Lowtec

Lowtec returns to Nonplus with his second release on the label and smothers us with his sonic art yet again.a) Lowtec ‘Coldred’ This piece of steel strong Berlin edged Tech house pumps along from the outset, leaving no doubt that this is one to get on and enjoy. As the title suggests, the cold dark eerie sound is built for warehouses and masterfully grows into a “Lost for words” type tune.b1) Lowtec ‘Darrynane’ ‘Darrynane’ is the first on the flip. Uncomfortable jittering beat compression is sketched into a subtle shift of swirling synths and vocal samples that drive this tune along on a hypnotic groove.b2) Lowtec ‘Twizel’ ‘Twizel’ is an attention grabber from the outset. The woodblock sounds and the evening session is in progress…then the synths lead and drift into a massive sound bomb of uber lusciousness, leaving the beat behind temporarily. Upon its return, the tune lifts into a late night heads down shoulder twisting groove monster…and when the Harpsichord drops, say “hi” to the hairs on the back of your neck.
