REVIEW: REPTANT - RETURN TO PLANET X'TRAPOLIS

Reptant, the producer also known as Lou Karsh, is one of the greatest representatives of the modern electro sound. His style encompasses all aspects of the electro resurgence: tracks built with slim beats and a feeling of spaciousness, hard-hitting bass lines, and a love of melody - a sensibility shared by many of his fellow Australians. Now he debuts with the LP: Return to Planet X'trapolis [LKR RECORDS], after spending 5 years shaping and expanding his sound.

His intro is pure retrofuturism to us, and immediately gives way to an album that is a strong hit of electro broken and devoured by acid. It is the yin and yang on a disk. All these themes converge to combine in an album as experimental as it is intense and addictive, which takes over oneself like a sweet poison.

Each track resonates from the depths, and manages to enter a unique and very personal sonic cosmos, covering a wide range of sound textures that will make our speakers roar.

We don't know what the future holds, but we do know that this album is a testimony to a troubled and uncertain present, which will remain in our memory forever. Thanks for this Return to Planet X'trapolis, Reptant!
