Taking his name from the 1921 Italian robot movie of the same name, The Mechanical Man is the newest addition to the Tuscany based Bosconi Records stable, having just released a mini LP of retro-inspired house grooves entitled ‘Mechanical Soul’. That LP features the cluttered chugging rhythm of ‘Attrazioni’, a light-hearted percussive piece complete with pots and pans and playful, even coy keys that evoke a childlike innocence.

Founded by Fabio Della Torre, Bosconi’s varied output has consisted mostly of oddball house and broken excursions through electronica over the years seen – with solid releases from artists as divergent as Chicago’s Ricardo Miranda and Manchester’s A Guy Called Gerald.

Mechanical Soul is out on Bosconi Records on Dec 4th.
