Second Skin - Sense Of Purpose BP066

KR3.009 

KR3 Records, 
is proud to welcome Hector Sandoval to its roster. 

Known for his work under many aliases (Komatssu, Selección Natural) and for being one half of Exium, with his solo project TENSAL the artist explores a more instinctive approach to sound arising from a modern vision of techno. 

Recorded entirely analogically, Forgiveness of Blood is the perfect demonstration of his vision; With an ambient intro to ease the listener into the experience, the EP moves through the raw and scratchy sounds that have always distinguished both KR3 and the artist himself. 

The reference to the 12” dynamic and rough rhythms is also clear in the artwork curated by Chianjna.

KR3.009 | Tensal - Forgiveness of Blood EP

Written and Produced by Simone Scardino aka CONCEPTUAL, Berlin 2020/2022

Digital 
1- Ninna Nanna For Bad Children
 2- Me Medesimo 
3- Højer 
4- Not An Easy One
5- I Always Feel Like Somebody’s Watching Me

 
CONCEPTUAL is the musical journey of Berlin based producer Simone Scardino, a sci fi techno specialist well seasoned with releases on the best scientific labels out there. His approach on techno comes apart from trends and superficiality, it always has an underlying message and it’s made with detail and intelligence.
 
This extended EP is not for the faint hearted, it requires some knowledge about intrincated soundscapes and requires attention and long term vision to capture the feeling properly. It can be completely beatless and atmospheric as the open title Ninna Nanna For Bad Children or super rhythmic like Me Medesimo where broken and bass heavy beats combine with elaborated textures exquisitely sound designed to cause the required damage on the dancefloor.
 
Højer is traversing similar terrain, but this time based on a 4/4 beat, rugged and distorted, metallic and industrial, a no mercy weapon for the darkest sound spaces.
 
On the B side, Not An Easy One gives another ration of proper non conventional dancefloor action, again with a well balanced combination of groove and texture.
 
 I Always Feel Like Somebody’s Watching Me closes the release changing the approach completely going hypnotic instead of muscular, with a complex drum work spiced with super-treated synth lines in constant change.
 
The sound of the future experienced today, made by a visionary.

Kwartz - FAST FOCUS EP - [RELEASE DATE 21 APRIL 23]

Four tracks of techno pressure from Spanish heavyweight Kwartz. Since 2011, Kwartz has been steadily building a renowned discography of powerful and rugged club cuts. The “Fast Focus” EP, his first appearance on Setaoc Mass’s label series SK_x. It is a prime example of this deep, dark and driving sound: from the peak-time grind of “Impulse” to the dank, atmospheric echoes of “Haram.”

A1 - IMPULSE
A2 - CLIMAX
B1 - FAST FOCUS
B2 - HARAM

Lidvall das made his debut with us in last September. About half a year has passed and he's back. Since then he established his trademark in the scene. Developed his own personal style and has been imprinting it in every single release. This one is no exception. The dark, feral atmospheres and hallucinating rhythm are a constant and perfectly noteable throught all the EP. We're happy to have him on board once again.

Welcome back!

2- All that matters
3- Descending darkness
4- Cyclical nature
5- Inside trauma

Kessell is back at home with a powerful EP plus a bonus digital track on the digital edition. There is no need to remind everyone that Valentín Corujo is one of the most experienced producers on the techno scene. And this new work is the sonic proof.

Nothing left to say opens fire with distorted broken beats soon aligned by a solid 4/4 groove. The harsh sounds run across the stereo field wisely while the beat goes relentless. A powerful and raw peak time tool.

All that matters is the second cut,  beginning with a bass heavy groove, sibilant and distorted at the same time until the additional percussive parts appear and the subterranean bass turns into distorted hypnosis as the bars go on. An intense and obsessive piece of rugged techno.

On the B side, Descending Darkness, an industrial funk workout made of continuous distorted sequences and an enforced drum beat. No sign of breakdowns or epic moments, just a continuous drill for your neurons.

Cyclical Nature goes scifi and mental, with reverberated sequences running over a solid cemented pattern the spiral sequence turns into overdriven madness as the track goes combining aggression with futurism.

Inside Trauma uses broken beats as a basement, one of Kessell’s personal signatures when working on his side project Exium.

Another stepping stone on a solid and long career for this excellent creator.
