#40 Feat. Banner in Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic)

Asymmetric boss Inigo Kennedy returns to his label with a tantalising five track EP Irregular Tapestry to close out 2025. Title track Irregular Tapestry opens the release in uplifting four-to-the-floor style; beat, melody and Detroit-tinged stabs driving along beautifully. Second up, Ballistic Limits keeps to a functional theme with undulating sound design and an irresistible classic 909 rhythm section. Centering the release is Amaterasu, full of characteristic Kennedy melancholy and playfulness. Taking things down a notch is the sheer menace of Aselgeia, oozing with dubby influence and flickers of sordid imagery. Final track Vapour Trails aches with drips of sound and a plaintive string section grounded by a steady kick heartbeat and takes its place as the last track of 2025 for the label.

#76 Feat. New Releases in Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic)

Asymmetric head Inigo Kennedy returns to his label with a first-class five track EP Welfare Syntax. Nuts And Bolts kicks off the release in functional style; a solid kick, undulating organ-like stabs and skittering hats blending in seductive balance. Next up is Totality, a steady foreground rising and falling, set to a four-to-the-floor beat and joined by optimistic tones and playful percussion. Centering the release is Subterfuge, an altogether edgier proposition; jittery shards introduce the track before the bass shifts up a gear and kick strengthens. Title track Welfare Syntax follows; a classic Kennedy combination of optimism and melancholy, sounds growing and fading through the track and set against a driving beat. Bringing the release to a close is Yorukage, taking things deeper and slinkier and oozing with menace and an addictive charm.
