Alien Dancer EP

Nuron continues his journey on De:tuned with another selection of unearthed DAT tape gems! Nurmad Jusat aka Nuron / Fugue moved to the UK in the mid 80s. Soon after he went to his first warehouse party. A real eye-opening experience that inspired Nurmad to produce his own music. The first wave of early house and techno records from Chicago and Detroit influenced an entire generation. Nuron became one of the originators of the UK emotive techno sound with his unique and distinctive style. Fast forward a couple of years to when this compilation of archived DAT tape material was recorded. In the late 90s Nurmad was living back in Malaysia. House music was just starting to be played in the underground clubs over there. It was a great time and the vibe was very much like when Nuron went to raves in the UK in 1989-1990. House music all night long! Al White created all the graphic work. Mastered by Matt Colton at Metropolis.

Split #3 is the latest installment in the Split Series released by Overthink Records, showcasing a dynamic blend of techno and EBM from talented producers. This record features two sides, each offering distinct yet complementary styles.

Writing about techno is quite difficult without falling into cliché: there are only so many ways that you can saysomething about a music whose core elements are forged on deliberate repetition; where real talent is attributedto those who can find the perfect groove where nothing needs added or subtracted to hold the listener’s attention for upwards of five minutes.Such tracks are the hallmark of Tresor’s catalogue, and this joy in repetition can be found in works from Detroit,Berlin, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and more. And it is through this lens that Parisian artist, UFO95, focuses hisoutput, resulting in Backward Improvement, an EP that sits perfectly in the spectrum of techno found in theTresor chronology.The title itself makes an abstract reference to the influence of the classics of the genre, inspiring him to take adistinct less-is-more approach to production for this collection of stripped-down yet unrelenting techno chiselledfrom the live set which has fixed UFO95 as one of the next holdfasts for the future of the scene.Perhaps it is the fact the UFO95 only performs live that had led to such crisp and focussed studio productions.;each of the tracks showcase the artist’s burgeoning talent for creating the essential foundations of techno;perfect, looping, instinctual grooves that are counterbalanced by an apprehensive tension from off-key tones.Backward Improvement marks the addition of a new name in the list of techno’s best producers and proves thatwhile the genre may now be in its 40th year there are yet sonic explorations to be made and variations that areworth unearthing.
