barcelona-based street-techno artist christiane delivers six tracks of anxious and grinding techno sound, infused with early gabber influences and shades of nitzer-ebb and early ebm. cherry-picking the hardest vibes of early detroit techno, christiane blends them with abstract gabber synth sounds, squelchy 303 basslines, and dark ambient breakdowns. this ep serves as a platform for the artist to express both rage and dreams, pressure and release, embodying an involuntary exercise in reconciliation.
