Cirez D released few days ago his new techno EP, composed of two tracks "The tumble" and "Exit". Cirez D aka Eric Prydz, had published his last work « Viro » under his nickname Pryda. Exiled in London, and expelled from the Swedish House Mafia, he released this EP on Mouseville Records, founded in 2004 and exclusively reserved for his own productions. He also released previously the hits "Re-Match" and "Knockout" on Mouseville Records. For the record, the latest release of the label was "Bauerpost" and "Glow", two very good tracks.
"The tumble” is a dark track. It uses an underground bass, with a break composed of a simple beat and an addictive melody, oppressive in certain moments... The track, which concludes with techno sounds, is quite linear in its whole. This track, which disappointed us for our first listening, returns to the sources of Cirez D, with a somber and heavy atmosphere.
"Exit" is very different from "The tumble”. Progressive at the beginning, the track is getting stronger with the arrival of kick after 3 minutes. Then, it remains simple and without much change of rhythm. There is nothing to add, unfortunately!
Both "Bauerpost" and "The tunnel” had a real inspiration, but "The tumble" and "Exit” doesn’t match the actual level of Eric Prydz to be honest. Simple in their rhythm, the productions are very linear and failed to seduce us. We can feel the frustration of the artist, who cannot go through with his creative ideas. We will for sure wait for the next release of Cirez D, who needs to restart the machine.
