Rising Japanese duo Sudo debut on Drumcode with the inspired 'Real World' EP.The brothers Isao and Takashi - the former based in Berlin, while the other holds forte in their hometown region of Kansai in Japan - have been grafting away at their craft for many years, never compromising on quality, while eschewing trends. Instead, patiently creating and waiting for their opportunity. The duo remembers their first vinyl purchase from back in the '90s - a white label they'd later find out to be Underworld's legendary 'Rez'. It's from these incendiary roots that 'Real World' takes inspiration. A trio of tracks imbued with depth, subtly and impact. The title track is a deep barreling trancey composition and is trippy in nature, conjuring visions of the Underworld classic, while never losing a future-minded ethos. 'Construction' starts as a chunky slice of percussive techno, before a mesmerizing ambient interlude takes the track to another realm. 'Mercury' is a transcendental slice of tech-trance that's timeless in every sense. Bliss.
