Alin Crihan isn’t one of the better-known producers on Bucharest’s thriving minimal house scene, but he is certainly one of the most talented. The Grosso Mondo EP is his first release for two years, and follows on from two superb – if arguably underappreciated – 12″ singles. The A-side title track sets the tone, wrapping semi-discordant orchestral notes, manipulated electronics and phased dub effects around a rich bassline and swinging tech-house groove. Flipside “Circa” is an altogether warmer and dreamier affair. While Crihan utilizes similarly trippy effects and intricate percussion programming, the bassline and melodic flourishes draw far greater influence from dub house and dub techno.
