Denzel & Huhn Paraport
- Words: Dave Segal
- Label: City Centre Offices
- XLR8R Rating: 7/10
Denzel & Huhn can whir and glitch like it's 1999. That may sound glib, but there's no denying this Berlin duo's fondness for thickly layering the textural grit and digital effluvia that marked Mille Plateaux's infatuation with sonic errata. Championed by To Rococo Rot, Bertram Denzel and Erik Huhn often mirror that band's mesmerizing pulsations, understated menace, and winsome melodiousness. D&H serves up eerie, sub-aquatic dub as viscous and prickly as Pole's and artfully smears crackling tones like Farben and Fennesz. This IDM is a cut (and a click) above.
