Mechatronicast 5 by Andrew Red Hand is an electrifying album that showcases the Romanian producer's mastery of acid techno and electro. The album opens with "Electronique," a pulsating track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Red Hand's signature acid sound is on full display on tracks like "Escape From Alpha Draconis" and "The Future Is Ours," which are both driven by thumping basslines and squelchy 303s.
The album also features a number of collaborations, including "The World Is Mine" with Robert Cosmic and "The Machine" with C-System. These tracks add a welcome diversity to the album and showcase Red Hand's ability to work with other artists to create something truly unique.
