Lorenzo BITW - Love Junction (2018)

If you've been out to a certain type of club in Europe over the past few years (genre- ambivalent, rhythmically adventurous), you'll almost certainly have come across Rome-based producer Lorenzo BITW's neck snapping syncopations and joyously constructed hooks. Releases for touted club brands Enchufada and Nervous Horizon have brought Lorenzo's tracks to dancefloors and radio waves alike and he's proven comfortable across tempo and mood.Having previously released the Mina-assisted Tombura', Lorenzo's deft drum concoctions will be familiar to fans of the label, but the breadth of Love Junction shows a newfound confidence, embodied in the warm embrace of Hello' and the technical, start-stop strut of Goo'. Equal parts earnest and assertive -- and provide two potential pop moments, the former for faded LA summer drives and the latter dank London basements.Throughout Love Junction, tempo shifts and earworm mhooks keep the listener quite literally on their toes but its the emotional acuity imbued throughout that ties the album together from start to finish.
