Cornelius Doctor 'Myths Of Adulthood' (Hard Fist)
France’s Cornelius Doctor presents the first release from his newly minted Hard Fist imprint — and it’s one of the most impressive debuts we’ve come across this year. ‘Kutter’s Transmissions’ is all about the stodgy drums and a monstrous lead synth. ‘20 Something’ is equally enthralling as the Doctor blends subtle breakbeats with throwback vocals and rave atmospherics for a proper club workout. ‘Sparkling Plasma’ effortlessly flips between heavy tribal rhythms and chanting vocals before transforming into a chuggy cut of acid, while ‘Animal Sexual Diary’ utilises a disco-tinged groove to close an assured debut.
