SCANNER | MOSKAU DISKO

Following the success of "Teenage Wochen" in 2006, Scanner follows up his slippery electro trip with "Moskau Disko", the warped daughter of a night spent in a digital orgy of wagnerian creative excess on german label BineMusic, home to modest musical surprises. Terrorized vocals open the acid slip-disc party atmosphere, kraftwerk seduce the aphex twin in the kitchen, and james holden takes photographs of Paris Hilton washing up the beats, and publishes them on myspace. This bewitchingly groove-laden russian discothèque is contrasted by the slow motion elegance of russe traum, as the stockings are tidied away, the curtains drawn and the lights softly dimmed.
