Rotterdam based duo ARKVS release “Oppression” EP through the PRRUK black series. The result is an exciting package of futuristic techno sounds and searing drums. The duo has managed to find a perfectly executed trip throughout the different sides of ARKVS. While the general tone is darkish throughout, there are some uplifting atmospheres and hints of hope to be found in this package. While the title track is a thumping piece of dancefloor techno, the cinematic voyage “Our Deepest Fear” is a stand-out production of adventurous electronics. On the B-side we find “Chose To Defy”, which is a tough work of dark techno and the somewhat more mellow “Nonviolence” on which an intrusive bassline is combined with some beautiful synth sounds.
