Irishman-in-Berlin Bren Gregoriy returns to Josh Wink’s label after 2014’s Tidal with two superb house tracks. The title track is redolent of Chymera’s melodic techno roots, but sounds more polished and assured. A surging bass and chiming cowbells provide the basis for crystalline synths, hissing percussion and dramatic woodwind. “Canavan Calling” is even more impressive; apparently inspired by a session with a Mini Moog, it revolves around a huge, dense bass which underpins thumb clicking percussion, chopped up, half-heard vocals and a building, droning riff. Once all of these elements are combined, they sound like a particularly malevolent version of Redshape.
