Shoal

Advanced deep driving techno from Amsterdam! JP Enfant's LET Recordings continues to slowly but surely build a fine reputation, and in fact his last EP on the label featured a track, 'Sirens', which got used to great effect by Daniel Avery on his acclaimed DJ Kicks mix. Now a fourth interesting EP on LET Recordings comes from Shoal, who makes his first out on vinyl after a digital release on Planet Rhythm in October.

Utrecht based Shoal aims to balance his techno sounds somewhere between rhythmic hypnosis and detailed soundscaping. He urges listeners to twitch out of their comfort zone and to really engage with his music. That is made all the more easy given that it is such inventive stuff. A powerful EP from this emerging new artist.
