Reviews and Comments

'Wandt Uncorked' is the latest offering from Berlin-based organic/electronic label Púca Sounds. Helmed by the multi-percussionist, genre bending synth master Niklas Wandt, '…Uncorked' feels like an homage to infinite dance-floors both in and out of this world, slotted neatly into three diverse tracks. The connection throughout is undoubtedly found in familiar percussive reverbs laid with lucid synths from the first track, left with a feeling of no stone lying unturned.

A1 - Wandt Uncorked

The first track of the EP is a prog-heavy requiem, laced with warped synths and a percussive softness inviting you to take it straight to the dance-floor. 'Wandt Uncorked's' sonic agility is framed by the kind of driving energy that only swells more as you move, offering a new rhythm layer by layer.

A2 - Gottesfuß

Offering dreamy synths with echoes of 'A Hundred Days Off'-era Underworld, 'Gottesfuß' bends into a sprawling, sexy-weird five minutes of bliss. Building with a familiar-feeling vibrato and the cosiest anchor of bass, the second track from Niklas is your backdrop for mid dance-floor moments and after-hours alike in love.

B - The Prowler

The B-side to Wandt’s latest EP glides through every unchartered subaquatic realm imaginable. Slick breaks blend evenly into myriad underwater drones and/or extra terrestrial cries to form a deftly cast soundscape that truly highlights Wandt’s prowess as a percussionist.
