August: 8 electro releases you need to hear this month
New tunes from Cardopusher, Costello, Solid Blake and more
Costello 'Dotcom' (Bad Life)
French upstart Costello returns to Bad Life Records after a string of releases on esteemed electro-facing imprints such as Boysnoize, Fool’s Gold, Bad Life, Dim Mak, Boxon, Southern Fried and Lektroluv. Brought up on a strict diet of house and techno in his native Bordeaux, Costello’s productions embalm a decade of electronic culture but with his own low-key twist. His latest release, ‘Dotcom’, features hazy soundscapes wrapped around brittle kicks and cyborgian leads. With support from Danny Daze, Laurent Garnier and Maceo Plex already in the bag, you’re going to be hearing this banger a lot in the coming weeks and months.
