Hertz - Fat Fingers
Hertz - 1979
Hertz - Paris To Lisbon


Hertz lays down his fattest finger on the synths and delivers an absolutely killer bassline. Combined with his signature funky techno grooves, the result is a seriously infectious track. Next up is 1979, built around a sample straight from that iconic year. Pure funky techno tool vibes from start to finish. And finally, a track that was born mid-air, somewhere between Paris and Lisbon. A funky piano stab, tribal rhythms, and dub sirens! What could possibly go wrong?

A driving force in the techno scene, Spanish producer and DJ Ramiro Lopez has shaped a sound that encompasses techno, acid, urban and even Flamenco, as seen on this standout new release to make his debut on ARTCORE. Accompanied by tracks from an exciting producer from the UK called Tobias Paul, the alias of established house producer Curbi with his take on groove laden techno – the brand new 4 track release will be out on the 17th July. 

Ramiro Lopez makes a welcome to the ARTCORE stable bringing with him esteemed Flamenco guitarist, Miguel Clemente and Andalusian vocalist, Belén Vega. “I had the idea to create a fusion of styles, bringing authentic flamenco vibes into the world of electronic music” adds Ramiro. Both Miguel and Belén are deeply rooted and respected within flamenco tradition, creating something for the open minded and experimental.

Commencing with ‘Ay Candela’, the EP’s opener brilliantly matches the vivid intensity of flamenco with the brooding energy of techno. Whilst pounding, pacy and fierce in parts, Lopez and Paul have made certain the vibrant Latin influences of the tracks Spanish collaborators shine blissfully through the beat’s otherwise heavy, brooding ambience. 

Two tracks on the release are from Tobias Paul, the techno alias of esteemed house producer Curbi. Carving out a groove laden techno sound, this will mark his 3rd release to date, opening with ‘Brazil’, he quickly gets to work delivering a high-octane but obscure concoction of fizzing, whistling effects aside rolls of simmering snare. A chopped vocal bounces in-between thick bass tones and warping synth climaxing with a plume of whooshing melodics and final frenzy of lyrics.

The stringed brilliance of Miguel Clemente and soaring vocals of Belén Vega again take centre stage on ‘Solea’. Following a series of bell chimes comes a deep, galloping percussion and snare combo before a chorus of impassioned vocal lines ring out emotively across slamming cymbals, grumbling melodies and restless, fidgeting hi-hats. 

‘Poseidon’ is an ice-cold solo effort. Doubling down on the visceral potency that fuels much of ARTCORE DUO V, the beat possesses a diligently crafted groove that swirls aside militant drum rolls, pulping rave motifs and hollow tones to close the EP in a shadowy, low-key style.
