Max HeyraudOur first premiere of the week comes in the form of a silky smooth roller from Mōdem & Germa as they team up for a delightful slice of hypnotic groove for Irish based techno imprint Syncopated Records.
Syncopated Records welcomes Glasgow groove master Modēm to their new and refreshing imprint that has been focussing on minimalistic & groove focussed techno cuts. The six track EP is a fine collection of deep and rolling techno rhythms, built upon original tracks from Outflight boss Modēm as well as a collection of remixes, and a collaboration with fellow Outflight chief, Germa.
Modēm serves a powerful EP packed full of raw, driving, percussive and minimalistic groovy tracks. This release consists of three original tracks as well as remixes from Danny Wabitt, Marcelo Antonio, Mikrotakt.
Modēm & Germa serve up a chilling piece of hypnotic goodness as they team up on ‘ORRO’. Jeff Mill’s style syncopated bleeps are the star of the show here, while whirling and gripping atmosphere with acute metallic hits make this repetitive synth line so contagious. Rolling low end and tactile percussive grooves facilitate the rhythmic entity off the main sequence, and capture a thrilling and glossy atmosphere. This is hypnotic techno done properly.
