about

Israeli producer Eliezer drops 3 cuts of post-punk & Middle East influenced disco on Days Of Being Wild.


A prominent figure of the underground music scene in Tel Aviv for more than 20 years Eliezer is no stranger to Days Of Being Wild, having released the neurotic and anxious “With Screening” with his partner in crime Middle Sky Boom, back in 2016.
Since then Eliezer has been rather busy, releasing records with Eskimo, Unterman, Prins Thomas imprint Internasjonal (as Midnight Dicers) and La Dame Noir.

His latest EP Haifa Mafia, released amid world wide confinement and paranoia on your favourite purveyor of disco noir doesn’t stray from his cold wave tendencies - pretty fitting for such dark and strange times.

All cuts presented here are very much in the Israeli post punk/ wave sound we grew to like.
There is minimalism and elegance in Eliezer production as well as a nod to retro industrial and electronic music from the early 80’s such as Cabaret Voltaire or Front 242.
But with a very contagious exotic twist.
The three tracks on offer here are constructed on repetitive and hypnotic disco bass, dusty percussions and oriental, languid guitar lines all colliding to create an airy and pulsating sonic landscape of dancing melancholia.
Children voices, whispers cascading through echoes, cryptic messages and vaporous synths contribute to the mix and create a dark, moody almost cinematic atmosphere enhanced by the general slow tempos of the tracks.

Closing the EP is an even slower slice of melancholy techno, Belgian producer Strapontin’s remix of Crown Zero chugs along the darkest alleys of clubbing with its claps lost in echoes and guitar trapped in tar, like these dreams where you run but feel like you are standing still, or where you try to escape but never seem to reach the exit.

Happy quarantine.
