Album Review

Italian DJ and producer Mauro Picotto built a name for himself with the massive reptilian trilogy of trance hits, "Iguana," "Lizard," and "Komodo" (as in dragon). But if you haven't already stopped reading, then hold on one more moment, because Picotto has made the rather unconventional shift from trance histrionics to chugging techno thump.

Almost every selection on The Others utilizes the rapid tribal-loops of Swedish techno to achieve maximum dancefloor velocity. However, unlike the staunch DJ tools that have come out of Sweden in the past, Picotto turns simple track mechanisms into overblown epics that swell and crest like his most popular work. To techno purists, this makes Picotto a sheep in wolf's clothing, but to trance crowds looking for a harder rush, it makes Picotto exactly what they've been waiting for.

"Back to Cali" and "Pulsar #" deny all of these propositions, reworking 1995 trance with aplomb. There's no mistaking these routine arpeggios and synth stabs. But the rest of this album deftly walks the line between rugged beat tracks and epic dancefloor fillers. The coin flips continuously throughout each selection.

Mauro Picotto--Harder Than Hell

Mr Mauro Picotto has done it again!! Album 'The Others' is custom made for those of you who like nothing more than having your chest caved in, and hair stand on end whilst shivers run down your spine and shoot out the bottom of your feet!! A total mind meltdown from beginning to end and not to be taken if your of a nervous disposition!!! 100% Hardness......

Top of his game

I love the stuff Mauro comes up with and this earlier album is no doubt an impressive ensamble of tunes to beat you back onto earth. These tunes have to be played loud to be really appreciated. The louder the better I say. Enjoy - Belissimo Mauro, bene fatto e mantiene il buono lavoro!
