Uzura / Vitriol

Cosmin TRG returns with another pair of killer modular techno tracks on his own label, Fizic. A timely reminder of the former Rush Hour and 50 Weapons producer's singular sound. "Uzura" starts with a brutal and blistering wall of rhythmical white noise. When drums do drop in, the fuzzy, scuzzy intensity remains and listeners are propelled along a frosty horizon with slithering synths, frazzled sirens, and hiccupping percussive sounds. "Vitriol" features spiraling pads, high-stomping drums, and a mangled acid line. An arresting EP of hugely textural techno that will surely dissociate and dislocate minds and bodies whenever it is dropped.
