Pentagram

Pentagram is a varied full length that takes a leap in both Gui Boratto’s production and creative progression. From the driving club 1st single Forgotten, to the return of Beautiful Life vocalist Luciana Villanova with Overload to what could be his biggest pop music accomplishment to date as The Phoenix, there is a focus in his music like never before. Spur (a field-tested 808 and 909-heavy "purist track", "very, very old school" Boratto insists) and Alcazar are sheer smooth-edged four-to- the-floor epics, the album also shares its lot of startling moments, such as with the John Barry'esque Scene 2 (with a hint of Amon Tobin, 'Easy Muffin' style, throw in) and its refined string-laden buildup, 100% fitted for a 007 opening credit sequence; or with Hallucination (feat B.T.) and the further James Holden-ish title-track Pentagram (think The Idiots Are Winning).
