For the first release on Irish Dj Jamie Behan's new techno label Bastardo Electrico, it is only fitting that it should come from legendary Dublin Dj Sunil Sharpe. From small techno sweatboxes to festival arenas, from Tresor in Germany to the U-Club in Slovakia, and back to Ireland, Sunil's formidable skills behind the decks has amazed crowds across Europe. This release is a snapshot of Sunil's uncompromising sonic assaults.

Opening with "Mestyerhed", the tone is set by fizzling noise and frantic vocal snips that pave the way for a mixture of mind bending lead sounds, making this a truly unique dancefloor killer. UK techno legend Paul Mac (Stimulus, C-Side, Theory etc.) combines contemporary techno, acid, and breakbeats to his bass wobbling "Mestyerhed" remix, with an uplifting breakdown that will surely see some serious big room rotation. "Mukis" goes a dark bunker techno route, with sirens and fierce squawking noises offsetting a deep and sinister lead synth, while "My Lovely Wax Jacket" displays a more jacking side to the ep. A cracking debut release that acts as a pre-cursor to upcoming eps featuring DJ Bone, Kevin Gorman, Glenn Keohane & Mike McCoy and the label owner Jamie Behan.

The ethos of this label is a reaction against the tendency to pigeon-hole music into increasingly finite sub-genres. It will show that you can have a continuity of sound, attitude, and atmosphere between diverse releases.
