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

Asymmetric head Inigo Kennedy returns to his label with a tantalising five track EP Number Crunching. Title track Number Crunching slaps you around the face with its machine-gun percussion and heavy kick whilst a gritty sonic landscape swirls around. Into The Red Valley is quite the provocative number, constantly evolving, constantly shifting layers of sound over a steady four-to-the-floor. Third track, Komorebi, floats into place with a dream-like melody intertwined with pads and held together by an instantly recognisable Asymmetric style percussive drum section; sunlight leaking through trees. Next up is the retro-feeling of Countersink before the release closes with Mysterious Clouds, a sublime almost 10 minute sonic journey grounded by heartbeat-like kicks; an absolute beauty of a track.
