Affekt Unit, the new collaboration between Philoxenia Records founders Luigi Di Venere and Neu Verboten have unveiled their new tune “Loon In Moon”.
The track features on their debut EP ‘Dust Off‘ due out on January 20 via Dischi Autunno. Pre-order it here.
Under this moniker the pair blend their musical obsessions, rooted in Italo house, Frankfurt EBM-house and trance.
Diving deep into the excellent EBM sous acid vs. downtempo trance trip offered by first track ‘The Struggle’ and ‘Dust Off’, it’s clear that both are in total control of their subject, and it goes on with the more speedy-techno meets celestial trance ‘My Spirit’, a nod to Transcultural Shamanism, “which is the true core of what raves, festivals, and clubs are: moments of detachment from reality as well as places of sharing across cultures”, as Luigi explains.
Loon In Moon is the EP’s super trippy and catchy tune, where once again Luigi’s voice can be heard, whispering’ My Thumb instead of an onion’, words taken from a poem by the late American poet & novelist Sylvia Plath.
Stream it below.
Finally, the true force of the EP’s 4 tracks is that they never derail from the main goal, keeping an infectious groove going on and on and on.
