Ad.lib & Silvision: Collide Label: Affin This is a debut techno EP from Ad.lib & Silvision of Zurich, Switzerland off Joachim Speith's excellent label Affin. The EP iss dark, cold, doesn't change much, and most tracks have a characteristic pounding beat. I hesitate to call it "minimal" because "minimal techno" is a fashion. There is a lot of noodling around with electroacoustic noise textures & static, it's kind of raw & skeletal if anything. The strongest tracks are 1, 4, and 5. 1. Steady and solid heavy deep pounding of beats for a very basic rhythmic framework. Some electroacoustic noises but not too much else, just a good beat. 2. Remix of #1 that has signature heavy beats but more swirly effects, a lot of crispy staticky layers of noise 3. Another remix of #1 that is more techno-y and layered with analog blurps 4. Spooky swirly synths over a minimal tech-house framework, kind of cold but has a nice relaxed feel with the gentle synth tones 5. Meaty beats, a more powerful sound. Lots of textured crackles and abrasive grinding sound providing some percussive layers. | ||
