Review: It's clear to all who follow electronic music with any level of regularity that Om Unit has become one of the most consistently impressive names to follow, with the last decade of work showcasing creativity and sonic innovation with every new outing. This latest 'Fragments' album project sees those talents again at work, from the moogy bass flicks on 'Snagged' to the icey soundscaping of 'Entity' and super sharp drum processing of 'Side Quest'. This album showcases mastery at work, with Om Unit again proving to be a level above those around him, with highlights including the colourful melodic squelches of 'Moonglade' and breaks-inspired energy-boosting qualities of 'Hard Skin'. Top work, as always!
Review: Originating from Bangalore, the duo Ashwin and Ashrith Baburao, collectively known as Audio Units, join forces to craft a compelling EP for Lady Tazz's Mind Medizin, featuring remixes by Ben Sims and Temudo. The EP starts with the powerful drum funk of 'Aristotelian Tradition,' showcasing warped synths, layered gritty percussion, and FX. Vocal snippets and textured pads enhance the groove, resulting in an uplifting sonic journey. Renowned UK techno figure Ben Sims, at the helm of the Machine party and label, provides a remix that intensifies the percussive energy, spotlighting synths and vocals with mesmerizing effects. Following is "I'm Just All You Need," a captivating fusion of fragmented vocals and pulsating synths layered over sturdy kick drums, creating a track that exudes urgency and captivates the dance floor. Tastemaker Temudo contributes a remix of 'I'm Just All You Need,' marked by stripped-back icy hi-hat loops and polished metal synth lines interweaving with minimal yet tribal techno drums. As a digital bonus, the EP concludes with 'Realm Dust,' a high-energy techno funk composition featuring paranoid and persistent synth leads that contribute to an unyielding tension throughout the track. The 'Aristotelian Tradition' EP stands as a dynamic release from Mind Medizin, seamlessly blending techno's dark allure with vibrant dance floor dynamics.
