Rolando now marks his return to the forefront of the scene with The Afterlife EP. A deeply textured collection of tracks that represent a significant stage in this latest phase of Rolandos career with his music characterized by its smooth blend of warm, deep, groovy techno.

Creator of one of the most instantly recognizable records ever made and a legendary figure within techno thanks to his work as part of the Underground Resistance and Los Hermanos collectives, Rolando has been an ambassador for techno the world over with a career that spans 20 years. Currently embarking on an exciting solo career, Saved Records are proud to release his latest EP

Having rediscovered fresh inspiration and a refined sound that spans the genre divides between house & techno, Rolando now marks his return to the forefront of the scene with The Afterlife EP. A deeply textured collection of tracks that represent a significant stage in this latest phase of Rolando's career with his music characterized by its smooth blend of warm, deep, groovy techno.

Kicking off the EP is The Afterlife; a classic sounding piece of Latin-tinged melodic deep house laced with trademark Rolando strings and a sublimely resonant chord pattern. Paced out perfectly to allow the warm sounds to wash over the listener, a twisted edge is retained by a twitching 303 that reminds you this a techno record, albeit a mesmerizingly beautifully and deeply serine one.

Running provides the heavy dancefloor element of the EP. This one is all about the groove with a big old kick relentlessly driving along a combined symphony of a fuzzy, pulsing bassline and jacking synth loops. Abrasive and hypnotic, these timeless techno grooves are built to do what they do best. Simplistic and powerful with a respectful nod to the old school this joint is heavy.

Reminiscent of Roland's work as Aztec Mystic, Chatterbox, takes things to a darker place. Opening up with cinematic style space-age atmospherics, an ominous kind of edgy tension is the life force of this head-twister. Jangling, nagging keys provide the focus for a intense build while scratchy distorted hats split out at you from the thud of a marching beat. Wonderfully nasty stuff.
