With a history of notable releases on respected labels like Cheap Records and Editions Mego and his energetic live sets, Quehenberger has built a reputation for a distinctive sound.

His latest release, the vinyl EP "Hot Water", comes as the inaugural offering from the newly established label "other machines".

Opening with "Emortal" a slowed down four on the floor beat is acompanied by a heavy bassriff and wobbly psychedelic synthlines, the record picks up speed but maintains its dark but catchy vibe with the house -like "Heaven" featuring strings and another wallshaking bassline.

The B-side starts off with "Trytrance", combining filtered melodic fragments with an acid infused synth bassline and a wonky but speedy disco beat. The title track "Hot Water" that sounds like from the inside of a steamroller, and the final track "Thirty Three" each escalate tempo and intensity into a pulsating wall of sound.

Quehenberger's improvisational ethos shines throughout the EP, allowing for spontaneity and exploration while maintaining a cohesive sonic narrative, mirroring his live performance style, where moments of unpredictability often lead to surprising revelations.[info sheet from distr.]
