Inigo Kennedy Elevation 7 MOL022 (Molecular) 12" (May 2001) (A1) Urgency (A2) Movers And Shakers (B1) Krunch (B2) Cascadence |
|
"Despite the excessively linear beats throughout much of this EP, Mr Kennedy proves once more that few can let a tune effortlessly glide and swell the way he can. In an era of forced DJ-friendly edits it's a refreshing change to hear the subtleties of rolling synth percussion and broken pulse width buzzes doing the work for a change. The drums are given just enough room at the right moments to kick the momentum off once more and original use of snares and cymbals provide a lesson to many a banal ride-cymbal exponent. Class." www.overloadmedia.co.uk |

"The man that should have a bottle of cologne or perfume named after him, maybe he could call it IK or maybe IK-1, unleashes another oustanding twelve on Molecular this week that resumes his recent onslaught of mental and minimal atmospheric tracks that are far from just the normal *bang bang bang*." www.n-siderecords.com |

"With 'Elevetion Seven EP', Asymetric label owner Inigo Kennedy shows another fine chapter of its knowledgeable talent. Known because of its minimal taste and repetitive works on Zet Records and Missile, prolific artist that appears today on his 4th solo Molecular release (after various collaborations with Marco Lenzi under XX name) formats his music for the dancefloor in a four innovative funk cuts. Pumping and jumping!" www.atome.fr |

"A timely release from Marco Lenzi's Molecular label and the continuation of a relationship with Inigo Kennedy that began way back in '96 with 'Urban Society'. No track titles but, over the four cuts Inigo delvers is straight laced, fierce, inventive and involving. Yet further proof of an engaging, individual style." Jockey Slut Magazine |

"Style is important in techno music and one of the reasons why Inigo Kennedy is going to be around for many years to come is becuase no one else sounds like him. He has his own style. All four tracks on this EP are superb but it's the two bone crushers on the A-side that grab the most attention. So waste no time and head for your local vinyl emporium!" 8/10 WAX Magazine |

"An intelligent, well produced EP kicking off with the savage gritty basslines, computer bleeps and Millsian beats of A1. A2 is mellower with dischordant organ prods; B1 is a similarly gentle proposition with its perky beats and ghostly synth cumulus. It rounds off with B2, a solid, chugging builder with angry buzzing sound fx." Mixmag Magazine |

"Mr K returning to form with this hottie on Molecular.A side kicks off with 2 Axis styled techno pieces and on the B things get a little more minimal." WATTS |
|
|
"With his highly accomplished and varied debut album proving he can apply his distinctive style to an array of tempos, Inigo Kennedy returns to his roots for his latest EP. Alternating between harsh, noisy loops, stripped down percussive arrangements, dense, swinging grooves and deep, atmospheric techno, 'Elevation Seven' is a breath-taking synopsis of Kennedy's dynamic style." 4/5 DJ Magazine |

"Inigo's 4th solo Molecular release 'The Elevation Seven EP' provides four tracks of innovative funk demonstrate why he is one of the most inspiring techno producers around!" Haywire |

|
"Das seit Ewigkeiten aktive Label Molecular, oft ein Playground der D`Arcangelo Brüder aber schon mit einigen EPs von Kennedy, kommt mit sehr lockeren Sequenztracks puschend oldschooliger Art von Kennedy, die jedem Verfechter des "orginal" Millssounds noch einmal nahelegen, daß diese Richtung von Techno nie aussterben muss. Ist nicht nur sehr gut produziert, sondern auch mit genügend Ideen, um nicht nur wie Retro zu klingen angeheizt." www.de-bug.de |
