]dD[ 21 | 214 - Prescriptions Don't Plug Into Anything

http://www.digital-distortions.co.uk...ons-Dont-P.jpg

To sit at a table set with the sounds of 214 is to be served Hungry-man portions of honey-buttered electro beats, side dishes of synth-line treats, and dollops of IDM-get-down. Like most musicians, Chris Romans path is rooted in a veritable melting pot of sounds. Some of the influences are obvious, others not so much so. His Puerto Rican birthright and Miami upbringing ring apparent when he's pumping out sci-fi roller disco sounds, but when his vibe turns to the cold dark comfort of Detroit-esque minimal mind funk, it would seem this man forgets from whence he came. It's a memory lapse that sounds like a lapdance in the side room of a space ship. More importantly, it's a memory lapse that works. It's not so much a lapse then as a love of diversity, a creative finesse with a variety of good tastes. 214 effortlessly blends lush Latin roots with robo-transformer trips, always maintaining a skillful balance between the nasty, the not-right, the cold, hard, and just-right -- all at the same time. He's got plenty of tricks up his proverbial record sleeve nd he's been pulling them out for years now.

Here we have 3 straight up electro cuts from one of the under minded masters of the scene along with a stunning slick Finlow esq remix by new boy Señor Frio...Enjoy...
