Rodion
Generator
8/10
Rodion, aka Italian producer Edoardo Cianfanelli, deserves wider recognition.
His 2007 debut album 'Romantic Jet Set' was an exquisite Italo-disco update, and he's released some great singles since. 'Generator' is the first material from his new live band project but, as the electro throb of opener 'Phobos Berl' makes clear, there aren't any stumbling indie-dance baby-steps.
Loose comparisons might place him somewhere between pre-'Get Lucky' Daft Punk and the poppy ease of Röyksopp, but Rodion is his own man, dipping into psy-trance ('Bosphorus Hippies'), shimmering cosmic disco ('Gamma') and breathless pop-funk ('Bococa Hills'), all while maintaining a red-blooded pulse.
