We have already asked this before: When did you last listen to an entire electronic music album? Whether or not you are into such a treat, we highly recommend Roma Zuckerman’s “Phenomenon of Provincial Mentality” for your next degustation session.

Coming soon on digital and (double) vinyl formats on the intelligent Russian label Gost Zvuk, the 11-track endeavour is an absolute showcase of the creativity and craft of the Krasnoyarsk-based virtuoso. We are not 100% sure if Roma managed to explore the entirety of his influences, but IDM, Minimal, Electronica, Experimental, Techno, and impossible-to-pigeonhole cuts set the scene for a true multi-sensorial journey.

Premiered here, “Extra Work”, with its 156-BPM super frenzied gait, “harnesses a kind of pounding warehouse gabber energy with what sounds like a collage of shortwave radio voices”. Too bad it is such a short track, a couple of extra minutes would be welcome here.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label.

Follow Roma Zuckerman and Gost Zvuk, peeps!
