Review: The latest release on Faut Section is a dynamic split EP. It opens with "Code Of Deception", a collaboration between label owner Lewis Fautzi and Norbak. Centred on a tough, stepping rhythm, it sees the duo factor in dubbed out percussion for maximum impact. Oscar Mulero's "Zw System" is more direct; it features a rolling, tribal groove, populated by a cacophony of frazzled percussion. Temudo's "Niiv" also makes use of metallic hi hats, but has a punchier feel, thanks to the use of dense kicks. "Time Domain" by Kessell pushes in an opposite direction: focused on a visceral bass and a stepping rhythm, it's a distinctive but functional affair.

Review: Mulero returns to his Polegroup label with a release that traverses the techno spectrum. "Flujo Fatal" is based on stripped back, stepping beats, which provide the veteran producer with a platform to conjure up a blanket of searing analogue textures. It's an intense, atmospheric piece. On "Nueva Y Oscura Era", Mulero's approach focuses on percussion; it sees him deliver a skeletal, rolling rhythm punctuated throughout by searing hi hats. In contrast, "Noches De Menta" is a straight pulsating workout that is reminiscent of Mike Parker's sub-tonal experiments. Mulero is to be lauded for keeping the listener guessing, and "Dos Esqueletos" is a wonderfully layered, dubbed out track.

Review: PoleGroup celebrates the 60th milestone in its catalogue with a superb three-track release from label owner Oscar Mulero. The title track resounds to billowing, filtered chords and chain mail percussion, with these contrasting elements underpinned by a lean rhythm. "Espectro Rojo" is more visceral and sees the veteran Spanish producer draw on the extreme end of Jeff Mills' canon to craft a loopy, linear affair. Rounding out this dance floor-focused affair is "Gradiente De Voltaje". More understated than the other tracks on the EP, its menacing, snaking bass and rolling, steely drums will still have the required impact.

Review: Although he is mainly associated with his own Warm Up or Pole Group labels, Oscar Mulero started his relationship with Token back in 2008. Now a decade later, the Spanish techno powerhouse is issuing Electric Shades, a sci-fi obsessed release on the Belgian label. "Echo" resounds to eerie bleeps and a subtle groove, while at the more visceral end of the Mulero scale is the rough, doubled up rhythms of "The Voyage" and the searing, Millsian "Violet Dust". Clearly Mulero is on a journey on this release as the dense, heads down "Chasing Shadows" recalls his loopy past, while he shows a more refined, tunneling approach on "The Cycle" and "Out Of Sight".
