A few good tunes Vol 11
A mini compilation with some top tips, including Der Zyklus, E.R.P. and SHXCXCHCXSH
Visible Spectrum is the opening track from the new Der Zyklus album Renormalon, and sounds very promising; beatless and ambient. Slam continue their march to Techno utopia with a banger that unfairly provokes references to the Knight Rider theme but actually delivers a high-tension, peak-time dancefloor destroyer! E.R.P. is Gerard Hanson aka Convextion and he makes the sweetest, dreamiest Detroit Techno. Ancient Light is the lead track from a forthcoming new EP of the same name. Lead track from the new KILLEKILL compilation MEGAHITS II is by Umwelt and what a belter it is! Gravitational Lens has all the hallmarks of a classic Aphex or Plaid tune. Word on the street is that Umwelt has a new album coming soon too!
From their debut mini-album Reflection Spaces, Cryo Enemy by Silk Road Assasins dabbles in dreamy Dubstep... beautiful! One of the better tracks on A Mind Forever Voyaging, the debut ASOK album, is Visible Differences, mixing moody synths with resonant beats and vocal samples; head-noddingly good - out on Creme Organisation now. We have a taster of the new SHXCXCHCXSH album called SsSsSsSsSsSsSsSsSs (nine 'Ss' = track nine, innit?). Final tune is from the mysterious Studio OST and their album Scenes 2012-2015. It's actually a collaboration between Alvin Aronson and Galcher Lustwerk, and the music is deliciously swoon-worthy... think Detroit Techno again (can never get enough).
