Mulen marks the arrival of its second vinyl with the release Aloft from Tish. This Kiev-based lady is definitely seen as a key player in the Ukrainian underground. The original mix of Aloft is stripped-down vogue techno with a funky baseline and tick-tock percussion. The track is flashing out the skippy, atmospheric style one might call Mulen s signature sound. Under number two we have Samples of Silence where Tish explores possibilities of rhythm and space. The track progresses through a clean path of precision drums to a warmer meditative lead. On the B-side Cadenza native Valentino Kanzyani plugs 9 minute remix of the titled Aloft. Quoting a minimal running techno, Kanzyani stockpile some much-needed tension while keeping the arrangement uncluttered. His hypnotic groove beneath a blunted and ponderous baseline deliver us a darker, more cosmic vibe.
