Synapscape – Act!

This harsh rhythmic noise act needs no introduction. Since ten years Synapscape produces industrial techno with pounding distorted beats. This new album Act! doesn’t show many changes.

Tracks like ‘The Hoe’ and ‘Wings’ could well become dancefloor hits. Only during a few moments Synapscape takes a step back and leaves the dance beats behind. ‘Soundcheck’ for example is a relaxing ambient track and ‘Sellout’ is also a rather tranquil piece, despite the noisy sounds.

In general Act! is a decent industrial album but there is nothing shocking new or revolutionary to be found here.
