REVIEW

The twelfth release on Johannes Heil’s Exile imprint sees the veteran producer demonstrate his prowess. Of the two pieces, “Track 1” is the more conventional club workout; centred on slamming drums and a wiry rhythm, its support of crashing cymbals and niggling electronic riffs guarantee that it will become a weapon of choice for discerning techno DJs. More impressive still is the second, untitled piece: the drums are punchy and the rhythm jitters hyperactively, but it’s the siren riff that builds and builds throughout the arrangement that ensures it is one of the most distinctive peak-time tracks to appear in 2019.
