Set Theory's quest to build unique relationships between different people and create new behaviours on the dance floor continues with this new EP from German Affair.
This duo hail from Barcelona and make arresting industrial techno that proudly takes its cues from iconic German artists. They are sound lovers who layer up analogue and digital gear into bold new forms and frameworks to push the boundaries of sound design exploring notions of infinity, mathematical musical forms and abstraction.
First up is the brilliant 'Not Like Em', with overdriven synth loops and muffled voices woven into paranoid layers of edgy techno then laced into hard hitting and broken drum beats. 'KBon Klinik' is an acid laced techno track that builds to a frantic peak. Suspensory pads take you higher and add to the sense of dystopian space travel.
Next up is 'Poisonous Tongue' which traps you in an edgy word of serrated, machine gun-like synths, crashing hits and drums and dark vocals that are sure to become anthemic once large clubs are marching to its beat. Closing things out is the haunting and eerie 'Bloody Daddies' with its punchy drum programming, distorted textures and utterly physical rhythm all run through with freaky spoken word samples.
German Affair ‘Poisonous Tounges’ drops on Set Theory Records on 31st January 2020.

RELEASE NOTES:

Héctor Sandoval is well known for his more than 20 years career as half of the Exium duo, as well as for his solo project Tensal. 

Komatssu has been his alias for a more introspective body of work, releasing spare pieces of IDM infused, harmonic , melodic stuff spiced with broken beats and rythmic textures.

For this collection he has compiled works dating from as far as 2007 into one container that appears totally cohesive, as all the tracks are really attemporal in style. 

For the making of this album, melodies and music came first and then several kinds of grooves were added, ranging from slow tempos to complex danceable sound palette almost done with broken beats, except some  4/4 excursions as D2.

Distortion and harshness share space with evocative landscapes and cinematic arrangements on a ten track sound travel that will stay aside trends and hype. 

Music to be listened carefully, cooked slowly in his country house in the beautiful north of Spain.

This lost tracks stored on a hard drive now make sense as a whole work twelve years after and for good.
