A Insider
B1 Hiding Hand Principle
B2 Pram Reset

This 3-track EP was released in 2013 by the talented Italian artist Madteo, based in NY, via Rabih Beaini's Morphine Records. Gritty lo-fi textures, deep sub-bass, and blurred rhythms intertwine to create Madteo's unique soundscape, which doesn't allow house/techno to settle into clear genres. The title track "Insider" is excellent with its intoxicating repetition and distorted funkiness, while "Hiding Hand Principle" and "Pram Reset" further enhance the abstraction, hinting at dub and industrial influences. It's a deep record that melts the boundaries into experimental music while maintaining the functionality of dance music. Also recommended for fans of unusual house/techno in the vein of Actress, Kassem Mosse, and DJ Sotofett.
