Having spent plenty of previous tape-spooling minutes shored up at Hospital Productions (as well as Opal Tapes, Silvox and More Records), Exoteric Continent return once more with their gritty, industrial-flavoured techno that edges more towards sonic dread than dance music. The tightly-pressed rhythms tumble out in unforgiving arrangements that lay monochrome textures on heavy and let the drum machines call the shots. There’s space of course for more contemplative production as well, but it still comes daubed in battleship grey for the darker kind of hardware head. That there is so much atmosphere and tension in the music tells you just how skilled the Barcelona-based duo are in their craft.
