Release date :  17th March 2014

Dave Seaman & Funkagenda - Naughty Forest (Nicolas Masseyeff Remix) Snippet

One of the celebrated of the Herzblut family returns for what will be his first release since his 2011 album the The Motherland. With six releases to date including his debut long-player, French artist Nicolas Masseyeff has become synonymous with the label, and boy have we missed him. Having recently graced the likes of Suara, Selador, Noir and Mo Ferry with his music and lent his vast studio talents in the aid of others, Nicolas comes home with his latest work Vero. 

In an time where relentless linear beats can still dominate the dance floors Masseyeff is a breath of fresh air. His courageous use of melody and warm atmospheric tones are both warm and uplifting and carry the listener toward new electronic horizons. All evident once again in the spine-tingling Vero and its snarling, groovy heavy brother LEN. 

Out on 02.10.2014

Review by miccom Aug 01, 2001 (edited over 10 years ago)
A classic 1997 techno-record really, though it stretches quite a bit further than just pure techno. It was a major leap forward for Dri whose former output comprised mostly of trancy stuff (of both the slow and fast variety). Tracks here vary from electro over full-blown techno to minimalistic ambient scapes. There's even a drone-track, 'Turmoil', which feels oddly out of place, but is a sign of Dri's ambition to release not just another techno record. Stéphane Dri succeeds on almost every level even though the record isn't exactly groundbreaking or anything. Most of this was already done (and even better) by Juan Atkins. Though to Dri's merit, hardly any of the tracks feel like filler (except for 'Blue072C' which feels much the same as the superior 'Red Dogs'). Standout-tracks are many and include the menacing electro-techno of 'Wasteland' (also released as a single with some additional remixes), the slow deep minimal techno of 'Wood' and the over-the-top freakiness of 'Red Dogs'. 'Voodoo' and 'Secrets' deserve good mention as well in my opinion as they bathe in a dark claustrophobic atmosphere. Dri promised a lot with this record, but to this day, he hasn't really delivered. 'Lost', the record's successor was more limited in scope and somewhat disappointing. Though you may feel I was a bit hard on Dri here, this really is an excellent record. You can't go wrong with this one if techno and/or electro's your thing. Great listening. 7.5/10
