As oversaturation becomes more prominent in electronic music, artists willing to sit in their niche, like Munich's @konrad-wehrmeister, are a breath of fresh air. His willingness to play with rhythm and texture offers a distinct viewpoint to techno that - for many - is becoming too hard, too fast, and too stale. With this all in mind, it makes sense why he has settled at the Zenker Brothers' prominent imprint, @ilian-tape.

For those familiar with the label, it's not hard to hear why KW belongs there. With his roots buried in Latin music, Drum and Bass, and Hip-Hop, he possesses those somewhat staple IT sonics heard throughout much of the label's catalogue. 

With DnB-inspired, break-focused drum programming, slow dubbed-out chords, and gritty lo-fi textures, KW presents a unique merging of stylistic motifs that have flourished in the resistance-free environment Ilian Tape has created for its artists.

In this feature, KW breaks down his mix and talks about his musical lineage, the Ilian Tape crew, and more.
