs mixed with ruff klaxon synths that switch and mutate before giving way to a blissed-out midsection pepperedwith cheeky drumwork and lush sonic textures. Lonesome Town takes things even dirtier, with squirming electro synthlines filtered hard over skipping beats, as Cardo throws vintage stabs and a seriously catchy bleep riff into the mix.
