Amsterdam’s Tim Wolff debuts on BALANS after two amazing EP’s on Wolfskuil Records. He delivers 3 uptempo techno tunes with strong Detroit references, that showcase some one of his best work untill now. BALANS head honcho Darko Esser has been roadtesting this peaktime package for almost a year and it’s time to unleash the beast.
	
Angular is build around a catchy, funky bassline with the 909 drummachine working overtime for a major workout on the dancefloor. Sad But True is a straight forward, in your face banger. There’s no way to get around it, so we recommend to just undergo the sonic punishment. No questions asked. 
Closing track Louter brings things down a notch. Ultraminimalistic and stripped down to the bare essentials. It’s hard to create a simple melody wich doesn’t bore after 6 odd minutes, but Tim seems to have no problem whatsoever when it comes to creating addictive hooks. 

Simply put: the Angular EP is one hundred percent prime-time material and contains 3 secret weapons for all you techno jocks out there.
