BEFORE WE RUN

Barcode 4250992801475 Stockholm techno luminary Pär Grindvik and Berlin based sensation Sylvie Maziarz team-up for a 5 track techno expedition, the ˜Before We Run™ EP, out on Second State. Pär Grindvik and Sylvie Maziarz join forces following the Swedish techno giant™s remix of Sylvie™s track ˜Increased™ in 2019. With an accomplished category of releases from Maziarz throughout the last two years, the rising Berlin artist and Berghain regular Grindvik unleash their thunderous 5 track collaboration with none other than the virtuous Second State. The EP launches with menacing strains and flurried hi-hats in ˜Bullet Tower™. Similarly to the other tracks on the EP, this cut narrates a story using a particular element, in this case the clattering bells and shuddering bass brooding throughout to create urgency, soon intensified by distorted acid lines. Next up is title track ˜Before We Run™, led by a ferocious heaving kick-drum and a bubbling vocal that ripples over the hysteria. Synth notes swirl throughout and gradually overwhelm the rhythm, before it bolts through and drives forward once again. The flip-side launches with ˜Utopia™. Driven by an unusual, wild percussion and drawn out foreboding synths, the duo commands focus with unbroken kicks against whirring beeps, tumultuous keys and jolting claps. Taking us on a trancey paradisiacal odyssey is ˜Circles™. Characterized by the subdued sample of a hospital monitor at thebeginning and end, with ethereal drawn out pads that take us on a journey between earth and the other side. The final track incorporates dense sonics to build to climax. Sharp synths rise and decline to drive you into a trance, while shattering kick and snare drums roll throughout, awarding ˜Light Storm™ its place as a definitive roller on this release.
