kyle geiger returns on his home label with a set of tracks designed to recapture the basic function of techno. it s music to sweat to at a party. additionally, this package aims to capture a sense of timelessness through melody interwoven with a pumping breed of techno rhythms. the title track, homecoming, starts with a bottom-heavy percussive workout, then presses forward with an array of slowly filtering brighter synth stabs. the breakdown sees an arpeggiated synth slowly overtake the rhythm of the track just long enough to build tension and bring things back to full speed. the verge is a very stripped back, drum track style cruiser, which builds tension with a rising distorted pulse sound filtering in and out. just as it seems that the back half of the track will carry on as planned, a running melody comes in and changes the direction of the entire track. the verge (beat tool) is identical to the original, but build for those a little shy about slightly more upfront melodies.

beautifully designed lp on 180g vinyl! just waking up and everything sounding slower. holes in the wall. the unknown in the familiar. the shock of the new. just-turned rubble. thick clouds of recall. muted high-life, de-centered hip-hop, and disparate conversation. heavy, sinking jazz and dissected infomercials. too much chewing gum? not quite anything, or half of something. reminds me of. smells like? turkson side is africanus okokons first album. it is almost entirely sample-based, made largely within a simple, custom-made playback software with each track recorded in one take with very little editing
