Stepping up with the hypnotic, heavy-duty wares all set at knocking
your senses askew, Belgian producer Peter Van Hoesen lands us a monster
of a live set. Responsible for some seriously mind-expanding sorties on
the likes of Tresor, Vlek and his self-operated outlets Time To Express
& Center 91 over the past 15 years, Van Hoesen has established
himself as one of the scene’s driving forces when it comes to
integrating these cinematic ambiences into an effervescing mesh of
pulsating 4x4 rhythms and a millefeuille of layered envelopes acting
like quicksands. Recorded on the occasion of his latest live performance
at Tresor on May 10, this particular live harnesses that deep-diving
energy elemental to Van Hoesen’s intricate engineering of hi-velocity
dynamics and rippling dub interplays, ushering us headlong into a
bright, merciless furnace of sound. Checkmate.
