{"product_id":"petit-cochon","title":"Petit Cochon","description":"Cleveland-based musician James Donadio has drawn much attention within the dance scene under his Prostitutes guise, both for his industrious and noisy-sounding techno and his more experimental efforts. His third full-length, Petit Cochon, is a combination of the two, combining repetitive and interchanging drum machine patterns with noisy static and organic found sounds, shying away from the traditional techno found on the two-part Truncheon Cadence and moving back to his familiar-sounding output of releases such as 2013's Crushed Interior. On paper, the album looks like it is there to be offensive -- the Prostitutes name as well as Donadio being grouped with heavier artists like Shifted suggests this -- but it's quite the opposite. It's dark in places, but never unnerving or that intrusive, and has vacant, reverberating effects as well as atmospheric layers that are both well-crafted and automated. Each track has its own individuality, shifting the sonic landscapes seamlessly without veering that far away from one another. \"Build Your Kits\" offers a club-based 4\/4 kick, while \"The Bluffer's Corporation\" sounds like it could be a collaboration between the Boredoms and Actress. The record's best moment might be the last track, \"Four Basic Forces,\" with its mesmerizing train-like rhythm, synth splutters, and a kick drum that progressively builds and then fades in and out, only to unexpectedly be brought crashing back in at the end. The album is a fresh and fascinating take on the destructive side of dance music and sits alongside some of the darker techno releases from Donadio's contemporaries. ~ James Pearce","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41908657717413,"sku":"5050580612013","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/10a8ba4ba63854930193d3d789fc0408.jpg?v=1781167461","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-de\/products\/petit-cochon","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
