For mix number 16 in the PPRZ Podcast series, we have a mix from Italy's @lensis

Lensis is a musical project created by Francesco Giannuzzi, born in Varese in 1987.  His journey began in 2009, playing at various clubs and festivals between Varese and Milan.  His DJ sets are characterized by acid, dark, Detroit, rave, and electro sounds, influenced by IDM and ambient music. 

In 2012, he released his first tracks, "So Acid" and "Another Taunt," on P.T.R. (Physical Techno Recordings).  In 2015, he co-founded the Fluctus Soul label with his friend Marco Bove, releasing the EP "Haneke" and the 2018 EP "Cosmic Research." The latter featured a notable remix by G-MAN, a member of the renowned British duo LFO. DJ MAG magazine reviewed it as follows: "a selection of galactic Techno and supercharged energy with enough dynamism and flair to take any party to a higher plane." A preview of the single "Neptune" was also released.  

In 2020, Lensis participated in and won the remix contest for the single "Blaze" by Marco Bailey & David Schwarz, released on the MATERIA label.  In 2022, Lensis released two new EPs on Sector Audio and Diffuse Reality Records.  Francesco collaborates with Tech Clubbers as a resident DJ and co-organizer of their events.

Means&3rd - Character Ethic EP

Record number 3 from Unveiled Nuance brings a new confidence in the further developed sound of owner Means&3rd. A continued eye for detail as well as a roughness that breathes dark soul into the production aesthetic that we have yet to hear from the artist.

“Hardship Repackaged As Growth” Opens the EP with boomy, rugged low end and grainy driven synth lines with sharp hits of wide sonic impact and a depth of layered atmosphere, placed on a bed of dense percussion until its break point exposes contorted, abrasive stabs just surviving the crunch of their processing, that then take the forefront. “Countenance” replies to the previous track with a more calculated, rounder and organic palette of audio that focuses on a cadenced synth line that breaths with the arrangement, fizzing to break point and engaging the deeper listen. Swung percussion keeps the groove providing a propulsive backing that sits on gnarled bass hits before the focus returns on the charged lead line.

“Character Ethic” carries deep suspense from the off, with filtered menace being teased below the surface, warping atmospheres are stacked and build the apprehension against a militant 16th shaker before an almost vocal like modulated synth reveals itself and is left to dance prominently across the stereo field. Layers of energy providing percussion complete the picture for a mesmerising trip. “Desperate And Relevant” the most driving of the 4 cuts takes an effectively reduced stand where square wave accents build new levels of intensity. Propulsive low-end and cohesive percussion writhe through the track’s arrangement closing out the EP with a powerful ending, a blistering siren sees the track’s breakpoint provide a release worthy of the pressure built.

Pressed on 140g black Vinyl, reverse board full-colour print sleeve with poly-lined inner sleeve.

Border One - Split Recall [TOKEN136 | Premiere]

Berlin based producer Ed Davenport unveils new material under his Inland alias with the Nightfall EP on Figure SPC. The Inland project reflects a more purist, hardware driven approach to techno. Many of the elements are recorded live, and overdubbed to build up a modulating, dynamic sound. Glide introduces us to this new territory with an airy, spacious wash of textures and atmospheres. This then leads us to Nightfall where sinister strings and filtering synth stabs tell a tense and dramatic story, underpinned by a tough, pushing kick. Snaking and jacking with an insistent thump and rolling bass, Support submerges vocal manipulations and classic synth chords in spacious reverb, adding to the effect of motion. A more hypnotic trip, Celebration locks down a dubbed, psychedelic synth pattern, driven by another powerful kick and a teasing sub-bassline. Celebration is also included in a dub form as a digital only extra, expanding the space within and creating a different mood entirely.
