Introducing new sounds into the continuing MANHIGH project with Azteka Tekno, emerging Moscow producer Ober Dada finds rare power with his refined combinations of EBM and techno. Fusing concepts from Dadaist, Futurist, and Suprematist art with vocal guests from the Krasnodar Opera on ‘Tomorrow No’ and ‘Erdefalt’, the sophistication of his vision is immediately apparent in the arrangements and structures. With lyrics sourced from World War I-era apocalyptic poetry and a forthcoming opera from the artist, these two efforts show uncommon complexity in their running times, with layers of vocals and melodies trading off in sections with punishing rhythms that move between lashing breakbeats and straighter 4/4 sections. The comparably straightforward title track prominently features the producer’s own snarling vocal refrain, repeated through heavy distortion over pounding kicks and wayward electronics, while a contrasting melodic sequence enters from the breakdown for needed relief. Again featuring Ober Dada’s voice, ‘Hey’ foregrounds its wandering keyboard line for a comparatively restrained but still intense study on the styles found across the record.

Ober Dada - Azteka Tekno - MANHIGH008 - Previews

Over seven years of Grounded Theory and a clutch of celebrated releases to his name, Henning Baer has already proven himself one of the finest Berlin has to offer. With the launch of his MANHIGH imprint, he takes the jump to full control of his own output, freed of the constraints of collaborators and outside artistic direction. Like the groundbreaking experiments after which it is named, the label continuously seeks the rushing forward edge, a mission reflected in its releases, which focus on Henning’s own production and those artists, undiscovered and established, whose work achieves similar altitudes. Reaching the far edges of the atmosphere while remaining aimed at the ground, MANHIGH will regularly push new barriers in techno and beyond.
