The fourth instalment in Pev's Pulse series finds him further widening the scope of his sound as he touches on the distinct energies which inform his unique strain of soundsystem techno. 

'Pulse XIII' deals in stark, tweaked-out acid lines cutting through a taut drum machine backbone, balanced out with a sci-fi pad which lets you know its Pev at the controls. 'Pulse XIV' finds him dialling up his jungle roots once more for a dreamy excursion into diced up breaks, cascading synths and dislocated piano chord chops. There's a deeper dub techno spirit to 'Pulse XV' and 'Pulse XVI' deals in the raw, bleep-informed jack tracks that have started to creep into Pev's sound as the Pulse series has evolved.

We're taking you deep into a realm where the warmth and humanity of dub meets the cold, precise, mechanistic impulses of techno. A record like the seminal remix of "Starlight" by Model 500 (AKA Juan Atkins) is a perfect example of the power of spatiality: every element in the mix is given breathing space and, accordingly, takes on a sense of the organic. It's a work of architectural, structural, and musical genius. It's a fitting name and a perfect end to our brief insight into a world that drips with sonic richness. Pretty much every good dub techno record ever made has a similar framework like "Twelve Miles High" by Burger/Ink. Those records, and a hundred more like them, ride and roll on the kind of blissed out chord patterns that could repeat into infinity.  These are the roots of dub techno, the vast majority of tracks on this mix were made before 2000!
