CYCLE

TRACKLIST A1: Cycle B1: It™s Funky INFO The Italian artist has been a stellar contributor to Drumcode since his debut in 2019 with the outstanding ˜Hypnosis™ EP. From the ˜System™, to ˜Recovery™ and his most recent EP offering ˜Yard™ in early 2022, we™ve been given a sense of his deft touch for crafting dramatic techno, that™s equal parts exquisite and dynamic. His latest work ˜Cycle™ reinforces the passion he imbues each production with. šThese two tracks perfectly express my vision of techno nowadays,› he shares. šNot fast, groovy, with researched sounds and a crazy impact on the dancefloor.› The title track balances tension and release on a knife™s edge, as it builds deliciously via a menacing array of synths, before dropping down into an all-out laser-focused march. A powerful cut that™s been a go-to for Adam Beyer at Awakenings, Loveland and Resistance Ultra in Croatia, among others. ˜It™s Funky™ was two months in the making and bring bags of energy and atmosphere as it explores funky terrain, not in the bottom end, but rather Veerus™ colourful approach to writing melodies. A great track for building excitement throughout a set.
