Modwerks Vinilo y CD

Review: O aka Phase delivers a powerful punch with the 'Living Proof EP', a high-energy techno release that keeps the momentum strong from start to finish. The first side kicks off with 'Shape Shifter', an intense and hard-hitting track that drives forward with relentless beats. Next is 'Number Zero', which adds an eerie, futuristic vibe with its dark groove and sharp, addictive rhythms, pushing the boundaries of techno. On the other side, 'Living Proof' brings in more melodic elements, balancing the EP's energy with techy precision, while 'Deluge' closes things out with an unstoppable tribal pulse, offering a raw, primal edge. Each track has its own distinct personality, making this EP a dynamic, exciting listen for anyone into heavy, forward-thinking techno.

Review: Modwerks hear producer Saag deliver a second spicy round of floorshakers, all four of which are tangentially inspired by Brazilian music. Don't get confused, though, as the rhythms on this one remain starkly rooted in techno through and through. 'Puxa' and 'Void Searching' lead the charge by way of two unchanging techno stasises; unrepentant walls of fidgeting sound, which reach a head at the hard-claps and blurting chords heard at the second track's end. 'Orie' and 'Reverie' flesh out the textures moreover, with the latter track especially going especially filter-happy on the fidget lead.
