Africa HiTech - Hitecherous

Review by Noel Gardner

Circa summer 2010, this is only ‘pretty good’, but it’s very easy to see how Africa HiTech might assert themselves among the bass legions. »

limited to only 400 copies. africa hitech is more than a name; it is an ideology - one that embodies its members passions for an eclectic diaspora of electronic styles, from dub and acid to uk garage, grime, techno, house and jamaican dancehall. mark pritchard and steve spacek stand at the intersection of all these styles (and more) and the result is a bass-fuelled
manifesto. created at red bull music academy in 2007, africa hitech forms part of mark pritchard's collective of projects - mpp productions. mpp is a banner under which all the wide-ranging productions from this prolific producer can co-exist and released through warp it includes africa hitech, harmonic 313, new reload material, and others. 'hitecherous' is a six track juggernaut of a mini album, following debut single 'blen' and to be followed with further
releases and dj dates throughout this year before the album drops in early 2011. spanning a vast array of genres, yet never feeling like style tourism, the pedigree of these two renowned artists combines to create something startlingly fresh.
