berlin head mike davis drops four tracks of uncompromising techno taking inspiration from the raw side of house music and 90 s 303 acid culture, what makes this collection stand out is its freeness. it could be argued that the structure and arrangements fall more in line with jazz than traditional techno. mike manages to avoid the constraints of techno production and delivers natural yet unpredictable arrangements. themes and moods change throughout taking you on a journey through berlin via detroit.

2014 was a busy year for ztrl and tape hiss alike. we’ve been enjoying the support of numerous music-addicts, record collectors and djs for which we are massively grateful. this is exactly why we are going back to where it all started and bringing you a new ztrl release. the tracks which are featured on jelen (’now’ in english) ep work well on their own yet they form a cohesive sound when put together. each track on the release is universal as we can think of them as dj tools in a good sense or as slowly building independent compositions. it’s up only to the djs how they wish to use them.
