following up on their very well received previous release on roots, ortin cam and charles bells are now consolidating their position with black, episode 6 of what is rapidly becoming one of belgiums premier techno imprints. three different tracks, three showcases of what techno can be in 2010.
black is no holds barred, banging darkness, referring back to the funky, industrial sound many of us still feel techno is all about.
saga is engineered to offer dj s the mother of all breaks, building up to a drop to match. this animal guarantees complete devastation, mercifully releasing the crowd s energy after minutes of anticipation. pyramid explores a slightly different realm of the genre, making use of dubby effects, voices mangled beyond recognition and a deep, stomping repetitiveness that will pummel listeners and dancers alike into a state of hypnotic detachment.
