#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.
