Mr. Lio is releasing a impressive compilation on Dubfire’s SCI+TEC label. Tunes from the past, present and the future very well mixed together.
Its pure techno but he puts a soul to it, and it makes it more joyful.
And here is a little taste of the future (part2)
SCI+TEC – Past, Present, Future – Vol. 2 Mixed by Carlo Lio Part 2
Press release:
Carlo Lio lines up his inaugural compilation, and in doing so extends SCI+TEC’s burgeoning ‘Past, Present, Future’ series with a two-part selection of tracks exclusively from the label’s vaults.
Part 1’s focus is the ‘Past’ of SCI+TEC, and the tone is set by Kaden’s remix of Squillace’s tech-house smash ‘One Lobster Please’. The mix gives a fantastic journey through the various high points of the label, with Carlo’s approach evident in the dual use of Dubfire’s ‘Rabid’ before Luca Bacchetti’s remix of ‘Crazy Madness’ adds a playful element to the mix.
Part 2 then deals with the present sound of the label, whilst also nodding towards the future. Notable highlights are crowd favourite Paul Ritch’s ‘Common Sense’ with its brilliantly worked sample. The breadth of SCI+TEC is aptly demonstrated here with Nick Curly’s remix of Zoo Brazil’s ‘Slob’ and it’s eerie top line sit effortlessly with SHDWPLAY’s ‘Subconscious’.
However, in advance of his forthcoming mix compilation on SCI+TEC, Carlo Lio releases a sublime two track EP that cuts right to the heart of everything that is positive with house and techno in 2012. ‘Keep Grooving’, his fourth EP for SCI+TEC brings Carlo back to the forefront of people’s minds. His desire to stay one step ahead of the scene has meant he has been in constant demand as a producer. Whether it is his fast, deep pulsing tech-house, or groovy chuggy techno, Carlo always delivers. And ‘Keep Grooving’ continues in that vein.
