Lo-fi electro outfit Warriors of the Dystotheque return with their second EP “Return To Coney,” a 5-track electro odyssey inspired by the cult ’70s film The Warriors.
Title track “Return To Coney” brings deep, dark tones to the mix with electronic beats, sombre strings, and haunting vocals provided by Ella Joy. “Return To Coney” is followed by “Escape From Coney,” a song which is a direct nod to the aforementioned The Warriors original soundtrack, as the Warriors return to Coney Island for the final scene of the film.
This is a more up tempo portrayal of the band’s energy, while still keeping the lo-fi sound that makes to the two tracks flow seamlessly from one to the next. The EP finishes with three separate remixes of “Return To Coney” that all have their own individual flavour, dependent on the listeners current mood.
“Return To Coney” is definitely more progressive than their previous release, “The Future is Ours” EP, and it will be interesting to see whether a debut full length will be in the cards for the near future.
