Review: Dutch label Dynamic Reflection has always excelled at releasing tough club techno - and Transient Response is no exception. Hertz Collision, who impressed last year with the Nowhere EP on the label, kick starts this split release with the raw drums and insistent riffs of "Loaded". A Thousand Details, who runs Reaktivate Records, delivers the heads-down, pumping "Apollo 12", while US producer Uun opts for a more atmospheric approach as he delves into Detroit techno for the hypnotic "Chrysalis". Finally, Stratum re-focus the release on harder sounds with the clicking percussion and gnarly bass of "A Fraction of Time". As Transient Response demonstrates, few labels do banging techno better than Dynamic Reflection.
