Alarico returns to Mutual Rytm with his ‘Drops Of You’ EP, packed with his mind-bending signature rhythms while focussing on a more minimal and atemporal approach than before. 

Milan-based artist Alarico has firmly arrived on the world stage in recent years. Taking cues from the harder realms of techno of the 90s, he adds his own quirky rhythms and quickened sense of groove to showcase his modern take on the genre. Building on material dropping via his own Katana Records, with high-profile support from big- name DJs across the scene, he breaks new ground again here on this compelling new EP as he returns to SHDW’s label Mutual Rytm with ‘Drops Of You’. 

Excellent opener ‘0 Kelvin’ races out of the blocks with wiry synths and percussion that sounds like knives being sharpened, all over tight, punchy techno drums. ‘One More’ then gets more twisted with freaky synth lines scurrying about the mix while hammering hits and bouncy drum programming races onwards into an unknown future. 

‘Asma’ slips into a deeper but no less impactful groove - the tightly coiled drum funk is overlaid with soulful vocal whispers and militant snares that cannot fail to sweep dancers away. Next, the slick ‘Sunburn’ keeps the pace high and is another warp-speed techno excursion with bold drum patterns and dry hi-hats cutting up the beats. It’s a fulsome sound fleshed out with great synth detail and euphoric vocal cries, before closer ‘Drops Of You’ layers broken beats, vocal snippets and psychedelic synth colours into an intense and emotional workout. 

Alongside the vinyl cuts, three digital-only offerings are also loaded into this one as a trio of treats in the form of ‘Sino’, ‘What For’ and ‘Erased’, with each track harnessing pacy, energetic rhythms, a mix of bright and murky sonics, and tunnelling grooves crafted for maximum impact. 

Alarico ‘Drops Of You’ drops via Mutual Rytm on 8th September 2023.
