@Uun - Proletarii EP (Soma 547d)

1. The Descending Passage
2. Cruelty Is Nothing New
3. Give Them Rope

Burgeoning Detroit based producer Uun debuts on Soma with his Proletarii EP. Having only just broke into the international scene, Uun has impressed with releases on Mord, his own Ego Death imprint and Glasgow’s own Animal Farm. His dark and pervasive sound continues with this 3 track release on Soma. 

The Descending Passage opens the EP with syncopated synths and an obliterating kick drum workout that only increases in intensity as more percussive elements join the fray. Cruelty Is Nothing New takes things down a darker more cerebral path with electrified, pulsating synths twisting and melding around tripped out drums. Give Them Rope closes the release with a more hypnotic feeling as polyrhythmic structures drive the synth hooks while jacked up and groove laded drums provide the power.

Uun's techno blends widescreen grayscale imagery with propulsive dancefloor pressure. Whether crafting what Hardwax dubs "straight ahead techno juggernauts" or deep, introspective tools, his work is grounded in a masterful command of atmosphere and texture. 

Uun developed his interest in fringe sounds as a guitarist and drummer in his hometown of Kansas City before shifting his attention to electronic music in 2012. This led him to relocate to Detroit, where he spent seven years pushing deeper into the underground techno scene, refining his production and performance methods. Between the Midwest and  several periods in Berlin—another city he's found a deep connection to—he's honed a style that's allowed his music to nimbly navigate between different subgenres, "quietly infiltrating" the genre from multiple angles at once. 

Uun's sound and his ability to mold it into a variety of forms has captured the attention of lauded techno labels like Mord, Semantica, and Soma. On his own Ego Death imprint, he pushes past genre confines and deeper into his music's underlying themes, exploring existentialism, duality, and the role of the artist in the modern era. His first full length, 2022's Derealization, interrogated dreams through rebuilding memories of liminal spaces, and on his latest Ego Death release, 2024's Platform Decay, he laces his tracks with a poignant criticism of social media-driven cultural homogenization while doubling down on his own uncompromising sound. 

As a live performer, Uun distills years of his studio practice into cathartic sets that build off his productions while pushing them into exploratory new territory. His live show has taken him to legendary clubs like Berlin's Tresor, Tbilisi's Khidi, Detroit's Movement Festival, and Brookyln's Basement, and alongside the decade-plus of releases under his belt, it's safe to say Uun's infiltration of techno might not be so quiet for much longer.

It's always about the mixing in life. In the few semesters of chemistry I studied, I already learned how to mix molecules and substances. But not only in chemistry it is important to mix different things to get harder, stronger or other variants. Also with us humans it is important to mix, to meet each other and to let something completely different and new emerge. 
We mix different kinds of vegetables and spices to get highly delicate food. We mix different materials to get designer clothes. We mix fruits for smoothies. We mix raw materials to obtain the most advanced technology. We mix colors for the greatest works of art in the world. And we mix different frequencies to create the best music in the world. 
Only by mixing can we create diversity and individuality. Only when we break down the borders between black and white and move in the grey zone it becomes exciting. Only by mixing can we achieve things that have never been there before.

One of the world's leading electronic dance labels, and one of the longest running. We have been putting out great music since 1991. Co-founded by Slam.
