After teaming up with local friend and talent Stijn Sadée on their previous release, XXX are back with a ninth instalment on the label with another promising upcoming Dutch artist in Luca dell’ Orso.
Luca is hot priority after successful releases on labels such as Bordello A Parigi and Red Laser Records. For XXX he serves up five Italo oriented tracks that range from ‘heads turning on the dance-floor’ club bangers to more sophisticated slower tracks.
Completing the package is a remix from the always excellent Machinegewehr, who provides a slighter darker sound which both stands alone as a quality piece of music but also compliments the whole record.
For this sleeve, instead of using conventional methods for image production, graphic designer Niels van Haaften decided to code his own image processing algorithm from scratch. By accessing the image as a data set, new imagery can be drawn based on the data set. By using mathematical formulas to alter the access points to the data set new rhythmic patterns are created within the image. The algorithm coded specifically for the sleeve of XXX009 Luca dell’Orso translated an image of flowers into this colorful and abstract album cover.
Release Date – 22/05/20
