Lisbon's VOLTA maintain consistency with 3 more servings of deftly expressive Techno courtesy of Brazilian producer HNGT working alongside collaborators Tao Andra and Lutgens.
Working alone - HNGT kicks us off with 'Voices In My Mind'. A stiff kick is the track's ballast, occupying a dimly lit underbelly alongside sparse zaps of bass and a pulsing Prog-bassline. The low end pins down a tension that remains tightly coiled throughout while smokey textures and melodies form spectral hues overhead. The track then opens out across a beautifully cinematic breakdown as an airy vocoder glistens into focus before 'Dark Sun' follows up with some intricate psychedelia. Here, HNGT works alongside Romanian talent Tao Andra who dashes in some of her vivacious flair and together the duo set serpentine melodies curling and flexing over another rugged low end. Delicate FX use casts trippy signals to the far corners of the stereo spectrum before 'Nebulous Unity' sees the return of Lutgens to VOLTA as together - the duo finish the EP off with a hard-edged DJ tool. Jagged signals and cold but nimble bass frequencies as the key ingredients here; together they work in tandem to dial in a rolling boil perfectly suited to peak time floors.

For the next instalment of Say What? we see two of our regular and powerhouse techno producers Greg Notill and Tony Romanello join forces to deliver an electrifying 4-track EP to set dancefloors ablaze and is a seamless fusion of their distinct styles!

The EP Starts off with 'Timeless' - a relentless banger characterized by its pounding bassline and atmospheric textures, setting the tone for the voyage that lies ahead. Raw sound design and deep pulsating stabs keep things rolling and driving, maintaining the energy from start to end!

'Patterns' is up next delving into intricate percussive patterns and evolving synths, injecting a surge of adrenaline with its rhythmical energy and hypnotic groove and being a testament of the boundless creativity and collaborative energy these two producers bring together.

Third up is 'Collateral Damage', the track that blends rhythmic complexities with infectious sound tweaks and takes the listener on a sonic assault with its deep energy that ignites the senses straight away from the first moment you listen to the track.

Last on the EP is 'Ingoma' - a high end roller that is both hypnotic and uncompromising, from the moment the needle drops, you are plunged into a whirlwind of distorted synths, thunderous basslines, and modular percussions!

Enjoy

Enrico Sangiuliano came up through illegal raves and is now a top DJ who plays all over the world and has his music played by the likes of Adam Beyer and Sven Vath. He has had the longest ever running techno number one on Beatport (his remix of ‘Can You Hear Me’ for DJ Boris on Alleanza) and is one of the best selling artists on the site at any one time. His music comes on Cocoon and Drumcode amongst others, and is powerful, direct stuff for the dance floor.

Written entirely in Italy, “X-Pollination (or cross-pollination) is fundamentally the key factor of growth, consciousness and life,” says the artist. “It’s the way I connect with people, share my passion, fly from one place to another and put many influences and elements into my music.”

The title track is eight minutes of slow burning but hypnotic techno funk with rolling rubber drums and nervy pads. Frazzled synths add post apocalyptic vibes to this main room anthem and many well crafted peaks and troughs along the way help make it even more standout. It is a real techno classic in the making.

Mark Reeve is the UK star who remixes. He has a long history with techno that goes back to the rave scene. Since then his education has taken in trips to techno mecca The Omen, has resulted in music on Cocoon and collabs with Pig & Dan. He has also released on Drumcode and has a big rolling sound that fills the world’s finest clubs and warehouses with his unique grooves. His take on the original is more energetic, with searing synths, cantering kicks and a dark energy that makes you pump your fist and stomp the floor. It is full of drama and is perfect balanced from start to finish.
