4 Cities EP – Tape 17

Deniro has been a low-key but high quality operator for the last few years. He’s now back on his own Tape label out of Amsterdam with four tunes inspired by different cities around the world. ‘Detroit’ opens with deep Motor City techno laced with soft acid and subtle bird calls that bring an organic feel. ‘Amsterdam’ leans more into the drums but is still a warm, supple sound with late night serenity in the pads and ‘Birmingham’ cuts more loose and has taught techno and spangled synth lines. ‘Paris’ has a classic touch with warm surges of synth and icy hi hats that are oversized and jazzy. Tasteful tackle.
