For his second EP as solo producer, Melokolektiv reveals three original bangers, with the first two exploring his techno side and the final track swinging more towards tech house. Aptly entitled, the opening track Petrichor evokes a rainy atmosphere by way of an acid infused zippy lead. With a steady, neutral groove, the track doesnt take the spotlight, but just seems to prepare the listener for the following offering. Despite popping up second in line, title track Virgo is definitely the centerpiece of the release. With a full on submersed groove, stripped production and heavy bassline, its hypnotic groove is engaging while the punchy kicks lock it down. Instilling a dystopian atmosphere by layering grave and ascending synths, Second Fall is a tightly wound up piece. The tension slowly subdues after the breakdown but the overall mood remains compact, revealing an undulating percussion. All in all, a step into production maturity and an upturn from the French soundshaper.
