A1 REM

Berlin (DE) based dj and producer Introversion gets released again on ARTS with the EP ‘REM’, four tracks pressed on vinyl that rediscover the rave side of techno music. All the songs melt raw drums with dreamy synth melodies or vocals, that’s mostly evident on ‘Myclonus’ where a nice female vocal is interfaced with a tiny pad sound: the strength of the low frequencies is boosted by the magic spread of the higher ones. The only track that detaches from the others is ‘Lucid’, in this Introversion uses a broken beat rhythm that gives more airness and brillance to the whole sound, in fact the synth game prevails and the melodies soar through the air.
