OSCAR MULERO レコード& CD

Review: Smokey and mysterious Dutch dance from Immaterial.Archives, who here nail a sound that falls neatly in between something made by Burial and I.O Mulen. A compilation EP for the more nocturnal and detail-hungry listener, it includes Quelza's 'La Panthere Bleue', which contains guttural backalley groans and lighter-flicks; Eric Fletcher's control-room trancer 'Spiral 176'; 'Forma No Pura' by Oscar Mulero, with pressurized pink noise aplenty; and Divide's 'Nemesi', which judders and stop-starts like the cross-planetary calls of an alien race.

Review: Gritty and messy techno from Spanish head Oscar Mulero, dropping a brand new EP for Polegroup. Conveying themes of flow states, fate and apocalypse, this is a surreal and deathly LP sure to gast listeners as much as it energizes them. Ranging from hard techno soundwalls to fishbony spacers, our faves have to be some of the ones in the latter camp; particularly 'Dos Esqueletos'.
