Format: 12" Vinyl, Clear
Catalogue No.: TRUNCATE22CLEAR
Release Date: 28 Mar 2022
Genre: Techno

REPRESS: If powerful and percussive techno is your passion, it's likely that you already own a swathe of 12" singles from Los Angeles' producer Truncate (real name David Flores). It's also likely that you'll enjoy his latest EP, First Phase, which arrives in stores in limited numbers, on coloured vinyl. The two original tracks on show are naturally formidable workouts. 'First Phase' is a dense and murky tribal techno stomper, while 'The Eve' is a jacking, drum machine driven affair blessed with some intensely psychedelic acid lines. Former Truncate collaborator James Ruskin remixes that tune, turning a sharper, heavier and mildly wonky revision, while Luke Slater delivers a Planetary Assault Systems take on 'First Phase' that cloaks the producer's dense drums in spacey electronics and hypnotic synthesizer motifs.
