Review: Umek is best known nowadays for big room house and techno, but long before he had embarked on that route, he was synonymous with underground electronic music. In particular, the Slovenian producer gained acclaim for his unrelenting minimalism as Consumer Recreation and the Zeta Reticula project, which merged electro and dub techno. Although the latter project has been on hold for over a decade, this seventh instalment shows that Umek has lost none of his magic. "Chromospheric Activity" is an atmospheric stepper that features eerie synths, while on "13000 Au From Our Sun" and "A Common Motion Through Space", he draws on his industrial past to deliver tough, industrial electro bangers, led by steely percussion and visceral bass.
