Barcelona arts collective HEX readies the final 2020 release from its HEX Recordings stable with Under Black Helmets >Lose Something To Gain Everything< EP landing mid-January >Lose Something to Gain Everything< sees Lithuanian producer Under Black Helmet turn in four tracks ranging from the haunting, beatless >Running Barefoot< to the more familiar territory of acerbic industrialism on the title track. Regardless of the bpms utilised across the EP, each piece on >Running Barefoot< is joined by an ethereal melodic motif employed variously to either colour the whole track or subtly employed to create tense contrasts. HEX founders Paolo Ferrara & Lorenzo Raganzini deliver a remix of >Running Barefoot< that, during its six and a half minutes, flies through a dense, ever-evolving patchwork of brutalist techno that steadfastly refuses to stay in one place.
