Tears 2 - (5:47)
136 BPM Tearstain - (3:48) 90 BPM
Review: Osaka's Ryuji Takeuchi runs Local Sound Network, an outlet for fierce (primarily his own) peak time DJ tools. On the Black Tears EP, it doesn't leave much to the imagination; it's all bleak and dystopian techno, just the way we like it! "Tears 1" is a raw and repetitive groove reminiscent of Regis' legendary Gymnastics album in the early nineties; all overdriven rhythm and grumbling Doepfer. The pounding 909 onslaught continues of "Tears 2" with its grating and hypnotic chime melody; it's totally off the chain! "Tears 3" hammers the message home with more bizarre Doepfer squeals, high hats hissing all over the shop like snakes and a body bashing broken beat. Things end on a mysterious note with the dark industrial soundscape of "Tearstain". Not for the faint of heart.
