nice one. good balance of sinister with a competently ass-displacementing groove, cheddar-free.

Drumsauw - Solstice (PRRUKD21103)

Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS192

Although based in Berlin for several years, Dustin Zahn has continued to exert influence over the fertile but steadfastly underground Minneapolis techno scene as part of the Intellephunk collective whilst cultivating a worldwide rep via releases for Blueprint, Token and his own Enemy Records. The ‘Gain of Function’ LP sees Zahn channelling the groove-fuelled techno of the late ’90s and early ’00s and shaping eight powerful but funky contemporary techno tracks that display the decades of experience under his belt. 

Forged from a series of live jams with two drum machines and two synths, the album is a refined collection of raw, purist techno brilliance. Across the A-side ‘Tell Me About Paradise’ brings shimmering staccato chops under bright and airy percussion before ‘Tangie Groove’ picks up the pace with floating pads, vocal slices, and a rumbling bassline. On ‘Lucid Dreams’, scattered percussion plays with hypnotic synth licks, while ‘Smoking in Silence’ sees off-kilter leads dancing between emotive vocals and evolving drum loops.

Opening the second disc is the deep and shuffling ‘Crimson Cheeks’, with trance-inducing samples nestled between sharp drum hits and rolling synthesis, and ‘Days Like These’ takes a darker turn as twinkling arps and droning pads carry the track. ‘Shark Rodeo’ featuring Jeremy Black mangles samples into a dense rolling affair, before closing number ‘Next Level Looseness’ drops the 4/4 pattern for a raucous club track, combining oddball sound sources and unruly production techniques for a trippy finish to the album. 

Since the late ’90s, Zahn’s hypnotic and driving techno has consistently caught the ears of top DJs and labels worldwide, with anyone catching his marathon sets at the likes of Berghain exposed to expansive sets. In addition to his techno-heavy catalogue and DJing prowess, Zahn has lent production and engineering skills to bands and singers, recently working with Poliça and on Carm’s Pitchfork approved eponymous album. Beyond this, his vital work with Intellephunk includes the nearly two decades long running Communion after-hours events, cementing his invaluable contributions to the scene.

Following four acclaimed EPs across both Rekids and Rekids Special Projects, the Irish-born, Berlin-based Hybrasil returns to Radio Slave’s techno-focused imprint for his fifth appearance on the Rekids labels. Bringing four no-nonsense techno cuts across ‘Wild Blue Yonder’, Hybrasil displays his knack for crafting a wide range of deeply playable dancefloor-friendly techno.

Title track ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ leads with pounding kicks and bubbling stabs before ‘Abhean’ brings the tempo up as gritty synths unfurl across razor-sharp drum patterns. ‘Erimon’ takes a deeper turn, with dubbed-out chords and reverberant hits rumbling throughout, followed by the final track ‘Oenach’. In a similar fashion to the ‘Erimon’, elements of classic dub techno meet Hybrasil’s pitch-perfect production to close out the release.

Glaskin come with a rapid response to the storming debut on their own imprint, YAEL Trip, with another pulsating and robust take of unconventional techno. Marcel Fengler's rework of 'Structure', meanwhile, stays true to that seminal producer's singular take on the genre.
