We named 1788-L as the next huge production artist to watch in the electronica scene the other day. The buzz is already near deafening when it comes to this enigmatic project, whoβs given us sensational remixes of Skrillex & Poo Bearβs Would You Ever, as well as a brilliant edit of Daft Punkβs Rinzler. A quick trip down 1788-Lβs Soundcloud page presents us with countless other originals and remixes to pleasure our ears. The mysterious artist has since released a beast of a new tune named C Y B E R S P A C E, which kicks off in its overture like a dark entry into the world of Blade Runner, epic Vangelis synths, somber organs, and all, before a whole lot of classic electro and progressive house electricity kicks in to remind us of Justice and Breakbot, but darker, with haunting interludes and metallurgic tones. We find ourselves exploring a dark future with 1788-L and his theatrical banger. Ominous moments also rival the sinister, tense tones of acclaimed film composers, like John Carpenter or retro-synth loving It Follows composer Disasterpeace. Suffice to say, 1788-Lβs music isnβt only brilliant, itβs exactly the cinematic thrilling, adrenaline pumping music I love, with throwbacks to sounds I grew up loving, but modernized with contemporary dance elements. Download this soon to be superstar producerβs latest original, here. I canβt wait to catch him live someday.Β
