Starkato - Astral (inc John Cosani Remix) - AR159
Starkato lands on the veer reliable Asymmetric Recordings with 3 new cuts, and backed by a remix from John Cosani.
Starkato has released music on Sudbeat, BeatFreak, ICONYC and Movement to name just a few. His melodic and chunky sounds always cause a fuss.
The title track 'Astral' is a gritty melodious affair, with dirty synths and tinkly tones and packs a mean punch.
'Apply' is a punchier affair, with its bubbly bass and leaning towards a Berlin melodic sound, with its wobbling synths and incessant bass.
The last of the original tracks from Starkato is 'Curtis Road' is a moodier driver, energetic and charismatic.
John Cosani Remixes 'Curtis Road' to round of this package nicely. the Sudbeat fave takes things deeper, and brings a dreamier vibe to proceedings, while still keeping depth and energy throughout.
