about

Johnny Piras is a DJ/Producer from Sardinia, based in London. He joined Groove Manipulation Recordings in 2018 before establishing his own Tholos Records imprint. His productions and performances have transformed from breakbeat to techno and hard techno, and they are always in constant evolution. Following releases on Expel Your Demons, Divine Intervention, Cause Records and several others, Johnny makes his debut on Rudosa’s Moments In Time imprint with ‘Good Old Days’, featuring respective remixes from fellow Italian Rian Wood and Rudosa.

Kicking things off, the title cut ‘Good Old Days’ lulls you into a sense of ominously downtempo grunge before hurling you face first into an onslaught of pumping hard techno. Explicitly industrial in his approach, flooding the mix with harsh resonance and corrosive frequencies, this driving thrill seeker of a track will have you hot under the collar from the outset.

Rudosa’s remix somehow manages to add more fuel to the fire, slightly cranking up the tempo and injecting a wave of vampirical acid-tinged musicality to the mix. Breakneck rhythms and a reeling vocal hook combine perfectly with an endless tirade of screeching melodic splashes from start to finish here.

‘Rave Genesis’ follows, bringing more hair-raising grooves to the table. Sur-160 bpm ferociousness is the norm across this cut, with rippling cadence and sparsely placed breathers providing an addictive sense of uppers and downers that complement the track’s gritty analogue rave flavours and pounding drums. Rian Wood’s take on ‘Rave Genesis’ comes with a slightly more new-age feel. An electrifying bassline provides the voltage throughout the track, slicing straight through a mix of hammering kicks, flippant lasers, warping vocal loops and sped-up industrial percussion to carve out an endlessly gripping dancefloor bomb.

The EP ends with ‘Stay As You Are’, featuring another impressive free-form intro from Piras. The final dose of in-your-face hard techno cleverly tips its hat to breakbeat/jungle in places whilst delivering another over-worthy display of riveting industrious rawness and subtle musicality.
