#techno variations

Zuli - Tany   from: Zuli - All Caps EP (UIQ, 2021)

"Tany" mutates out of Zuli’s classic "Trigger Finger" with basslines and amens sure to devestate dancefloors once again.

‘All Caps’ catches ZULI with his foot on the gas, rebuilding his sound and accelerating the dancefloor pressures heard in his previous work.

Fire through my veins.

A few words from Possession:

MRD - FLOWERS OF FLESH AND BLOOD

When I first fell across MRD it was love at first play. I listened addictively pretty much everything from him, and the more I listened the more I loved. Superwoman was massive but I knew that more was about to come. His Modular corona jam was promising, indeed.

And now he drops this. Flowers of Flesh and Blood lands during weird times, when pretty much everyone is experiencing a sentimental chaos, accumulating tension and emotion with nowhere to release. Amid techno bangers, come moments such as those in Save Me Another Time and whiteflowers to finally release some of this accumulated tension and emotion, through intensifying the pain, maybe, but still works. I find it exonerating. The timing of this release is just so to the point, even though it hurts somehow. It reminds us how much we missed physical contact, how much we missed sharing moments with people we know and people we don’t know, those happy simple moments and those more intimate ones, all those things that we have all of a sudden been deprived of, the same things which were once taken for granted. So we know now how precious these are - we learnt the hard way. 

As a wise man said, techno people are romantics. Maybe that’s why we love tracks like these so much, and we listen to them again and again.

This also serves as a positive reminder that humanity will never run out of talent. We are curious by nature and we will keep on experimenting and creating. Man and machine can make magic. Good things keep happening even if we are locked, as long as we don’t settle.

MRD - Superwoman

In between live streams I fell across two tracks from this album, Superwoman and Etnas. It was a few days ago, in Randomer’s Club Quarantäne Set. When I got the chance to listen to the full Superwoman album I was filled with excitement, I loved it; so fresh and so addictive. Hard to choose, but I think Etnas is my beloved one, I feel my heart pumping the most with this one.
