Messy

With Multiply Your Absurdities, Helena Hauff delivers her long-awaited 12-inch debut on Tresor: a multi-colored inauguration, masterfully crafted by the inimitable Hamburg producer and DJ.

The title track Multiplying My Absurdities opens the record, with a slow burn of magnetic synths and numbing acid drops. Through its simple yet thrilling dynamics, it occasionally falls into playful skepticism, creating something truly unique, uncompromised, and beautiful.

Punks in the Gym is named after an infamous climbing route in Australia. As its namesake, the track mercilessly rises to a techno summit.
It gets steeper and steeper with every bar, resembling a volcanic dance where 303 earthquakes shake the ground before eruptions. 
Once you're halfway in, there's no turning back; all you can do is keep moving forward. 

The closing track, Humanoid Fruit, transports to an even darker prehistoric landscape. Synths bursts remind of fossilized Pterodactyls revived—a challenging but rewarding trip through acidic rain and the alleys of your mind. 

Originally released as the soundtrack for Teslaism by artist and filmmaker Bahar Noorizadeh, a 3rd person musical racing game featuring Elon Musk and his self-driving car/lover and life coach, as they drive towards a shareholder meeting in a post-gamified Berlin landscape. It premiered at the "Tresor 31: Techno, Berlin und die große Freiheit" exhibition in 2022 and deals with stimulating skepticism about the emergence of a new era after Post-fordism that she calls Teslaism: "an upgrade to the system of production and consumption predicated on advanced storytelling, financial worldbuilding, and imagineering 'the look of the future.'" What has been once inspired by Helena Hauff's dystopian sound has now been made into an official music video for the track.

Much like the video, Multiply Your Absurdities represents a journey into futuristic uncertainty.

Critical heavyweights Kasra and Enei join forces once again for another explosive round of powerful drum & bass sonics, this time joined by south-London grime MC JoSoSick.

Both regular solo contributors to the Critical Music catalogue, the studio relationship between label boss Kasra and Enei began well over a decade ago. This latest pair of tracks sees their signature sonic styles combine once again in typically immaculate style.

Beneath JoSoSick’s relentlessly energetic, double-time bars, ’Plan’ is a hard-as-iron two-step rhythm, filled with bubbling percussion and driven by a distorted, jabbing bassline.

‘Sonic Energy’ strips things right back, proving less can always be more and staying true to its name with a spacious, ultra-tough dancefloor weapon that fidgets and stomps with punishing precision.

This one is called 'Dread Gap' or 'Schreckenslücke' in German. The term refers to the discrepancy between how much people feel afraid of a risk versus how statistically dangerous it actually is. This term is often used in the context of behavioral economics. My second ever track produced using the Elektron Syntakt- Albeit sparingly. MPC triggers SH01, SE02, Microfreak, Prophet Rev2, Hydrasynth, Peak, Minilogue, Microkorg and TR8S. Oh and the Microcosm is in there doing a bit of weirdness too. Have a lovely weekend
