Os alemães Phour Trakk e Sick-E trazem-nos o projectoZengineers. Lançam os seus álbuns por uma netlabel de seu nome iD.EOLOGY, onde se pode fazer download gratuitamente dos seus trabalhos. A sua música é uma mescla de trip-hop, breakbeat, downbeat e lounge. Entre o melancólico e mais agitado, o seu som vem contaminado com traços jazz, dados pela suavidade de um piano e por alguns saxofones perdidos ou outros instrumentos de sopro. Pela label iD.EOLOGY contam com dois álbuns lançados, Mental maps for large territories e A gesture of irritation. E daqui, veio o seguinte sobre o álbum A gesture of irritation:
"The German duo Zengineers specializes in the sort of lounge-ready downtempo that on first listen might be dismissed as mere shopping-mall background music. But there’s more than just louche mood-setting on its 16-cut ideology.de netlabel release, A Gesture of Irritation. The best tracks have a mix of sampled jazz, light-touch turntablism and found voices that bring to mind early Funki Porcini, DJ Cam and other stalwarts of the start of the Warp, Ninja Tune and Mo’ Wax labels.
Irritation opens strong, with the soundbite melodic bursts and surface-noise textures of “ni:esahp” and the raspy groove of “Aspheric Focus”. Other strong entries include “Fast Asleep,” all heavily muted horns and deeply sublimated piano, and the gingerly dubby “Time Travel (forward)”.
Not every song on Irritation is great. “Heroine” and “Monster” suffer from vocals whose delivery just don’t match the quality of the instrumental parts, and “Into the Tomb” strives for an industrial rigor it can’t attain."
Para ouvir fica o tema Heroine retirado do álbum A gesture of irritation e para download ficam os links para os dois álbuns do projecto.
