Blawan and Pariah’s Karenn project has remained very much a compelling fixture within the contemporary techno community largely off the back of their live hardware performances in clubs and festivals and a smattering of remixes. This has allowed the pair to gloss over the fact it’s been some two years since we saw some original Karenn material, but you shouldn’t fault artists for choosing to work at their own pace. This three track return, the sixth 12″ issued on their own Works The Long Nights label, retains the trademark hardware-produced approach of previous Karenn material but does feel somewhat lighter and more playful in tone. No where is that more evident than the trumpeting synths that fluctuate with intensity throughout the barrelling abstract techno rhythms of “Nelly”.
