Repress! The band was formed in Vienna in late 2014 by Violet Candide and Mahk Rumbae. After working together on one of Violet's solo songs, "Heat", the pair decided to continue working together and formed Mitra Mitra as a more full time project, with the aim of writing electronic songs not tied to any particular influence or style. However, if there was such a thing as a signature PY sound- arguably this LP (alongside last years Vorderhaus full length), encapsulates it most. Beautifully icy cold synth pop straight outta early prime era Mute / Blackwing studios output. Serene yet melodic, edgy, dry icy hooks and delicious grooves aplenty all over this record. Eight wonderful tracks where quality and sheer melodic guile of the song writing never dips and attention truly is held across the whole set, no mean feat indeed. Limited to 300 copies.

HOME CURRENT - THAT SUMMER/GELB'That Summer' is a beautifully punchy, percussive slice of electronica. This real slow burner, which is best whacked out with the volume hiked up, complements the more stripped down, yet equally melodic flip 'Gelb', that sort of reminds of Yellow Magic Orchestra.
