Matt Mus, Kai Pattenberg - Polygonamie  EP [DS209] #8 & #18 HARD-TECHNO Top 100 Tracks

Artist: Arucal & cause_effect
Title: Genesis EP
Label: Genetic Ritual
Catalogue No: GEN001
Release Date: 12th December 2025
Format: Digital

Luxembourg artists Arucal and cause_effect launch their new imprint Genetic Ritual in 2026 with Genesis—a split EP that introduces the label’s identity through five tracks of dynamic, experimental techno, complete with a standout remix from France’s Odium.

Founded and curated by Arucal and cause_effect, Genetic Ritual is a techno label rooted in minimalism, emotional intensity, and the raw fundamentals of club culture - movement, freedom, soul, and shared energy. Genesis serves as the project’s first statement of intent, alternating between both artists to present a cohesive and forward-facing vision for the imprint.

Opening the release is Arucal’s ‘1994’, a thunderous techno trip driven by heavy low-end, undulating synth work, swirling textures, and breath-laden, warped vocal elements. cause_effect follows with ‘Connection’, maintaining a hypnotic yet high-octane pace through powerful kicks, shuffled hats, glitch-leaning percussion, and cavernous reverbs that push the track into expansive territory.

Arucal returns with ‘Balrog’, harnessing brooding bass swells, pulsating subs, and slowly unfurling atmospherics over stripped-back, rugged drums. cause_effect then raises the intensity on ‘Unfold’, blending modulating synth lines and metallic tones with a tight, driving rhythmic core. Closing the EP, French producer Odium delivers a deep, atmospheric reinterpretation of ‘Unfold’, reshaping its core elements into a moody, percussive counterpart that rounds off the package with finesse.
