Cheerful Pessimist

Our latest premiere is now online featuring a track titled 'Your Love' by French artist Antigone on his 'No Pain No Gain' imprint.

Antigone’s ‘Selected Works Zero One’ EP marks his turn of focus into the seemingly forgotten Hard Groove movement of the early 00s with a newfound stylistic approach... a bold decision taken as a step away from the BPM race that seems to have taken over the industry, with its hard and soulless sound.

The release closes on ‘Your Love’. Thick and fast in sound, it’s drums and riveting percussive build-ups lead the way. Minimalist in its approach, the well-placed vocal injections and atmospheric elements in the mix create an undeniably standout option for demanding sets and wanting crowds.

Mutual Rytm welcomes back Swiss DJ/producer Chlär for a bustling, high-octane return as he unveils his latest six-track EP, ‘Intrinsic Drive’. 

Swiss artist and mastering engineer Chlär’s last outing on Mutual Rytm, his ‘Optimized Grooves’ EP, was a stand- out success that made an impact far and wide across the techno realm. It was another big step for the fast-rising producer, who is also a dexterous DJ that plays across three and even four decks in the club. A craftsman of sounds, his take on techno is full throttle and has come on labels like Iceland’s NIX and Stranger’s Self Reflektion imprint. Always looking to improve his sounds, he hits a perfect sweet spot with a fresh and visionary approach across six fresh productions with his ‘Intrinsic Drive’ EP, again showcasing exemplary creative progression in his ever-impressing production skills. 

Up first is ‘Dopamine Rush’, a quickened techno pumper with synths peeling off the straight-ahead drums and locking you into a state of hypnosis. The title track ‘Intrinsic Drive’ is a tightly woven mix of drums, hits and bass that never lets up, while the supple rhythm is overlaid with alien sound designs to up the intensity. ‘For Marco’ takes a heavier path with darkened and more weighty kick drums under eerie synth loops. There is a real swing in the drums of ‘Steady Pace’ as the crisp hits and vocal fragments all up the ante, before ‘Greedy Man’ delivers a tough panel beater with skewed synths and an industrial undertone. Digital bonus ‘May I Dance?’ rounds things out with raw textures and unhinged loops that take you to the heart of a strobe-lit dance floor, shaping up another mighty fine statement of intent from the ever more vital Swiss native. 

Chlär ‘Intrinsic Drive’ drops via Mutual Rytm on 4th August 2023.
