Drumcode veteran Oscar L joins forces with Metodi Hristov, a newer recruit to Adam Beyer's revered techno label, for their collab two-track EP 'Gravity'. Madrid's techno/tech house maestro Oscar L has a long association with Beyer's twin labels Drumcode ('Again' LP, 2023, + performing at DC events) and Truesoul inc. solo EP 'Vulture' (2022), Dosem collab 'Aircargo' EP (2023), 'Yapper' with Max Styler (2024). As well as Adam Beyer, Oscar's had support from Richie Hawtin, Nicole Moudaber, Joseph Capriati... and also released on Knee Deep In Sound, Stereo Productions, We Are The Brave et al. Bulgaria-based Metodi Hristov brought his unique techno sounds to Drumcode last year, with his debut DC 2-track EP 'Build To Destroy'. Both tracks, title track and 'Flatline', were included in his Sept 2024 Drumcode Radio Studio Mix live from Sofia. With support including Carl Cox and Enrico Sangiuliano, Metodi's career is swiftly up and coming. 'Gravity': the title track hurls itself into the fray with fast, heavy techno beats, reverb-rich growly hoovers, while a contrasting sweetly melodic chopped and processed female vocal holds it's own against a dystopian dialogue between two sinister machines in dark, distorted, industrial juddering synth. There's a lot going on, dark, powerful, and dance-demanding. 'Up & Down': full-on attack from the first nanosecond, with very fast beats, layers of percussion and a dark male voice intoning the title riff. An insistent, reverbing, 'hammered strings' synth melody competes with a melodic second voice, high and sweet bringing light to very dark shade. 'D'you feel it now... ', you surely will.Tracklisting:A. GravityB. Up & Down
